The last few days I tried to "play" with the Hvars with the options offered by FSUIPC7 (7.2.10 registered) to be able to have a list on the screen and be able to test them using the menu option "Activate Hvar ...", something very useful.
Today, after updating the A320 FBW with its installer, I wanted to do more tests but FSUIPC7 does not list any Hvars.

What may have happened?
Thanks

PS: the Lvars are still listed

hvars are only recognised by FSUIPC7 if they have been registered via an appropriate  *.hvar file, located either under the FSUIPC WASM installation folder or under your MSFS persistent storage area. See the Advanced User guide for details.

If the hvars were previously available and are no longer visible, this suggests that either the *.hvar file(s) matching the aircraft name has changed, or the aircraft name has changed and no longer matches the name of the aircraft you are loading.

So, please read the Advanced User guide so that you understand how hvars are recognised, and then check the folders. If you require further help, activate debug level logging in both the WASM and WAPI (instructions in Advanced User guide) and show me your FSUIPC7.log and FSUIPC_WASM.log files.

Thanks John, I simply changed the livery but was enough to create issues.

Here, FSUIPC7 list Hvars from C:\FS2020\Community\fsuipc-lvar-module\modules\A320.hvar

     8266 SimObjects\Airplanes\FlyByWire_A320_NEO\aircraft.CFG
     8281 User Aircraft ID 1 supplied, now being used
     8344 Aircraft loaded: running normally now ...
     8953 System time = 02/10/2021 17:49:44, Simulator time = 12:49:44 (15:49Z)
     8953 Aircraft="Airbus A320neo Easyjet NEO c/s"
     9531 Lvars/Hvars received - checking aircraft autos....

With same aircraft but other livery, Hvars from C:\FS2020\Community\fsuipc-lvar-module\modules\A320.hvar are not listed

     8281 SimObjects\Airplanes\FlyByWire_A320_NEO\aircraft.CFG
     8313 User Aircraft ID 1 supplied, now being used
     8375 Aircraft loaded: running normally now ...
     9031 System time = 02/10/2021 17:42:44, Simulator time = 12:42:43 (15:42Z)
     9047 Aircraft="FWB TAM"
     9594 Lvars/Hvars received - checking aircraft autos....

 

I solved updating Aircraft.cfg of the livery from: Aircraft="FWB TAM" to Aircraft="A320 NEO FWB TAM" and now FSUIPC7 list Hvars again.
Thank you so much, a very important thing to know.

In case I need to create two files:
A320.hvar
A320FWB.hvar
How should I go about getting FSUIPC7 to distinguish them?
Thanks

The WASM will load any .hvar files whose name is a substring match to the aircraft name, as reported in the log (from the aircraft.cfg file). So A320FWB.hvar wouldn't match, so use FWB.hvar or TAM.hvar, or even the full "FWB TAM.hvar".
