Lost recognition of device, again....

[C2615]

Part1:

So I have added a new device (vector one rudder) 2 weeks ago and flown with it for at 2~3 legs in P3D(and far more in other sims) without issue.

OK, no big deal, restart P3D, not good, restart PC, no good, unplug all joystick, start P3D, plug them back one by one, all others work, but not MJOY32. (again, hardware works fine as well as in other games, even in P3D's own input system and linda 

(EDIT: I realize all my previous flight this device is assigned by LINDA, so it could have been failed in FSUIPC as soon as new rudder added)

Today I noticed my homemade MCP (MJOY32) not working in FSUIPC again.

Under frustration I start MMJoy configure tool and update it's firmware VID and PID form 8888,8888 to 7777,7778, reconnect, and now it recolonized, reassign the joy Letter and after 2 hours I'm finally ready to go.

BUT, in the middle of flight, after pushback, I noticed some other device have wrong letter assign, so I went to ini and changed that, reload button, and take off.

Then I noticed my MJOY32 stopped been recognize again.....

Tried rename it back to 8888,8888 (thus I don't need to reconfig my other games anyway.) still no good....

I don't understand why you keep messing around so much with your devices and creating such a mess. Looking at you registry, you have all these entries:

and the log file is reporting duplicate ids:

You need to do exactly the same as I suggested the last time this occurred - clean your registry and update the GUIDs to the new ones on your assigned JoyLetters, and remove the other entries.

Sorry, but I just don't have time to look at this in any more detail at the moment (and I am on holiday from the 2nd - 7th April). I can help again sometime later next week, but I am just too busy to look at this in detail at the moment.  Go over the last post and try and understand what you did to resolve it the last time.
Report back after the 8th AApril if you require further assistance.

I tried delete their reg and restart, reconnect, works now, no duplication in log, but joyscan still gives 2 of them each.

I thinks it might be a firmware problem? but I can't see anything wrong in the firmware setting tool

And It doesn't seems cause any issue in anything other than FSUIPC, windows doesn't show any duplicate device. Any other game, including default P3D and LINDA doesn't have issue using both device, 

Not sure if it'll cause problem again down the line then....

[John Dowson]

It shouldn't be an issue as they have different GUIDs.
Glad you managed to sort  this out yourself!
