AL HARPER Posted October 19 Report Share Posted October 19 I'm a volunteer at the Military History Museum in Broken Arrow Oklahoma . We have FSX install in the museum for veterans to use. Earlier this year it crashed. I have completely restored the computer and reinstalled FSX. Everything seems to be work ok. I have the Cessna 172 fully configured and flying. My question is, how do I configure another aircraft, such as the BeechCraft Baron Twin, with its own control settings. Recently I did start setting up the Beechcraft Twin so I could fly either the BeechCraft or the Cessna 172. After working on the Beechcraft for awhile I switched back over to the 172 to fly it for awhile, only to find its control setting were all screwed up. After much Googling a few nice gentlemen on flightsim.com finally came to the rescue. It appears FSUIPC is the answer. FSX by itself is not capable of configuring multiple aircraft on a single instance of FSX, you need FSUIPC to accom[plish this. Now that I've found FSUIPC I'd like to accomplish a few preliminary things before doing an install. Get the full documentation for FSUIPC so I can study it before hand. where can i get the docs? Next is FSUIPC the only utility in Mr Dawson's toybox that I'll need to accomplish this? For now, all I want to do is configure a couple of different aircraft for the veterans to train/play with. I may expand on this in the furture to a dozen aircraft if all goes well. Lastly, it appears I'll need to buy a license. I'm assuming when I attempt to install FSUIPC I'll be prompted for a trial or real license. Trial is nice, but in the end if all goes well I want to purchase a license. How do I do this? Via the install or SimMarket.com. I see SimMarket seems to be out of the UK and the price is listed in Euro, so I assume checkout will convert to USD $. I think this is all. Let me knmow if I have not thought of anything. Thanks Al Harper n4ida@cox.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted October 19 Report Share Posted October 19 First, if this is a charity or not-for-profit organisation, I will give you a free license - no need to purchase. If this is the case, please PM me the details so that I can verify, and I will generate a free license for you. You also mention FSX - you need FSUIPC4 for FSX. This is the forum for MSFS2020 / FSUIPC7. Please clarify which simulator you are using - FSX or MSFS2020? They are very different beasts... With FSUIPC, you use a system called 'profiles' to have different settings/assignments for different aircraft. Just download and install the relevant FSUIPC version for the simulator you are using. The FSUIPC documentation will also be installed, which will tell you how to use profiles. And if you are using FSUIPC7/MSFS2020, start with the trial license which you can download from a sticky-topic at the top of this sub-forum. There is no trial license available for FSUIPC4 / FSX.
