Double check that you are doing the following: 1.) Ensure that you delete "function layout()" at the very top of the .lua file and then delete "end" at the very bottom of the .lua and make sure to SAVE the changes to the file. The software will load the default joystick settings every time if you do not do this!! 2.) Make sure that you named the file EXACTLY how I said to name it (Logitech Extreme 3D Pro USB with a ".lua" extension). Just copy and paste what I wrote to ensure you are using the correct case for the letters and spacing between the words. 3.) Make sure to paste the "Logitech Extreme 3D Pro USB.lua" file in the "joystick" folder using the EXACT file path I suggested: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\DCSWorld\Mods\aircraf ts\A-10C\Input\A-10C 4.) Open the joystick folder to verify that you had in fact saved the "Logitech Extreme 3D Pro USB.lua" file in the joystick folder before closing everything. The only other thing that I think could "maybe" (I am not sure if this matters) cause problems if you had already made manual changes to the joystick settings and saved it which creates a "diff.lua" file for that joystick which can be found by using this file path which looks something like this: users\YOUR username\saved games\DCS\Config\Input\A-10C\joystick\ If you have a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro diff.lua file in the above path's joystick folder, then delete that file and then try running the game and checking to see if that works. Again, I have no idea if this will cause problems or not, but it will not hurt to delete the diff.lua file for that joystick. Also, this will ONLY affect the A-10C SIM joystick settings. Ensure that you are selecting "A-10C Sim" from the "Layer" drop down menu when checking to see if the joystick settings are applied. The game defaults to the non-sim joystick controls which can mislead you into thinking that the controls are not correctly being loaded. Make sure that you are actually running the game in simulation mode or it will use the game mode joystick configuration when playing. Anyway, I will be checking back later to see if you were able to get it working. Good Luck! :)

Here is how I was able to get the OP's .lua file to load/work correctly as of today's date (05/25/2014): 1.) Save OP's (OP = Original Poster) .lua file to your Desktop (or anywhere that you will be able to find it) by either right clicking and choosing "Save as" or clicking on the OP's link, "selecting all" (ctrl+A), and then copying the contents to a new text document (change .txt extension to .lua and save). 2.) Change the file name to (DO NOT INCLUDE QUOTES): "Logitech Extreme 3D Pro USB.lua" <-- COPY AND PASTE TO PREVENT ERRORS!!! 3.) Open the re-named file with notepad and delete "function layout()" at the very top and then delete "end" at the very bottom. Save the changes to the file. 4.) Then go to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\DCSWorld\Mods\aircrafts\A-10C\Input\A-10C ***__Ensure you are using the correct File path!!___*** 5.) Copy and Paste the "Logitech Extreme 3D Pro USB.lua" file you had saved to your desktop into the "joystick" folder. 6.) Start the game and go to "Options" and then choose the the "Controls" tab. 7.) Choose "A-10C Sim" from the "Layer" drop down menu. 8.) Verify that ALL the controls from the .lua file are correctly loaded and displayed in the "Logitech Extreme 3D Pro" column (which they should be if you followed the above steps correctly). If the majority of the commands are highlighted in red, then go to the next step. If the commands are NOT highlighted, then you should be good to go. 9.) If any of them are highlighted in red, then that means you need to add joystick buttons 7-12 as modifiers. You will do this on the same screen by choosing "MODIFIERS" in the bottom left corner. 10.) Choose "ADD MODIFIER" in the "MODIFIERS PANEL". 11.) Select the Logitech joystick in the "Device Name" drop down menu of the "ADD MODIFIER" window. 12.) Press the "7" button on the joystick. Now you should see "JOY_BTN7" in both the "Select modifier button" and "Modifier button name" in the "ADD MODIFIER" window. 13.) Choose "OK" and then repeat steps 9 through 11 until all six of the joystick buttons (buttons 7-12 on the joystick) are added to the modifiers list. The finished modifier list should look something like this (including the default modifiers): JOY_BTN10 JOY_BTN11 JOY_BTN12 JOY_BTN7 JOY_BTN8 JOY_BTN9 LAlt LCtrl LShift LWin RAlt RCtrl RShift RWin 14.) After you are sure you have ALL the modifiers added, then click "OK" in the "MODIFIERS PANEL" and the red highlight should disappear in the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro column. The joystick "should" now work the way the original poster intended (All the commands I have tried worked so far). If anyone has a more "elegant" solution to the problem, then by all means please share for future reference. If not, then hopefully my method works correctly for the rest of you! :)

I will be posting a walk through shortly. I'm a newbie too, but I figured out how to get the OP's profile to work properly with the latest patch.
