fs9 and windows 10 with fsuipc registered

Pete

when I disable the joysticks in fs 2004, I get no response in fsuipc when the ch yoke is moved eg. ailirons, elevator or anything. I can't tell 

if fsuic is controling the yoke or fs 9 is doing it. How can I tell which program is controling yoke?

I do get a response in fsuipc when joysticks are enabled and was able to calibrate the yoke.

Thanks

If you want to ASSIGN axes in FSUIPC you must disable the controllers in FS. If you are NOT assigning axes in FSUIPC, then just leave controllers enabled in FS. Choose one or the other, but if they are not assigned in either how can you expect them to do anything?

Please do read some of the FSUIPC documentation some time.

I have read documentation but I'm still confused. When I disable the joysticks there is no response in fsuipc to set the axis. could you please explain to me how to set the axis for the ailerons. When I disable the joysticks in fs9 and then open fsuipc under the aileron set button are two boxes with 0 in them label in and out. when I move the yoke (ailerons) these numbers do not change. 

thanks

Where are you looking in FSUIPC's options? You need to be more specific. The assignment of axes is done in the "Axis Assignment" tab. 

If that is where you are looking, and there is no response, then your joystick device is not correctly registered in Windows. Is it a Saitek by any chance? Because their installers seem pretty bad.

If this is the case, please check the FAQ subforum -- the  thread "fixing joystick connections not seen by fsuipc/" is relevant.

But I should also ask -- why are you wanting to assign in FSUIPC? You do know you can calibrate joysticks in FSUIPC without assigning there. You can leave them assigned in FS. The most usual reason for wanting to assign in FSUIPC is for more flexibility, especially being able to create profiles for different aircraft using different controls for different aircraft types -- stick or yoke, for example.

My version of fsuipc does not have an Axis assignment tab. I have About , Winds,visibility,clouds,technical,logging,hot keys,buttons,keys,joystick tabs

ver 3.48

Yes I would like to make different profiles.

It's a ch yoke and it works fine in windows

is there an update for v3.48?

The only supported version 3 is 3.999, and this has been the case for over 4 years now! Version 3.48 dates back to April 2005, more than 11 years ago! There have been at least 15 major releases since then and many minor ones!

Until you update I'm afraid I cannot offer you any support.

I just got this  version from the market store (a week or two ago) . I hope I don't have to pay for the update.

You payment covers ALL versions 3.xxx. You are expected to keep up to date in oder to receive support as old versions cannot be supported.

Where do you mean by "market store"?  If you mean SimMarket, they don't supply the program, they just give you a link which takes you to the ZIP file which is actually hosted here, in the Download Links subforum. It currently links to an FSUIPC.ZIP containing

FSUIPC 3.999z9b Changes.pdf
Install FSUIPC.exe
Installing and Registering FSUIPC.pdf

That installer program installs version 3.999z9b.

I suspect you've installed some other old add-on which still overwrites newer versionso of FSUIPC (and possibly other things) with ancient versions which may have been current that many years ago, when your add-on was released.

You'll need to run the Installer you downloaded again.
