OK I'm a long time FSX guy who is trying to make P3D, latest version, work with my SAITEK equipment. The rudders, yoke, throttle quadrant etc all work fine. But I can't get the muti-panel to do anything. With FSX my registered FSUIPC always worked fine. But I can't get it to talk with P3D.
From this forum I was told SPAD was a good communication device to use. So I downloaded the freeware version. Now when I try to integrate it with P3D it halts saying there isn't permission to make a change. I am the administrator on this computer and opted to run SPAD as "Run As Administrator" after the first install failure. Sadly everything got exactly as far as it had before and stopped.
When I first downloaded the SPAD all the lights on my multi-panel lit up for a moment then went out. So it definitely can talk to the panel. Since then other than the glow to tell me the usb is still plugged in I haven't had any response. Just to verify there wasn't another issue I fired up FSX and it worked perfectly with the multi-panel as always. But P3D acts as though it's not there.
IDEAS?? SUGGESTIONS?
