Update game list kills FSX support
Posted: Fri Feb 06, 2009 4:47 pm
I posted this in another thread, but didn't get any response.
I did a bunch of experimenting, and here is what happens. I installed off the CD with Build 29 (I think) and all worked well. I later updated to Build 36 from the NP website, and all worked great. Then I got DCS: Black Shark and needed to update the game list. TrackIR works great with BS, but stopped working with FSX. So I uninstalled, re-downloaded Build 36, and tried it: Works great with FSX. Updated game list so it would work with BS, FSX stops working, but BS works.
Why would the game update kill FSX, and what can I do to make it work with BOTH games?
Details:
FSX/Accelleration SP1/2
Vista 32
TrackIR4 build 36
Have uninstalled/reinstalled as per some SIMILAR threads, did not help. Either works with FSX, or BS, not both.
