(If you don't have a Loupedeck Live this is useless to you)
To use: Unzip the file, in Loupedeck Configration software go to Settings (cog wheel), then under Device Settings choose Profile and import the file. It should automatically map to FlightSimulator.exe but you may have to adjust based on your setup (this was for Steam).
Check the comments for some install troubleshooting help.

Issues I've encountered:
- A couple times during the first trial run the encoder dials stopped responding and then my mouse cursor dissappeared. Seems to have stopped in the version I have uploaded here.
- The encoder dials need 2-3 clciks to have any effect most of the time. Not sure if I can adjust the sensitivity or use a modifier maybe. I'm open to suggestions :)

I am thinking of buying a Loupedeck CT, will this profile work on it please?

Hello,
I hesitate to buy the loopedeck or the Stream Deck.
I have seen that there are a number of MODs that seem to work well for the Stream Deck.
But I love the idea of being able to have 6 knobs on my MSFS 2020 with the loopedeck.
Do you know if it is possible to operate the keys and the knobs for the Garmin G1000 / 3000?
Thank you for your help !
I use my Loupedeck daily for Photoshop, Illustrator and Premiere Pro. Using it for MSFS is just a little bonus....
And to be 100% honest: this profile doesn't work that well in-game.
As you can see in the description and comments: Buttons take 2-3 presses for a result most of the time, same with the turn of the knobs. And there is still an occasional bug that causes your mouse cursor to disappear until you end the flight :(
It does not control the knobs of the G1000 or G3000, because there aren't currently any keybindings for those actions in MSFS.
I don't have a StreamDeck, can't help ya there.
Even on the MSFS forum there doesn't seem to be any future developments to make the Loupedeck work properly.
In the meantime, I found an alternative option with the Class Echo by ShakePrint.

Do any of you find that you have to push the touchscreen buttons more than once to get them to work? It seems like sometimes the commands are not being picked up by the sim. I don't seem to have this issue in any of the other programs that I use the Loupedeck for.
This is of course not the fault of the programmer of this package and I really do appreciate his efforts.

@shichiro: Just create a new text file on your desktop and rename it to flightsimulator.exe (you'll have to change the .txt type of the file to .exe). Once you do this, it should work just fine

Hi,
I have the CD version, I went to google because I still can not select or copy the .exe
I have tested several solutions but without success.
An idea?

Great Idea to use this tool!
I had troubles to assign the profile to the flightsimulator.exe application. I had bought the MSFS via Microsoft store and i could not assign the flightsimulator.exe. I created a dummy flightsimulator.exe on the desktop and assigned this file. Now it works.
