Bear21 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Just want to give a heads up. I have Virpil stick, throttle, and pedals and have used a software version from 2020. It has worked fine, but I noticed since ED reworked controls that the dialog, in game especially, was laggy. When I recently bought the Varjo Aero and started using VR again, it was so laggy it was not useable. Turned out the culprit was old Virpil software; updated, and imported profiles, and now everything works fine. Just for info. 1 ____________________________ HP Envy 34 TM16000/TWCS/TFRP.

I am happy all works great now and all, but the question is how did you manage to import profiles from 2020 software into current software? I thought profiles created in the older software had different file extensions so they could not be imported in the new software. Am I missing something?

Double Dutch Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 hello, Last version of the software I have installed was v20220720_patch1.exe. Can I install the 20230328 version of the software without breaking things (or in DCS)? ----- Don't practise till you got it right.

imacken Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 There is a new version out. 20240124. Re 'not breaking things', I have never had an issue updating VPC software many times over the years, but there have been a couple of people who had their device IDs changed, and that does break the DCS binds. I use JoyPro to get round that issue if it ever occurs - for reasons other than software update in my case - as it can restore your previous IDs or change DCS binds to the new one with a single button press. 1 Intel i7 12700K · MSI Gaming X Trio RTX 4090 · ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-A Wi-Fi · MSI 32" MPG321UR QD · Samsung 970 500Gb M.2 NVMe · 2 x Samsung 850 Evo 1Tb · 2Tb HDD · 32Gb Corsair Vengance 3000MHz DDR4 · Windows 11 · Thrustmaster TPR Pedals · Tobii Eye Tracker 5 · Thrustmaster F/A-18 Hornet Grip · Virpil MongoosT-50CM3 Base · Virpil Throttle MT-50 CM3 · Virpil Alpha Prime Grip · Virpil Control Panel 2 · Thrustmaster F-16 MFDs · HTC Vive Pro 2 · Total Controls Multifunction Button Box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just download the 0092 version of JoyPro for the first time. But it looks like it has all of the source code in it? And it crashed when merged simple rudder pedal relations. And the log referred to a folder that is not on my system (D:\Dropbox\Programmierung\c#\JoyPro\JoystickProfiler\JoyPro\JoyPro\..) That download has over 387 files... Where can I download a package release for end users??

Cyborg71 Posted Wednesday at 03:01 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:01 PM If I missed this I apologise. Is it possible to swap virpil collectives without losing the control button binds? For this example I have a fully configured Ah64 collective, but occasionally may wish to swap back to the sharka50. Does the virpil/dcs software recall the binds - or are they gone once the hardware is swapped. With thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imacken Posted Wednesday at 04:55 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:55 PM Different hardware will require a different profile. You can swap them over once you have it saved initially.
