Assigning letters to Devices problem

[Ray Proudfoot]

Hi John,

I've been assigning letters to devices for years but this problem has me beat.

I have CH Pro Pedals as P; Fulcrum One Yoke as Y and Fulcrum One Throttle Quadrant as T.

The first two are fine. The TQ keeps showing as MISSING even though the entries in the csv file seem fine.

Can you throw some light on the problem please? The reason for the duplicate messages is because I changed the order thinking that might solve it. It didn't.

Hi John,

I'm still getting U=<< MISSING JOYSTICK >> in my ini file. I've  checked it but I'm struggling to find the wrong entries. It's attached. Any help gratefully appreciated.

Hi Ray,

I can't see anything assigned to device U - if you remove that entry, does it get added back?

You should also consider:
   - updating to the latest version if FSUIPC6, 6.2.1
   - using substrings for your aircraft profile names to catch all variants, rather than adding each variant/livery
e.g. change

and update all your [Profile.xxx] sections similarly, using substrings that will catch all variants of the aircraft

No it doesn't. Thanks. Just some left over entry from before.

I've updated to 6.2.1 and taken your advice to edit aircraft profiles. Much neater. Thanks. 😁
