FSXControls 4.0 is a set of programs for FSX. (1) GUI multifunction application comprising: comprehensive input controller setup; your hangar aircraft manager. (2) Charts and maps viewer gauge with airport and navaids info. (3) GhostMouse and FlexyCamera driver module for FSX. By Eugene Motorny.

Kinda strange to me. I read the install manual and installed the two files in appropriate gauge and module folders and ran FSX and noticed that there is
a module drop down to work with camera's and views. I played with it a little and really didn't get much of a thrill out of it. So I deleted it.
I guess there was more to setting it up to get the desired results but I wasn't able to obtain the results from the enclose pictures of what it can
do that was zipped with the rest of the files. O well...... thanks anyhow..

No problem, I don't use utilities like this as a rule, just thought someone else might find it useful.:salute:

Yes that for me seems the handiest bit. Didn't quite understand the Ghost mouse thing, but I tried without actually doing any reading, that's next on the list. :applause:
 
A few more details on this program

I went to the home site and learned a little more about this program:

[h=4]Whom this software is for?[/h]
  • FSXControls.exe is for owners of advanced controller system with a lot of programmable buttons (home cockpits, joystick sets, CHProducts' MFC panel etc).
  • ChartViewer.dll is for virtual pilots who prefer to fly with paper charts but not with artificial moving map. Real world pilots do not have moving map except GNS, but extensively use paper charts.
  • EQModule.dll (GhostMouse driver) is for owners of advanced payware addon aircrafts. Unfortunately addon aircrafts mostly lack of feature that maps keyboard or joystick input to the advanced control of the aircrafts.

Above is what I cut and pasted from the home site. Interesting concepts for those that could benefit from it all. :engel016:
