I'm not quite sure I understand what is happening. Do the settings persist in the AMS but not work in P3D?

It is does not always persist in AMS. It is like Richard Portier's post on 8 May 17
-Sometimes a command is assigned at two events at the same time. If I correct/erase one, the other is affected
. Also, I've experienced where the commands appear properly in AMS when saved but when in P3D have presented in the cockpit in a way described by Richard. For example,

TM WARTHOG
- Drag Chute - Throttle Button 25 "Save"
- Master Caution Reset - Throttle Button 20 then "Save" and "Save Default"
- Immediately go back to Drag chute - It is now Throttle Button 20

Make sense? Neal

Go to your MVAMS location(right click and select go to file location)\Configurations\F4E and delete all files that GUID hex numbers for their names.

Then put this in your MVAMS location\Modules folder, right click on it, select properties and if there is an unblock button, click it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nask3p7uh6p41nk/F4E.dll?dl=0

Then try assigning commands again.

Also, make sure in your P3D control settings that you are using DirectInput not RawInput.

JB,
Reference your instructions above ... Your solution works! The only change to your instructions would be: FIRST, go to P3D and change the control settings from Rawinput to Directinput. THEN make your settings in MVAMS. Otherwise, the change in P3D will disrupt the MVAMS setting assignments made previously.

Thanks! Neal

Not quite. The AMS assignments are in a totally separate file that P3D doesn't touch at all.
