I am having difficulty assigning AXES with FSUIPC. Rather than trying to solve that I simply want to disable the ability of FSUIPC from controlling any axis. I do the rescan, more than once to clear the values, and move the target axis. Then click Ignore Axis. I look at FSX and the axis still moves. Try the same thing but click OK on FSUIPC and still the axis moves. All axis settings in FSX are clear so only FSUIPC should be controlling them. At this stage I just want to stop all FSUIPC handling of any axis but the Ignore thing does not seem to work???

I would suspect it's because the FSUIPC.ini file is read at fsx boot time, Dick, and the new settings won't be read, nor the old settings won't be deleted until the end of this session and the beginning of the next FSX session. What you change gets held in cached memory - same as any fsx.cfg changes you make.

 

FSUIPC comes with a listing of all FSX controls, and with a bit of reading, you can edit the ini file without running FSX, just by finding the section header, looking up the control axis, and then just deleting it.

 

Actually - expanding a bit - the same applies to the FSX controls. In your fsx.cfg there's a section called [Controls], and it indicates that the default controls file is called "Standard". "Standard" happens to be an xml file in the same folder as the exe.xml, the dll.xml and the fsx.cfg - C:\Users\{your login name}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX - all files which you can edit to your heart's content! (as long as you back them up first.....) :o

Thanks - FIXED! :rolleyes:
