BIAS FX 2 MIDI control

Okay, I have a problem with the midi. When I use a preset with wah and actually move the expression pedal, the software will open a box saying Modifications will be lost without saving... . That basically makes it impossible to switch this kind of preset live. I didn't see anywhere in the options something allowing me to disable this dialog box so that's really annoying :/

@vdcuber if you had bothered to read the latest posts this BUG is fully discovered and will be addressed in a future build - cheers

@tafkad Oh I'm sorry I missed it when I read the previous messages. Thanks for the reply thought :)

So, until I've fully figured out scripting in Gig Performer, I'm doing the next best thing... I'm running "Midifire" on my iPad, and running my MIDI controller through it before going to my PC.
The "Streambyter" scripts in Midifire have worked incredibly for the iOS version... So i just piggybacked that functionality over to my PC.
Added bonus... I can use my IK Multimedia BlueBoard to control my PC version wirelessly!
Super simple (He said sarcastically)... All you need is an iOS device (iPad / iPhone)... An iOS MIDI interface with MIDI in & out... An additional $24 app... About an hour of time programming everything (Go to the Audeonic website... They have a pre-setup script that you can download specifically for "Auto-engage wah" in Bias FX!) All so I can make my PC version's MIDI function the way it should have in the first place.
Granted, it will be easier once I master Gig Performer's scripting language (or someone else does what Audeonic did, and create a downloadable template.). But for now, I'll work with what I have.
Third option of course is: PG can realize the error of their ways... Upgrade their MIDI implementation... Rule from on high with a vastly superior software... And save us all from having to do these ridiculous workarounds!

@guitarkite I've come to the conclusion there is not enough "trimmed down precise" info in one place that is able to help anyone with any set up accomplish these tasks haha I laugh because this is the web after all and the info is out there somewhere
Steep learning curves always get in my way but I'm now of the opinion that the biggest issues ahead are "Stability foremost and Performance that is way less CPU hungry"
With stable software we can explore all the possibilities without so much headache of crashing or just failure.
Anyway for my uses in guitar Bias is achieving all I need and will improve no doubt. I have full midi control of this new version of BFX2 in standalone mode or live in any DAW I choose so far - which is great for writing and recording as well as performance. I can't see any extra anything needed than my mac a soundcard a midi controller Bias and Reaper as the most affordable route to easy midi controlled virtual guitar amp and rack systems with sequencing/recording (throw in some drum and synth software and good to go)
If you can fully control it midi standalone the daw is all that's left and not impossible
The future gets brighter in some areas at least so time to make use of it - cheers

Thats why I startted writing all my stuff down, so at least I;d know where to find it. Google has obfuscated soooooooooooo many search results now as well, the info is likely out there, but google will now hide it
