HID devices config not found

Featured Replies

Hi there fellow code architects. :smile:I've installed LINDA 1.02 now but I can't get LINDA to recognize my joystick setup properly. Running a Logitech G940 here and all I get is this screen.lindajoystick.jpgWhen running FSX the console states HID devices config not found and Joysticks disabled!.I've tried it with the suggested deleted FSX and FSUIPC assignments and without that step.Speaking of this one.

LINDA does not need any assignments through FSUIPC for Joysticks or MCP Combo (just for Axis) so you should make sure that the current MCP Combo and Joystick assigning with FSUIPC get deleted in the FSUIPC4.ini.Also does LINDA not need any further LUA scripts inside modules folder as you have them probably nowBest way then is to Backup your complete Module folder!After that, you could delete all your LUA and FSUIPC macro files for several addons as this would be covered now by LINDA. After that, delete in your FSUIPC4.ini every Joystick-Buttons entry:[buttons] and for every addon, e.g. [buttons.A2A_Spitfire]You can also delete things like[VRInsight.FMER][LuaFiles][MacroFiles]
And this.
Working with FSUIPC (or now with LINDA) means that you have to make sure, that you have your Joysticks not assigned also in FSX.To delete all FSX Joystick assignings at once, do the following:• Open your FSX folder (where your FSX.cfg is in) (normally C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX) Maybe you have enable hidden files and folders. Please search in Google to activate them• Open now in the FSX folder the folder „controls“ • Open Standard.xml with Editor or Notepad• Scroll down till you see your Joysticks, e.g.<Name>Saitek X52 Pro Flight Controller{2A5740B0-D7E8-11DF-8006-444553540000}</Name> and <Name>Saitek X52 Pro Flight Controller SLEW {2A5740B0-D7E8-11DF-8006-444553540000}</Name>• Now delete everything between this entry and </SimControls.Map>• Save Now you have deleted all Joystick assignings at once!
I've tried to run it with and without the Logitech Gaming Soft, but if seems to fail to recognize the three units (Joystick, Throttle, Pedals) there.The LINDA.exe is running as admin and I can see the joystick in the windows dialogs and also the FSX ones when trying to e. g. calibrate it.

Why not just to fill empty fields with what you want there to be? What you see is looks like LINDA just failed to set the names and types automatically, but it does recognize the devices themselves.1. Fill the empty fields, set types2. Save settings

My thinking was that some sort of assignment has to take place there. So e. g. the cryptic 046DC2A80 is assigned to the name "Joystick" and also type "Joystick".But I will try entering some names and report back.I think the sentence in the manual

Everything should be setup up properly already.LINDA is detecting your hardware and will name it automatically.
together with the screenshot without blanket fields made me think about some error taking place. :blush:In the screenshot, the device list shows names for the devices too while mine stay cryptic only.

G940 doesn't report the device names for some reason.. that's why this page looks so un-obvious. Fill the fields, test LINDA working and then make a screenshot of this settings page again for me -- I'll teach LINDA to recognize the G940 in the next update.

First of all, thanks for your very fast answers. :smile:You were right, filling in the blanks made LINDA happy now, she states that everything is ok, so I can proceed assigning stuff now. Thanks!lindajoystickfilled.jpg
