wiltzei Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 Hello, I've noticed a strange bug in the latest version (it may affect other versions as well). When you open the time preview window, flight controls stop working until you close the window and enter a menu. I've done my axis assignments in FSUIPC. I found out v5.124 from my cluttered desktop, and it seems to work normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P3D4.3 release -- not that FSUIPC will depend on you updating. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current FSUIPC version is fine. i'll download 4.3 overnight, check and make a new FSUIPC release tomorrow. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiltzei Posted July 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 A quick heads up, in 4.3 with the build 5.132, the controls freeze in the TP window, but are restored as it is closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, as always. FSUIPC doesn't process whilst the Sim is in a dialogue. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Are you saying, that processing wasn't supposed to work in 5.124? Can you post here the last released 5.124 build? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No version has ever processed whilst the Sim is stopped for a dialogue. Too many unwanted complications would ensure! Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's important for some users. TY for the programme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange, then, as the code which odes this has not changed at all, not since FSX version 1. Actually i've never seen a dialogue like that Time Preview one before. There's no way I can find of determining that is is amodal (i.e. allows everything else to continue) whilst all of the usual ones -- options settings, weather, map etc -- are not, they are modal. There's actually no difference i can find to detect that automatically. Can you tell me, what is the purpose of using the Time Preview window with the controls active? What are you actually doing which needs this? In interim version 5.132b which I shall release by the end of this week, i shall remove the dialogue check altogether and rely solely on the Start/Stop "state" notifications FSUIPC receives from P3D. The only reason I've not done this before is that there are periods during scenery loading where P3D (and FSX before it) sends "Start" notifications whilst "adjusting scenery objects" during scenery loading. Some of the things FSUIPC might be allowed or requested to do in such a period could be calamitous. For P3D4 I can deal with the initial loading of the Sim -- the new PDK does give proper notification that the sim has completed loading. But it isn't easy to deal with the reloading of scenery such as when loading a different Scenario. I've lodged a query / error report with L-M on this point, because if they got that right the coding would be a deal simpler. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiltzei Posted July 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 I do videos. TP is nifty for casual simming as well. Great service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
