#P3d differential brakes flickery software

I tried calibrating them again and still nothing happens. All other axes controls are working such as the yoke and rudder etc, as does the hand brake, as well as the button I assigned to use as a brake, but the toe brakes are inoperable in every sim aircraft model l tried. Then I also tried with another PMDG model 737 other that the Ryanair model I generally use. I just experimented with a Mooney Bravo (one of the P3DV4 models they offer) and with an imported 737 from FSX. Sorry to trouble you with this but I am out of ideas. That's why I wondered if there is a corrupt file somewhere (like a DLL file) that needs to be deleted or overwritten with something else. I have attached the INI file for you to look over - the specific controller is: 1=USBAXESV2.0 and the specific lines for the axes areĪnd yes, the controllers are disabled in P3D.Īs I said, I don't understand why everything was working perfectly up until a few days ago and since then, this particular function has not worked. I know something is not working as it should. One time they are all positive numbers another time I see the numbers prefixed with a '-' minus - this is what I refer to as an anomaly ( something that deviates from what is standard, normal, or expected) and this was not what I expected. It's just that the values in the IN and OUT value boxes show a different range of values each time I try to calibrate the toe brakes. Have you encountered this anomaly before? Is there a corrupt file somewhere that needs deleting and re-installing?Īh yes, the 'preview boxes' I referred to were the axes range values.

Since I can have brakes via the button programmed as an FS function for Brakes, the issue is not with PMDG I think, but with the way the hardware is trying to talk to the software (the toe brakes to FSUIPC). The 737 yoke assembly uses the same controller card as the 737 pedals (which also includes the toe brakes) No other axis appears affected other than the differential left and right brakes. Does this help you to determine the possible cause? I suspect the is the visible evidence of what the problem might be - but I'm not smart enough to know what that problem is. I could do it twice and get a different value each time. I went into FSUIPC to try and calibrate them again, and I notice something I had not seen before: where before, the preview box that shows the values, had a whole number in one and a -number in the other, the calibration seems confused as to whether there is a -values of not. If I apply them, the effect is so slight as to be negligible. The differential brakes still have a problem and don't work as they did before. I now have fully function brakes with the button I added to activate FS Brakes when pressed. I did and then went back into the sim to see what difference it made - and it did, of course. Second, I did discover one problem: that when I performed a 'repair' from both P3Dv4 and PMDG, I forgot to put in the EnableDataBroadcast=1 in the 737NGX_Options.ini file. I had simply forgotten about it as I never used it. First, I do have a default aircraft - it is one of the standard ones in P3D that I never use, but remember people saying that unless you have it, P3D has a habit of crashing to the desktop. I have a suspicion that it is something very simple that my thick brain is overlooking, so could you put me out of my misery, please? I also checked to see if there was a fault in the PMDG failure settings, but that it clear. It there any reason you can think of why the toe brakes should have stopped working in the sim? I push the toe brakes and absolutely nothing happens. The rudder works, but not the toe brakes. I've checked everything, and even ran P3Dv4 repair, and PMDG repair from the installation packages, but although FSUIPC shows that the physical Opencockpits pedals are properly connected and functioning, the toe brakes on the pedals do not seem to be connecting to the sim. I first checked that the wiring was all right (it is) and I performed a new calibration thinking that would solve the problem, but it hasn't The calibration is correct but for some reason the toe brakes are inoperable in the sim. everything has been working fine up to a few days ago when I discovered the toe brakes were no longer working.

My sim has Opencockpits 737 rudder pedals. I have the latest version of FSUIPC installed (5.15).
