My apologies in advance if the answer to the question is obvious or easily found - it's just that I haven't found it so far. I'm a newcomer to X-Plane and that means there's a lot of information coming at me at once, so there's a good chance I've missed some of it.The question: is it possible to save different joystick sensitivity curves and stability settings with different aircraft? I'm finding that different aircraft benefit from different settings, and it would be nice to be able to load and go, rather than re-tuning the joystick by hand each time. The latter isn't a huge burden, just a mild inconvenience, but being able to avoid the step would be better.I'm aware of X-Assign and am in the early stages of using it. But as far as I'm aware, it only saves axes and button settings. I'd like to be able to do the same for the joystick response - in roughly the same way that you can do it in FSX using the profiles in the payware version of FSUIPC.Am continuing to find good things in X-Plane 10 now that I've got the full version loaded - will try to post some impressions later.In the meantime, thanks for any light you can shed on the joystick question.

Yes, it is possible.

Yes, it is possible.

Oh, that's very cute. Is this the latest entertainment here? The X-Plane enthusiasts are going to be niggling little grammar critics?Or are you going for the Simon Evans award?Simon, by the way, for all his personal style, is quite knowledgable and often extremely helpful. He may be abrasive but I don't recall his ever going this far out of his way just to score points in some petty ego display. He, nevertheless, managed to get himself banned here. How 'bout you?If you're not about to answer the question (which is quite clear from context), then as we say in Zen, sit down and shut up.If anyone else is willing to operate in the spirit of the Avsim forums, I'm more than open to listening and would be glad to know how I can save different joystick sensitivities for different aircraft.If others follow Goran's approach, on the other hand, I'll be happy to spend my dollars in the FSX arena. Goran, who holds a commercial badge, might want to keep in mind the commercial effect he's having there.Good day to you, sir.

I'm going back on my own word and elaborating.It's actually not as cut and dry as you might think. There is a method to do it, and it will take about 5 seconds for each aircraft.Set up your calibration. Go into your "Output" folder and zip your preferences folder and label it according to the aircraft you are setting it for. You can keep the zipped folder in there. Do the same for each calibration.If you don't want to zip anything, copy the folder and paste it and rename it to the aircraft you are saving it as in a specific folder. I prefer to save it in the actual aircraft folder and then copy and paste the new preferences in the Output/preferences folder. There is no automated way to do it. This is the only way I have found.Before you go and start chastizing people, and telling them to "sit down and shut up" (and they call ME aggressive), you may want to show some patience.

Hi Alan,I found this answer on another website. I hope this might be useful.Set up the buttons and axes for one type of aircraft, then exit X-Plane and make a suitably named copy of the main X-Plane preferences file. Go back into X-Plane, make your next stick setup... lather, rinse, repeat... To use a particular stick setup, copy the appropriate prefs file back to the main one before starting X-Plane. Sorry, there's no way to switch setups inside X-Plane.

Thank you for the explanation - it's extremely helpful and exactly what I was looking for. The fact that the answer isn't obvious makes it particularly helpful - and also makes me wonder why you couldn't have just taken the trouble to provide it in the first place. If you had, we wouldn't be having a dispute. I'm not sure what "word" it is you've gone back on but I'm not sure it's particularly defensible.As for aggression - you're actually playing one of Simon's lesser games here. You provoke others into immoderate responses and then chastise them for their lack of moderation. It's an undergraduate move - clever and shallow.By the way, "sit down and shut up" isn't necessarily aggressive. It is, however, clear and comprehensible. It's also Zen. More here.

airlinejets -Thanks very much for your reply and for the information.Can you point me to the website where you found this? Not urgenly necessary since your explanation (and Goran's as well) includes all the necessary information. I'm just interested in find out what resources I missed (and how) since my own search didn't turn up anything.Thanks again!

here you go Al,http://home.earthlin...-Joysticks.htmlApparently, Austin has been made aware that a lot of people would appreciate this feature, in-game. He agrees. So, it should eventually be included in an update.

Oh, right. You've been helpful to the deserving but you're a very important person with many demands on his time so now you're withdrawing your support. You don't have time to be helpful but you do have time to be a provocateur. Whatever feeds your ego. Spare me.Again - good day to you, sir.

Thanks again - good to know that there'll be a more accessbile way to do this at some point - though the current workaround seems easy enough once the steps are explained.I appreciate your help.

Feed my ego? Are you kidding?What a ludicrously, absurd post.When have I asked for anything in return? When have I proclaimed myself to be all high and mighty. When have I said I am the king of x plane support?Really. Some people are so baffling, it's intriguing.

Dude, I came here to ask a straightforward technical question.I'm not the one who turned the thread into a psychodrama via a snippy non-answer, followed by a melodramatic declaration about going back on my word.There are many ways to spotlight an ego. These are a few of them. No declarations of grandeur are needed - it's all implied.By the way, "ludicrously absurd" doesn't take a comma.Good night.Moderators - please close this thread. The question has been asked and answered. The rest is noise.Thanks.

And you call ME melodramatic.Thank you for noting my grammatical error. Another person trying to police the grammatical errors of our ways.Get a life..."dude"

Google "irony."You know, if you'd either answered my question or ignored it, there wouldn't have been a dispute. So, well done. Good work. Moderators - lock, please.

Just in case no one can answer your [email protected]'m sure they'll be happy to provide you with all the support you need...complete with correct grammar.Have a great day/night!

Thanks to Wowee for this link in another thread - this utility allows you to save your button/axis preferences per aircraft - try this until Austin comes out with his official version - it doesn't do sensitivities that I can see, but I haven't really played with it much. It does the buttons and axis assignments for sure though.http://forums.x-plan...&showfile=12551
