Hi there, since a few days, I have a strange problem with the NGX, which I never had before in any plane in FSX. After using the 737 for a couple of years without any problems, some days ago most of the buttons and swichtes in the VC stopped working. They are ignoring basically my mouse clicks. The coursor changes to the hand symbol, but nothing happens if I click or scroll with the mousewheel. To make it a bit more complicatet, thats the case with a lot of switches, but not with all. On the EFIS for instance, all pushbuttons like terrain, data or also the traffic and standard pressure knobs are working fine, but the scroll knobs can´t be used. On the MCP not a single switch or butten can be used. All capped swichtes on the overhead are unusable, but rotary switches like the autobrake are working completely fine. But it gets even more strange. And at this point, I have absolutely no idea how this could be possible. I have found one single repaint (wich is the Angle of Attack repaint for the 738WL) where everything and every switch is working normal. Only if I install this repaint and only if I choose this repaint in FSX, all switches and knobs in the VC are useable. If I load another repaint (even the standard PMDG repaint) or if I switch to another repaint after loading the NGX with the Angle of Attack repaint first, the same problem occurs again. This hole thing is the case with all models from 600 to 900, with the exception that the AOA Repaint only fixes the problem on the 800WL (They have also repaints for the 600 and 700, but if I use those, the switches still don´t work on these models.) If use the NGX at its lates version on WIN7 64 bit. Does anybody have an idea, what could be going on here? Thanks and best regards, Schmo

Hi Guys Looking at doing a basic control panel to work with FSX I had an old joystick that I took apart and cut the little buttons off and added a Car Toggle Switch 9 out of the 10 toggles worked. I looked on ebay last night and found this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/No-Delay-Arcade-USB-Encoder-PC-to-Joystick-for-MAME-JAMMA-Arcade-Game-Controls-/171189189992?pt=UK_Video_Games_Coin_Operated_MJ&hash=item27dbabbd68 So I bought 2 of them! My plan is now to build the full panel to operate Lights etc using this device, my question is, is it simply a case of attaching a 2 pin toggle switch onto one of the Button Pins on the PCB and setup FSUIPC to control it? I also bought an LED Toggle Switch which is also 12v 4pin, 2 for On / OFF and 2 for Power for the LED, can I just wire up a 12v adaptor to the toggle without affecting the actual motherboard? Cheers

Sorry if this has been mentioned already, but I couldn't the answer in the forums and I didn't see it in the manual.... Is it possible to assign one command to two buttons -- pressed simultaneously -- on a joystick with FSUIPC? Basically, I'd like to reassign the trigger button (which it seems is often used for brakes) as a kind of Shift or Control key for other buttons on the joystick. The idea is to be able to perform actions by simply just pressing the trigger and then another button with one hand and thus not have to use my other to press a separate key on the keyboard, which something I know how to do already. Hope that makes sense. Thanks!
