Help with adding aircraft to FSUIPC profiles

Featured Replies

Hello,

I am setting up my 737 NGX in P3dV4 and using FSUIPC registered version to assign controller buttons etc. I have succeeded in  doing all that but find that when I load a different livery/variant from the one that I had loaded when I programmed everything in FSUIPC with a profile specific box checked for the 737 NGX [I have about 10+ of these for the 800/900 models,], that the button assignments do not work. I discovered that if I load that  different  livery and then  go into FSUIPC, enter the buttons  tab and check the Profile Specific tab, and choose new based on 737 NGX profile I had already created, everything will work fine with the new livery.

 

But there must be some easier way than to have load all of these different liveries/variants one at a time and then go into FSUIPC and check the box. Am I missing something? I did not see this scenario covered in the manual for FSUIPC.

 

Thanks

Well, to be honest, this is the PMDG support forum, not the FSUIPC forum. 

 

But as far as I understand, it doesn‘t recognize a KLM 737-800 on its own after you‘ve assigned a profile to an American Airlines 738? As examples of course... that‘s normal. Some aircraft are recognized automatically, some aren‘t. If you find your controls bot working, check that FSUIPC knows which airplane you are using. (Open it, check the profile checkmark and profile name, click ok/apply, not cancel). Oh and make sure your FSUIPC at the latest version. 

For further going questions or problems you really should ask its developer for help.

Look in the FSUIPC for Advanced Users document in your FSUIPC documents folder (under the Modules subdirectory in the main P3D foider).  The sections you want to read up on are on the use of profiles and short names.  FSUIPC does have facilities to define controls (buttons, keys, axis assignments, and calibrations) for a group of acft, either explicitly defined, or by using a substring of the acft title (e.g. any acft with "PMDG 73" in the title)

Thanks Bob. Looks like that is the resource I am looking for.
