The latest version of FSUIPC7, version 7.5.5, has now been released.
This version contains the following major changes – please see the included documentation (changes.txt and the FSUIPC7 History document) for a more detailed and complete list:
- allow repeated LuaValue calls with the same parameter
- disable button actions until ready, i.e. SimConnect fully initialised and all threads started (when ready-to-fly)
- corrected bug that confused text in multiple Wnd windows
- added message to main window to show current profile in use
- allow successive (masked) axis events with the same parameter to be sent.
- ensure WideServer is stopped before FSUIPC exits (to allow shutdown commands to be sent to WideClients)
- Correction to assignments on virtual buttons to Input Events that would result in a
failure and an ‘**** Cannot execute empty Input Event‘ message even though the Input Event is known. - Some new (Key) events/controls added for both MSFS2020 and MSFS2024.
- Various new (key) events/controls added for MSFS2024 (only), mainly for control of balloons and gliders
- menu items to list lvars and hvars moved to Log menu (from Add-ons->WASM menu)
- minor updates to logging Input Events, which are now also logged to the FSUIPC7.log file
- added two new lua functipns ipc.getInstallationFolder() and ipc.getLuaPath()
- added simvar INTERACTIVE POINT GOAL to offset 0x341B as a bitwise byte for both reading and writing
- added simvar INTERACTIVE POINT OPEN to offset 0x3424 as a bitwise byte for both reading and writing
- allow reverse thrust controls for separate engines 1/2/3/4
For any issues, please use the provided support forums.

N.B. Version 7.5.5 was initially released on the 8th November 2025. However, this release still had a had a couple of references to the old Support forums and download site. I corrected these and re-released on the 9th with the same version number (as these changes were very minor). If you installed v7.5.5 with a build date of the 8th November, you should update to the 9th build-date release. This is not strictly necessary, but the auto-download and install feature may not work when the next version of FSUIPC7 is released if using the initial version released.
