P3D V3.1 & Mouse Look Issue


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Since P3DV3.1 (and the latest FSUIPC version installed), I am having this strange problem when using mouse look function (using center mouse button to pan view around the cockpit). It seems that when letting go of the middle mouse button, it still pans around the cockpit, I have to press the middle button a few times to make it stop panning around. 

I tested on P3DV2.5 and FSX and dont have the problem when panning around in the VC? 

Anyone else having this problem?

thank you!

Is this the FSUIPC mouse look option, or the one in P3D itself?

 

Have you been to the P3D support forum? I have noticed a number of reports of problems with mouse click recognition in 3.1. Possibly this is one of those? FSUIPC itself won't be doing anything differently. Might be worth reporting over there?

Hi Pete,

yes it is the FSUIPC mouse look option. I will try the P3D support forum, hopefully they can do something on their end. thank you for getting back to me!

 

I've had a chance to try this here, and I don't get any problems like that at all. Mind you, I don't have any aircraft with complex cockpits.  In fact I don't use an on-screen cockpit at all since I have a hardware one.

 

But I did try with a few of the default aircraft cockpits and again no problems. Are you perhaps using a complex add-on aircraft? Try with a default if so, just to make sure. It may well be something to do with the way the gauge system is interrogating mouse positions for their switch operations and so on. I seem to recall reading something similar somewhere on the L-M support

forums.

Hi Pete, 

Yes it also happens with the default aircraft. It seems that when I pan around the cockpit and if I stop precisely on a gauge with a function (showing the hand instead of the mouse pointer), and let go of the middle button, it will continue panning around if I move the mouse. I also noticed that the panning is not as smooth as it used to be. I am wondering if this is related to my system as nobody else has been complaining about the issue. I just spent days installing all my add-on and I would hate having to uninstall everything again and start from scratch, although it might be the only way at this stage

best regards,

John.
