DJJose 6 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I do not have FSUIPC for P3D v4. How can I use my GF-TQ6 to control the throttle? In FSX the only way the Airbus worked was using a LUA & FSUIPC. I'm hoping this is not the case with the CRJ Thanks. Jose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJJose 6 Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 I did and it doesn't work. The throttles go crazy when I assign an axis. This also happened in the Airbus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Hartmann [OLD] 1419 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 We do nothing special with the axis input. Can you explain what exaclty happens? Is it this one you use? http://www.aerosoft.com/de/xplane/hardware/throttles/407/gf-tq6-throttle-quadrant-grey?c=826 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took payware FSUIPC & a LUA script to get it to work. I'm not buying FSUIPC again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Hartmann [OLD] 1419 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Hmm. The Airbus throttle stuff was developed by somebody else, completely separate from the CRJ. Does the TQ6 come with any kind of software where you can see the raw data that it sends to FS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I move the throttles up they only go to about 40% N1. The reversers work fine as well but I cannot get N1 up to TOGA power. My flap lever is also erratic. If I just moved it the slightest bit it goes to full flaps. Again, it works just fine with every other plane in my hangar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Hartmann [OLD] 1419 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Well, I don't know why this happens. We had people with a lot of different throttles (even PFC) during testing but something like that was never reported. I only have a Saitek TQ. I'll check if I can somehow get a hold of a GF TQ6.

It took some research for me to get a LUA script downloaded for the airbus, so I have a feeling this could happen again with the CRJ. All I've done is set up some ezdok cams and check the lights. The lights do not illuminate the ground unless dynamic lighting is ticked. This results in a loss of performance. Bad FPS! Did I mention that I I've only just begun. I can't even get of the ground. But, I'm optimistic that everything will be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted August 2, 2017 Aerosoft Share Posted August 2, 2017 Well the lights are the standard P3d V4 light so they can't light up the ground until dynamic lights is activated, that's how they work. We might release a P3d V3 model for P3D v4 if demans for it is seriously high, but it seems rather silly to downgrade the product so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJJose 6 Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Even the landing lights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted August 2, 2017 Aerosoft Share Posted August 2, 2017 Yes. in fact those most of all as they actually have to light up a lot of scenery. That needs a lot of calculations from the GPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salsero_at 0 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Dynamic lights are a big problem for me. I have a 980TI and a 4K monitor, and even with MSAA 2x my FPS drop at airports from 30+ to 24 or 25 and it gets very stuttery. When looking around in the cockpit with lights on it is even worse. Flying at night with dynamic lights on with the CRJ is not a pleasant experience and not possible. Best regards Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted August 2, 2017 Aerosoft Share Posted August 2, 2017 Yes but with that resolution and that GPU you are really asking for the impossible and you will never be able to use any add-on that uses dynamic lights. I am sorry you did not realize that but we were very clear on our product page that we use the dynamic lights for the P3d V4 version. The P3d V3 version will simply run a lot better, just as any other add-on that is really created for v4. This topic is called 'Throttle' and is now about dynamic lights I will close it. feel free to open new topics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
