chickster25 Posted September 21, 2022 Report Posted September 21, 2022 Hi I have a saitek yoke and throttles and footpedals and have been using FSUIPC7 for the controls. I am using 7.3.8 Today I updated to SU10 and have found that they have stopped working. I loaded FSUIPC and I can see the numbers moving in the Joystick calibration screen, they are not moving in the Axes assignment screen, apart from very intermittently and then they will not move again. I have rescanned but cannot get them to work, so have changed to use MSFS controls for now.
John Dowson Posted September 21, 2022 Report Posted September 21, 2022 Please be patient. I am installing SU10 at the moment as well as the latest SDK and will be preparing a new release. I will look into specific issues once this is done. John
chickster25 Posted September 21, 2022 Author Report Posted September 21, 2022 No problem- just wanted to report the issue I had found with the new update. I am using MSFS controls for now so there’s no major inconvenience
gbFSUICP Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 Same problem here, axis control not working after SU10. Button controls still work. Using FSUICP 7.3.0.8.
DaveG Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 Just to confirm, I'm seeing the same. Button commands are ok, but not axis controls.
Agniparvata Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 Hi, Also a ProSim user here. I lost my toe-brakes couple of weeks ago, because I was trying out SU-10 beta. Unfortunately it is definitely an FSUIPC problem, as ProSim also allows running a Simconnect only mode, where the problem does not happen. But I - and many other users - simply cannot run in Simconnect mode, because many of our throttle-quadrants depend on a script, based on FSUIPC offsets. Please, if possible, make it a priority, as this small problem rendered our home-cockpits unusable. Thanks in advance
John Dowson Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 I have released a new beta for SU10, including an updated WASM. Full installer available from: Install FSUIPC7-7.3.9f Any issues, especially with axis controls or using offsets, please report the aircraft and axis control or offset used. There may still be issues with the *_Ex1 axis controls - I have not tested these yet but will do so shortly. John
DaveG Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 Hi John, Using 7.3.9f, default Cessna 172. Axis commands do not work if assigned as "Send to FS as normal axis". This goes for aileron, elevator, throttle, rudder etc. I've tried both "axis aileron set" and "aileron set" etc. The axis does work if assigned via "Send direct to FSUIPC calibration", but only after either reloading the flight or restarting FSUIPC. Hope this helps.
errek Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 Hi John, Using7.3.9f, PMDG DC-6. Axis...Set commands do not work if assigned as "Send to FS as normal axis". Tested Aileron, Elevator Elevator Trim, Rudder, Left Brake, Right Brake. Error of type: 19829 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 4832, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=65763 (AXIS_AILERONS_SET), data=0 19875 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 4834, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=65763 (AXIS_AILERONS_SET), data=97 See attached log. Axis Set Ext 1 commands works for Throttle Axis 1 to Throttle Axis 4 and Prop Pitch Axis in "Send to FS as normal axis". Aileron, Elevator Elevator Trim, Rudder, Left Brake, Right Brake works in "Send direct to FSUIPC calibration" but Elevator trim axis also controls Elevator (Elevator does not control elevator trim...). Restart of FSUIPC needed after changed assignment. Erland FSUIPC7_prev.log
Elad Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) Hi John On SU9 I used the axis throttle 1/2 set on the PMDG -sent to FS as normal Axis + Reverse at joystick calibration tab After installing ver 7.3.9F, if i set the axis on clean INI file, it works until i am going to joystick calibration tab and hit the SET option, then the axis freeze in MSFS and i cant move it , till i will delete the INI and start all over again. BTW one more wierd thing if restart the FSUIPC is starts move again if going to joystick calibration tab it works till i press the SET this is part of the log 184532 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 10560, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=66420 (AXIS_THROTTLE1_SET), data=-4498 184547 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 10561, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=66420 (AXIS_THROTTLE1_SET), data=-5429 184563 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 10562, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=66420 (AXIS_THROTTLE1_SET), data=-5911 184563 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 10563, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=66420 (AXIS_THROTTLE1_SET), data=-6682 184579 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 10564, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=66420 (AXIS_THROTTLE1_SET), data=-7068 184594 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 10565, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=66420 (AXIS_THROTTLE1_SET), data=-7678 184610 Exception 1 "ERROR", Ref 10566, Index param 2 on TransmitClientEvent, object=1, id=66420 (AXIS_THROTTLE1_SET), data=-7999 Edited September 22, 2022 by Elad
John Dowson Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 Ok - this error was also reported when using 7.3.8 with SU10, so it certainly something that has changed in MSFS or the SDK. Strange I haven't seen it here yet, and I have tried several aircraft both sending to FS and direct to calibration. I will test further - and check I have packaged and uploaded the correct version... But this will be tomorrow now... John
Cloud8.5 Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) Thanks for help and redirecting to this postings. The issue is the same that i am able to recognize the RAW Data of axes in FSUIPC 7 and able to asign, but since that evening after the newest Update oft MSFS2020 in the Aircraft nothing happens! No axis move. I guess SU9 and 10 means SoftwareUpdate or an Aircraft? Never heared before. I'm curious if this can be solved! Setting axes in the MSFS2020 is nonsense. - reg FSUIPC7 connected - able to see, set and adjust axis - msfs2020 = No axis move!! Edited September 22, 2022 by Cloud8.5

Cloud8.5 Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 Ok got it. Thank you for that. The thing is that MSFS2020 is forced to import updates without a Choice. No Stress. Thank you, appreciate it.
John Dowson Posted September 22, 2022 Report Posted September 22, 2022 I've tested in the Asobo A320 and get similar errors if I assign using 'Send to FS as normal axis' and then calibrate. If I assign and don't calibrate, the axis work fine (just tried throttle at the moment, will check others tomorrow). If you remove the calibration, it still doesn't work until you restart FSUIPC7, which is also very strange. Assigning 'Direct to FSUIPC calibration' and calibrating also seems to work. So can those who have assigned an axis to 'Send to FS as normal axis' check the calibration tabs for those axes and remove any if set. If using profiles, check the profile specific checkbox first (if not already checked and inactive). Then exit FSUIPC7 and restart to see if that helps. I will continue looking into this (and the other strange issues mentioned) tomorrow.

For this issue, can you also check and remove any calibration (that may still apply if using scripts), as well as using the latest beta. If its still an issue, I will need to see a log and the script you are using.

If its still an issue, I will need to see a log and the script you are using. Hi John, Thanks for the answer. The script is for a THQ in this case and it becomes only important WHY we can't use ProSim's Simconnect-mode, that doesn't have the toe-brake problem. So although I can attach a SIOC script, but it has nothing to do with the matter. It is the STOCK ProSim Toe-brake (that is a lever) that is NOT working, similarly not working for other people who use very different THQs and scripts. I will try to produce a log, but I already had a thorough look when the problem first appeared and found nothing related. I will try it again. It is seemingly connected to so changes that Asobo made in SU-10, somehow the changed variables because they introduced a visual effect related. (if I'm not mistaken for the brakes, it is the vanilla 0x0BC4 and 0x0BC6) offsets that ProSim employs) regards Agni

I seems that the elevator trim handle actually moves the control column of the DC-6. I always have the gust lock engaged when setting the initial trim for take off so the control column doesn't move doing this. In flight I don't normally look at the controls when trimming. That's why I have not seen this before. Tried the Just Flight Warrior III and the elevator trim behaved as expected. Erland

John Dowson Posted September 23, 2022 Report Posted September 23, 2022 @Agniparvata Do you have ini parameter AxisCalibration set to Yes, or DirectAxesCalibs set to Yes or All? Those offset use the Axis Left/Right Brake Set controls, so I will check them here (both with and without calibration, and via the offsets). However, please note that those controls (and therefore offsets) no longer provide a linear brake axis (if it was working!). From the documentation: Quote Note that this is on a non-linear scale: -16383 = 0% -8191 = 8% 0 = 27% +8191 = 53% +16383 = 100% There are new linear brake axis control, but unfortunately these are not currently accessible/useable via 3rd party apps (SimConnect). I will raise a bug report for this, and once added I will switch to using these linear controls, or maybe add a new ini option so the user can decide which should be used (via the offsets). John

The Axis Left/Right Brake set controls are no longer working in SU10, and as that is what the offsets use, that will be the issue. There is nothing I can do about this at the moment ecept report to Asobo/MSFS. Sorry about that. John
