The throttles don’t appear to work with the latest versions of XUIPC. Try downloading and installing an earlier one.

Ha ha, totally with you on this Torbjoern! Lua seems a step in the right direction though something I'll have to wait to play around with for now: work is getting in the way of the more important things in life!

Ditto Torbjoern! That's some setup..... Need to look into Lua then.... seems the way forward!

Mr MMerellles I'd also be very interested to hear about your Lua solution: there's a limit to what I can do with Xjoymap since I can only permanently assign functions to joystick and not keyboard.

Thanks Cameron - and the IXEG team - for the latest hotfix. Seven in such a short time since release is quite something! This really doesn't surprise me though: I've been following the IXEG blog for three years prior to release - enjoying Jan's fascinating videos about the various systems - and it has become very clear that the team are deeply passionate about this aircraft in a way I haven't seen before. I've got to say that it was enjoyable from the very first release - none of the bugs that have since been fixed marred my own flights to any great extent - and the support offered in terms of hotfixes and listening to customer feedback is a shining example of how a software developer should behave.

Hmmm.... Occulus Rift, new graphics card or keyboard with pretty pics.... Where should I spend my money?? ;-)

Hi Torbjoern, Came across this preference manager: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/33305-x-plane-10-preferences-manager/ Very handy as it saves copying key preferences files for each individual aircraft once it's all set up.

Switching Threaded optimization to OFF in Nvidia Control Panel eliminated stutters in my setup.

Torbjoen- Thanks for the update. A real pity as so much functionality is available but not "saveable" at present with my setup. My hope is that IXEG will continue to include more and more commands in future updates. (Control of EFIS and the lights being priorities for me)

Just getting better with every hotfix! Absolutely superb aircraft to fly...so immersive, so characterful. Great to see more datarefs being included. Please carry on doing this... there is a workaround using xjoymapper but there are some issues that prevent this from working properly with my own hardware setup. (See this thread: ) Thanks to Jan and the team for their ongoing superlative support!

Whooops here it is.... PythonInterfaceLog.txt

I feel I owe you a few beers now!! Attached is the log file. Loads of references to missing datarefs which is what led me to believe they were loading in the wrong order initially. I've tried deleting every single key from XP (backed first of course!) but still the same issue of it being changed to the hierarchical name. Will try a fresh python plugin.....

Still no success... Did as you suggested: can map the buttons easily but when I exit and reload XP the button ABOVE the previously selected one is associated with that particular key. To be clear: the button is now associated with the title of the secton, not with the actual button I chose in that section. Tearing hair out here!!!!

LOL quite so!! Is the format of tour ini file the result of using Notepad++? Am about to try it to see what happens. Not sure I understand how the *.xjm file works.... have created one and placed it in the aircraft folder but still need the normal xjoymap.ini to be there.....

Will check it. Very different format in your ini file to mine..... wonder why?!? I'm new to XP too: the IXEG is the aircraft that tempted me away from FSX/P3D! Lots of new ways of doing things which is all quite confusing but cool too. ;-)

Hmmm so just the same as mine... Will try removing all non-essential plugins and see if that fixes the issue.

Thanks. Will remove the redundant references to EHSI though tried this before - with just lights added - and that didn't work. Where do you place your xjoymap.ini btw? In the resources/plugin folder or in the aircraft one? When you say you installed XjoyMap.... do you mean you created a folder for it in plugins?

Sure: EFASS, Gizmo64 (for iXEG 737), Python Interface (obviously!), SilverLining (Skymaxx), XPUIPC, XPWideClient, XSquawkbox, Landing Speed, GroudTraffic (Aerosoft) Files attached. The IXEG makes extensive use of LUA but I removed FlyWithLua plugin and it made no difference. Thanks in advance for your help!! PI_xJoyMap.py xjoymap.ini

Hi Torbjørn, No success... XP still over-writes the saved buttons from XJOY The commands all still there but, for example, the button I select for "Landing Lights 1" reverts to just "Landing Lights" when I reload XP. Hmmmmm

Hi Torbjørn, Many thanks for this. I'll check the scripts and report back!

Tobi, Thanks for the above - it's extremely helpful. I've used your 737 template as a starting point and am able to operate all the lights correctly using my VRInsight FMCU. (I use keymapper to assign various key combinations to the unit. I use pushbuttons for the lights - rather than toggles - so altered the values to reflect this.) I have come across an issue which seems to be related to the order in which the python script is loaded, however: my X-Plane Keys.prf is being over-written every time I load XP. The PythonInterfaceLog shows that the datarefs being referenced via Xjoymap are not being loaded in time so I assume that XP attempts to replace the relevant key combinations. I can manually reselect these key combinations from within XP but this gets cumbersome when there are so many of them! Any suggestions here???

Thanks anyway - good luck with those exams!!

Er chaps... if we could keep to the topic of this particular thread???? Thanks!

Jet Time livery anybody please? Norwegian company flying the 737 for British Airways in the UK. You'd be hugely popular with the guys at British Airways Virtual if an appropriate livery could be painted. ;-)

Celis - I really hope so though these things take time. Thought the Goflight interfaced more readily with XP but obviously not. Still am pretty sure that this particular aircraft is going to attract a lot of simmers to XP and the clever coders should follow. ;-)
