The iGMap (FSWidgets) also works for me.

It would be nice to get as original a checklist as possible (so far I haven't found one on the internet) to include such points as switching the various exterior lights on and off.

Hallo kann mir jemand was genauer sagen wo ich das am besten belege.
Wenn Du die Controller Deiner Wahl angeschlossen hast, lassen sich alle Einstellungen für die Controller hier vornehmen:
- „Controls“/„Steuerung“ (linke Spalte erste Schaltfläche)
-
brief interim information:
In the meantime I have succeeded in calibrating with try and error in the gc-map.mfc.😀
-
Since I fly a lot of helicopters, I have now bought the "PUMA X" controller from Pro Flight Trainer LLC
. However, at the moment I still have difficulties calibrating and assigning it on my Mac
. A test calibration under Windows showed that technically the controller is OK because it can be calibrated under Windows 11.
That is the current situation:
- the controller is recognised as "PFT-PUMA"
- X and Y (cyclic) only show deflections of less than 10 % each around the centre point
- Z (collective) shows deflections of 50 to 70 % from the lower end point
- Ry and Rz (throttle) show deflections from the lower endpoint up to 95 and 100 %, but cannot be assigned then
- Rx (rudder) shows deflections from -40 to +30 % around the centre point
- Dial (right wheel brake) shows deflections from -10 % to the centre point, starting from the centre point
- Slider 0 (left wheel brake) shows deflections from 40 to 50 %, is comparable to Dual, but starts from 0 % (on the left side)
Above this, these buttons are not displayed:
-- 25 (=Zone2 from button 5)
-- 26 (=Zone2 of button 6)
-- 27/28/29/30/31
I have already reset the gc-map.mcf as well as the controllers and assignments - unfortunately without success so far. I also got nowhere when reading out and trying to adjust the gc-map.mcf with a text editor.
I am happy if there is a solution.

So, I was able to solve the problem:
After the update, the start is blocked for security reasons. In the section "System Settings / Privacy & Security", the FS versions can then be unlocked and run again.
-
I have launched all versions downloaded via STEAM both from the STEAM app and without STEAM directly from my Mac -- unfortunately the error always occurs.
-
Yesterday I installed the operating system macOS Ventura (= version 13.0) on my MacBookPro (chip: Apple M1 Mac).
While FS2 obtained from the AppStore starts without problems, the versions FS2beta, FS4 and FS4beta obtained via STEAM start with this Message:
I have already uninstalled FS4/FS4beta and re-uploaded -- without change.
-
-
I also like to use FS(1) from time to time because it has both a motor glider and winch launch 😁 - both of which I miss in the newer versions.🥺
-
The current beta version also has the masts in the final approach of EKAH 10R and 28L.

Thank you Thomas for this overview.

I don't know if it helps that I don't have the problem on my Mac. (STEAM beta 4.00.03.05)

I have a problem with the Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition on FS4 on my Mac when I assign THROTTLE and THRUST REVERSE in both "Controls/General/Airplane" and "Controls/Multi engine" at the same time, which in my experience is necessary:
- for flying with single engine airplanes I need the assignment of THROTTLE and THRUST REVERSE in "Controls/General/Airplane"
- for flying multi-engine airplanes I need the assignment of THROTTLE and THRUST REVERSE in "Controls/Multi engine"
I explain the problem using the Q400 as an example. For the other multi-engine aircraft P38, Baron58, KingAir as well as F15E, F/A18C, LJ45, CRJ900LR, B737-500, B777-300ER, B787-10, B7474-400, A320 and A380 it is comparable (for each aircraft I have a detailed table).
The following table shows how THROTTLE 2 behaves in FS4 in the five possible positions, depending on which position THROTTLE 1 is in. I know that there are also cases in there which are not used so rather, but THROTTLE 2 must be generally independent of THROTTLE 1.
Problems only occur, if THROTTLE 1
-- firstly is assigned in "Controls/General/Airplane" as throttle as well as in "Controls/Multi engine" as throttle 1 is
and
-- secondly, is in the Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition in the positions "[3] -- FLIGHT IDLE", "[4]" or "[5] -- RATING".

Bei mir gibts den Airport nicht
In addition to the saved designed airfields (see button "Location"), FS4 also has a simulator-internal database of many ICAO airfields worldwide, which can also be flown to as destinations using the navigation function (see button "Navigation") - only they cannot be used as starting points.
I collect some of these airfields for myself by creating an ICAO folder in my user folder for each of these airfields, each with an ICAO.tsc and ICAO.wad file (see also Activate the ICAO airfields already stored in the FS4 database).
An important note on this:
I know that IPACS does not like this, at least officially. I think this is primarily because it cannot be ruled out that this could lead to disruptions. So far, I have not experienced any disruptions and if I did, I would always remove the folders I created in my user area.

Ich weiß, dass F18, F15 und MB399 keinen Gegenschub haben und statt dessen beim Zurückziehen in den untersten Quadranten auf FUELL OFF gehen.
Mit meinem Thrustmaster Airbus Quadrant kann ich über die Belegung ENG dies per Schalter simulieren. Dennoch würde ich es lieber wie im Original über die Schubhebel machen, zumal der Unterste Quadrant über eine Sperrklinke gesichert ist.
Ähnliches gilt auch noch für andere Flugzeuge, meine Flugzeug-spezigische Tabelle ist fast fertig, dann stelle ich sie im Forum ein.
