Thanks Rob I am still on win7 where you can turn off the power mgt in properties. Did they change win 10 where the only way to turn them off is by registery change? Bummer. Terry

Hi Steve You are welcome. GFIT has become the core of my system so it is worth every penny. Thanks Terry
-
Hello Steve I looked at the development list and it has several items. I sent you another donation to hopefully fund additional development. Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve Were you able to duplicate the off problem? Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve Testing still on going but I have confirmed one problem that I thought needed to be addressed before test can be completed. The sim (p3dv3.1) is not recognizing off switch positions. I used a simple toggle event and set both the on and off switch positions to this event. I did this with two different…
-
Hi Steve I only had time to test that the events were being written to the settings file. I was getting some strange results in the sim but it could be pilot error. I will test in detail tomorrow. Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve I just tried this and when I push a button on the throttle above 25 the UI does jump to that number. However when I tried to set the button to an event (I used parking brake) an then push another button the parking brake event stays selected. I then clicked on save settings and closed GFIT. I opened the…

Hi Steve Any luck with this issue? Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve The problem is in the GFIT UI. If you go into the settings file and manually add the actions to buttons 26 to 32 they work as they should. For some reason the UI is not writing to the settings file properly. Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve I think I wasn't clear on the issue. When I select the thrustmaster throttle and enable it all 32 buttons plus the pov show up in the GFIT window. However, if I click any button on the device of 25 or below the cursor jumps to the proper button in the drop down list. If I push any button on the device of…

Hello Steve As an update to my post above, I have found what caused the error. One of my control setups is a thrustmaster warthog stick and throttle pluse a thrustmaster mfd. I run a thrustmaster program called Target which will let you combine one or more of their devices into a virtual pc control device which is…
-
Hi Rob Thank you for a very clear response! LM developing on 10 is a real plus as I only use my computer for P3D. The USB issues concern me as I had a miserable time getting all my goflight units to consistently stay online. Is the moving around problem just with Saitek or also with goflight? I…

Hi Rob Thanks for info on Win 10. I am still holding off. Do you see any net benefit from moving to 10? Thanks Terry
-
Hello Steve Maybe Rob will have more luck but I got the same results as before. Thanks Terry
-
Also I have a green simconnect light but the other two are greyed out. Terry

Hello Steve Still not working but a difference. Before when I moused over the GFIT window the mouse cursor would change to a spinning circle. Now the mouse cursor does not change but the window is still locked up and non responsive. Probably a difference without meaning but thought you should know. Also I always install to…
-
Hello Steve Sad to say no change. Still locks up. Thanks Terry
-
Hello Steve +1 for Rob's last comment. I am back with my computer so I can again help test. Thanks Terry
-
Hello Steve and Rob You might want to send Rob those tries as he is much more knowledgeable than I am and might spot something I missed. I will be away from my computer until later today and from Thursday afternoon to Sunday est. Should I try uninstalling net 4.6? Thanks Terry
-
The gfconfig program wouldn't start with std Windows flight sim config has stopped working error. Went ahead and tried GFIT but same result. Thanks Terry
-
Hello Steve I installed 18.1 and ran with gf 2.25.0 and everything ok. Verified joysticks were not enabled. Uninstalled gf 2.25.0 and installed gf 2.26.1 and it works by itself but when I start git 18.1 it locks up the same as before where the mouse is a spinning circle and all parts are nonresponsive. Have to use taskmgr…
-
Hi Rob If you go back to gf 2.25 and GFIT 18 it still hangs? Going back to 2.25 cured mine. Reading your post reminded me that I had also installed net framework 4.6. I still think it is something in 2.26. Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve See my comment re the post on goflight forum. That's ok with me, I am going back to 2.25. Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve If it makes any difference, I just checked and with 2.26 installed p3dv3 running and the GFIT in a locked up state, the controls I have mapped via the goflight config tool still work. The radios work and the p8 buttons tied to pause all work? It is just GFIT that is locked? Thanks Terry
-
Upload didn't work. Sent via email. Also reading your posts on avsim, it looks like people were having problems starting as admin. I change the properties of all my sim related exe file to run as admin. I checked and both the 2.25 and 2.26 gfdevp3d files were set that way? Thanks Terry Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve Files attached. Also there is a post on the goflight forum from someone having issue with 2.26. Can't tell if same as mine. ThanksTerry
-
Hi Steve I do use gfdevp3d.exe. I manually added an entry in the exe.xml file to load it after I had installed p3d v3. If all 2.26 does is make that entry automatically, then I do not need it. Does 2.26 do anything else? Not sure if it matters but after installing 2.26 this morning I started it without anything else…
-
Hi Steve I uninstalled 2.26 and installed 2.25 with no other changes. Everything works as it used to. I think 2.26 is hosed somewhere somehow and if only change is for something I don't think I had a problem with, I think I will stick to 2.25. What was the behavior in 2.25 that caused them to go to 2.26? Thanks Terry
-
Hi Steve For what ever reason the gf config did not install. I installed again and now have the lockup again. I think it may have something to do with me having both 2.5 and 3 installed. I am going to try reverting back to 2.25 and see if I can get back to where I started. Thanks Terry
-
Ok it started without lockup but simconnect not connected. Log say can't find gfdev.dll. I can't find either. Where should it be? Thanks Terry
