Joystick Profiler Relations Are Unable to Recognise Virpil Control Panels 1, 2 and SHARKA 50 about joystickprofiler HOT 15 CLOSED

I have CP1 and CP2 no problems. If you cannot see them in joy.cpl there is a problem with you VPC configuration.
After you make changes you must always save your profile, calibrate if needed and click the save VPC device to write it to the device

another thing do not slave them to another VPC device unless you know what you are doing if you do then you will not see the device that is slaved
set it up like this

If you open the windows Joy.cpl control panel do you see your devices listed there?

as a last fallback you can also manually assign and create sticks by joystick as you can see here https://youtu.be/4zMcYzhgv7E?t=127 or use the visual assigning mode.

Joypro uses a library called SlimDX for getting all joystick inputs. It is basically a light weight DirectX 11 interface to query what DirectInput devices are there. If they are not listed DirectX does not see them. However i have heard from other VPC customers that you can tail the control panels to the throttle maybe you have done that?

Also for more reactive and fast trouble shooting we can go into discord and discuss it there if you need a solution asap

Also inside DCS are your VPC panels listed as their own devices?
If they are functioning internally as Keyboards then they won't work as Joypro currently does not support Keyboards and only DirectInput devices such as technically any gamepad or other joystick esc device, which i would believe is the case for the VPC panels, but i only have 2 VPC sticks and throttle and they seem to work without a problem. Also on our discord is one user who also uses the VPC control panels and he seems to got it working.

Thank you for your quick response! Much appreciated!

First question is how do I get onto your discord please? Is there a URL link that you could provide that will direct me straight there?

If I open the device window in JoyPro.cpl control panel (which I presume is the home screen) then all I see are the following:-

Unassigned
VPC Joystick
VPC Throttle
VPC Pedals.

I notice that none of the three VPC Control panels I have configured in VPC are listed in DCS, which leads me to think that is the root cause of the problem I'm facing, as the other three VPC devices I also have (Joystick, throttle and rudder pedals) are listed directly in DCS. Therefore I need a solution to get DCS to recognise my three VPC control panels in addition to the other three VPC devices it already has identified. Would creating logical devices in VJoy be a solution? I don't want to spend lots of time with VJoy if that does not work easily with JoyPro.
My version of my VPC joystick and throttle units does not allow me to tail/link a single control panel to either the throttle or joystick, as otherwise I would have done that. Therefore they are all installed in standalone mode.

I also noticed that when I have loaded the Holdi.rl template and then trying to ADD a new Relation to it, nothing happens, and all the other buttons then stop working, although you can still scroll up and down through the list of existing relations.

Any help you can give me to quickly get me restarted would be extremely appreciated.
Many thanks!

https://discord.gg/yK4gQA9xgk is the discord

No i mean with joy.cpl this thing

One person on the discord came back having also the control panels and they said they have no issues.

I would highly advise talking with someone of the 2 people on our discord how they configured their control panels

from joystickprofiler.

No VJoy device under Game Controller on my systemas I had already uninstalled VJoy before installing JoyPro. All I have listed under Game Controller on my PC are my Joystick, Throttle and Rudder Pedals; nothing more.

Thanks for the link to discord site.

Do you have any further information why I cannot add a new Relation if I'm already using your Relation Template 'Holdi.rl'?

Many thanks!

You should be able to update without problem. The only issues you might have is when you have quaggles commands which are not in my default DCS DBs, then you need to refresh the DCS DB.
