Calibration and assignment loss

[Rick S.]

Good morning.  I'm running 2 Saitek flight yokes, a set of rudder pedals, and  a dual set of throttles.  All wires on the 2nd flight yoke are cut except for the yoke itself.  I use it at as tiller (had an extra yoke).  For some reason FSUIPC will occasionally scramble all the assignments and calibrations of my setup.  I can find no underlying reason.  The GUID of the devices should not have changed.  Has anyone else experienced this issue?  Thanx

You should have attached or pasted your settings file (the FSUIPC INI), as we could probaly help more positively seeing what you have.

Very relevant information includes whether this is the same for all aircraft, whether you are using Profiles, and, probably most significantly, whether you're using Joy Letters (letters assigned instead of numbers).

Oh, and have you updated Windows or unplugged devices, as both can change IDs assigned. This is what "Joy Letters" is meant to get around.

Yes, I think Windblows updated on me.  I hate the fact that you are forced to take the update whether you want it or not.  I'll check into the Joy Letters per your suggestion....
