Problem with buttons not saving

[tekrc]

Hello, I have been trying to follow the manual in the Aerosoft F-14 for assigning button functions, but the changes do not appear to save. I make a change and hit ok, looking in the ini file the new button assignments do not appear nor do they function in the sim. running latest version from the site. using P3d v3 and v2. same issue in both. I did see another thread but his issue was solved on re install. mine was not

Sorry, you don't provide enough information. Maybe a log file and you settings (FSUIPC4.LOG and FSUIPC4.INI, from the Modules folder). You can paste their contents into a message here.

There are two button assignments, one which aplies to all aircraft (i.e. not specific to a Profile):

2 hours ago, tekrc said:

1=P2,29,C3,10     -{Custom control: <3>}-

This control number is not valid. not sure why you selected <custom control> in the drop-down list and then entered "3". There's really no possibility of that being a valid control.

The other is specific to the F14

2 hours ago, tekrc said:

0=P2,16,C0,222     -{Custom control: <0>}-

and again it isn't valid, for the same reason!

Both of these buttons are on the throttle device.

I think you'd better explain what you are doing, step-by-step, because what you've done makes no sense. And no way will FSUIPC simply lose assignments -- they are saved in the INI file as soon as you press "OK" (but not if you press Cancel or Escape, of course).

Note that with buttons and keys (not axes) general assignments apply also to profiles unless overridden. You select between them using the Profile checkbox on the Buttons tab.

You can also use Button/Key logging to check your actions. See the Logging tab.

I dont know what the custom control setting is from. never set 3 for anything. Im trying to assign lua functions for the f14 to buttons on my throttle. so all I did was go into fsuipc, set axes, save as profile, went to buttons and switches, select fs for control checked, press button on throttle, (in this case button 16) I check profile specific and select for FS control, enter parameter 222 (ifr probe toggle for the f14) and hit ok. when sim comes back and I use button 16 nothing happens. open fsuipc again to find it didnt save anything I just did. back to no assignment to the button, profile and select for fs control unchecked.

went to buttons and switches, select fs for control checked, press button on throttle, (in this case button 16) I check profile specific and select for FS control, enter parameter 222 (ifr probe toggle for the f14) and hit ok.

Er, parameter 222 for which control? There's no "control" called "222". You need to assign to a control -- there's a drop-down list! They are all named, NOT numbered! See the drop-down list, which is in alphabetical order.

Practice with a normal default aircraft first. I've no idea what your F4 is doing, but it can't use controls like "222"! Nor control 0 as you assigned here:

You assigned control 0 (non-existent) with parameter 222! That simply is nonsense. Sorry.

Here you contradict the above:

Im trying to assign lua functions for the f14 to buttons on my throttle

Lua assignments all start with "Lua <name of lua file>", in the drop down list.

Sorry, which manual? The only ones about Lua at all are the Lua documents in the separate package. The Lua support is an add-on extra with FSUIPC, it is not covered at all in the main User guide,

And in any case, how did you think FSUIPC knew what you meant? How would it identify your Lua program? Did it never strike you as odd assigning to nothing but a parameter? No control name, nothing?
