I've got my Mobi flight software to recognize that FSUIPC 7 is running and everything to be doing fine except that the keypress I assigned does not work in-game. I tried the button outside of the game and it worked, I typed in the search bar using my button and it worked. Why does this not work in-game? How can I fix it? Do I need to wait for an update? Thanks in advance!!!

Hi
Thanks for reporting!

We still know this situation. Whatever Sebastian not know the reason..... It looks like Key Commands can NOT send to FS2020 at the moment.
Please remember..... FS2020, FSUIPC7 and also Mobiflight 7.9.0.x is still BETA ( Yes i say FS2020 is still Beta..... Cause this Sim got already 1 Million Bugs).

Apollogy for your trouble...... But in case a little "freeware" System like Mobiflight get no developer access to FS2020 in the last months it was not possible to offert a perfect Software at beginning. It will take some time until all is working fine !

@ DocMoebius. Please set this Problem to MAJOR if possible.

Good Luck !

KeyPress is currently not working. I haven't figured out a solution for it yet. KeyPress are not sent through FSUIPC, but they use the native Windows API. It might be a problem with the Security Model of Applications that are running through the Windows Marketplace... that's the only explanation i have right now.

I have created an issue in our tracker and you can keep track of any progress there:

Sorry for the inconvenience. Maybe you can try to go through vJoy instead or simply use EventIDs or FSUIPC Offsets.

Have a great day!
Sebastian
