Hi there ik want to introduce myself to this forum as Sepp796

My name is Sebastiaan and i fly around in flightsims since fs 5.0.

Never online and never real active on forums, but with some user experience of wideview and Fsuipc

Got hooked and stuck on fs9, scraping together some left overs on scraps and monitors and some uprade in graphics cards. And the struggle continues! Lol. To build some homemade cockpit as cheap as positie for me. i fly projecting with a beamer 2.20 cm widescreen made out of cardboard, and a couple of screens for the instuments.

But for msfs it goes slightly different.

I has 3d cockpit and it looks real nice but, concearning programming buttons i miss something.

Specially for the switches. As long as they are active they continously repeat on/off on and on and on.

Fsuipc had the option of button programming the repeat function out.

I think microsoft had overlooked this part, in all the former sims it had sliders to choose how you wanted  to configure.

Anyway if someone knows, i like to know how it can be done, or maybe it will be there in an update or so.

WELCOME! to AVSIM.  Enjoy your stay.

I cannot answer you question regarding the buttons sorry.

I watched the video. That's a very creative use of cardboard for a wrap-around screen!🍻

Welcome to Avsim. 🙂

Might want to give this a look. Free trial available to see if it does what you want:

Hi there Chock

I checked out this program on simmarket to it looks nice for press button like if you pull a keyboard apart connect buttons to then and completely remap and assined them which i did already in te past.

Thing is, in msfs 2020 you can control setup of switches buttons and keys. Like in the former editions fsx fs9 etc, but they had sliders behind the mappings to rule in or out repeat if active.

Fsuipc had even more possibilities

This is missing in msfs 2020 and it looks like the switch goes on forever, until switched off, but than the leds do not sustain (little bit of eye-candy in the room without eating frames) yes i use home made device with bodnar boards. 

I also made the request and filed it over to zendesk.

 

By the way you have a nice collection of videos on you tube

It will taken me sometime to view the lot.

Thanks for the suggestions.

FSUIPC is in Beta for MSFS2020. It did what you want in FSX and earlier, I assume it will be able to in MSFS2020 when released.

(sorry, cannot link to it here, it's on a competing site, but a quick google for "FSUPC for 2020" will find it.

Another one coming shortly concerning how to make possibly the cheapest flight sim controller ever. Kind of fun to do. 🙂
