FSUIPC4 Issues with my joystick


Recommended Posts

Hello, So i just got back into flight sim after about 2.5 years, and i loaded my sim up, everything seemed to be usual, until i went to use my joystick and i couldn't look around at all using it. I use a logitech extreme 3D pro joystick that has a middle button that you could move around to pan around the cabin, and basically use it to look around at any point. My other buttons work just fine, so someone told me to purchase FSUIPC, which i followed through with hoping it would resolve the issue and unfortunately it hasn't. Any tips on how to fix this issue?

Hi,

if the Pan button doesn't already in FSX/ P3D work then the first step is checking in Windows Gamecontroller Settings that the Joystick works correct at all. If there is a hardware problem then FSUIPC cannot read this function either.

If the hardware is working correct, all axes, buttons and pan-view button, then attach your FSUIPC INI file to see what definitions you have done for the PanView button.

The Pan button is responsive anytime that i go to calibrate the joystick, and all the other buttons outside the pan button works fine. How do i find that INI file so that i can post it here for you to give it a look? sorry rather new to this whole thing after 2.5 years.

Hi,

FSUIPC4.ini file and FSUIPC4.log file are located in your FlightSim main folder, a subfolder there \Modules\

Best would be to send both files.

In case I have two of those Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joysticks here I can confirm they work correct with FSX-SE/ P3Dv3 and P3Dv4.

Hi,

I can say 2 1/2 years ago when I last flew on p3d v2 my joystick worked fine no problem. 

if it worked at the time without FSUIPC and it doesn't any more, then it sounds as I said like a hardware problem.

The files are in the folder, you have in folder settings Hide Full Name of known files (or Hide extensions of known file types ...) active. You need to change that in (your picture)

File->Folder and Search options

Start P3D and go to Add-ons, open FSUIPC -> click Logging. There select on the left 'Button and key operations'. Now Click 'Button and Switches' tab and operate the pan-view switch, then click OK to close FSUIPC. Close P3D, wait a moment and copy the files.

The files in the folder are FSUIPC4 (Configuration settings) and FSUIPC4 (Text document).

the log file shows the PanView buttons are definitely working correct.

In case nothing is assigned in FSUIPC to it, it doesn't do anything.

Check as well the Manual for button assigning.

After this entire time i realized it was the software ChasePlane that i use for camera switching inside and outside of my aircrafts. I had to set the pan button up inside of that program in order for it to work while it was running in the background. I really appreciate your help and assistance in getting towards the solution.
