Horrgakx Posted March 15, 2022 at 12:28 PM Posted March 15, 2022 at 12:28 PM (edited) Hi all - I'm a new user and I'm struggling to set vPilot up with PTT if anyone can help please? I have entered my details to the Network section and logged in no problem, I've even sat in the sim (I'm on FS2020) and listened to some traffic. But when I try to add a PTT key (clicking "Set a Different PTT Key or Button") vPilot hangs and I get the hour-glass cursor. If I try to press cancel I'm given the standard Windows options to terminat the application. The executable I installed it from is vPilot-Setup-3.2.1.exe I have tried running vPilot as Administrator I'm on MS Flight Sim 2020 installed through Steam, all updates and patches are completed I'm on Win11, all up to date with Windows Updates and Video Drivers etc PC spec is; Nvidia RTX2080 8Gb / Intel i7 9700 / Gigabyte ATX Z390 AORUS PRO / 32Gb Kingston HyperX Predator 3000Mhz I note that the Q&A/FAQ has an entry saying;"Q: I can't select a PTT on my keyboard. What's up with that?" "A: If you use UAC and use a keyboard PTT, DO NOT install vPilot as an administrator, but once installed, if you run FSX/P3D/MSFS as an administrator, run vPilot as an administrator. Joystick PTT works fine with or without running as an administrator." However 1) I don't know what a UAC is, and 2) I don't recall having the option to install vPilot as an administrator. But I don't think this also covers the application crashing... So - Can anyone help me please?

Ross Carlson Posted March 15, 2022 at 03:49 PM Posted March 15, 2022 at 03:49 PM My best guess is that vPilot is somehow being prevented from reading the buttons on one of your devices. I would try disconnecting any USB controllers one by one and see if you can identify which one it is.

Horrgakx Posted March 15, 2022 at 04:20 PM Author Posted March 15, 2022 at 04:20 PM Thanks for reply. I only have the one joystick (Cyborg X I think) and I unplugged it but it made no difference. As soon as I hit the button to bind the key vPilot hangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carlson Posted March 15, 2022 at 06:16 PM Posted March 15, 2022 at 06:16 PM Maybe some other software is interfering ... don't know. Could even be Windows 11 itself.
