Nealius Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Latest 1.5.3 OB update as of March 21. I used to have problems with editing Su-25A controls and now it's happening with the M2k. Add controls, press OK, black screen. The game doesn't necessarily crash and is listed as "running" in the task manager, but it just sits there with a black screen. I have to kill the program via task manager and, of course, my controller changes don't save. It happens 100% of the time. Log attached.
Tornado Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 Same problem I have when adjusting the controls of the M-2000C and press on ok the screen turns black. Music is still playing but as Nealius wrote you the to kill DCS when the taskmanager. Start over again. I tried to adjust the controls for the mirage 3 times now, but every time same story. Black screen and now way to get back in the menu. It happens indeed after the update 1.5.3. But then I was able to do something in push the OK button after every change I did. But when I edited more controlls in one run the screen starts to turn black. After todays update in 1.5.3 (April 22) I tried to adjust only one button for my Warthog and pressed on ok and the black screen turns in.
Neo47 Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) Try to set your controls in a mission. Had the same probs but in a mission it works... May it helps...

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted April 23, 2016 ED Team Posted April 23, 2016 try a fresh saved games dcs folder, rename the ones you have to keep them as backups, restart dcs and allow them to create new ones, redo your settings and try the controls again.

mvsgas Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 The problem is still there for me. Renaming the mission editor file, did work initially, but after flying online and going to the option page, changing controls and pressing ok will cause a black screen. So far changing the SU-25T or the Mirage. This does not happen if I change controls in single player, while in the cockpit. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2754804#post2754804 To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

stublu Posted August 4, 2016 Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) So this isn't fixed I take it? Just had the same issue. Only works if you set them in a mission. Edited August 4, 2016 by stublu
PabstBleuRibbon Posted December 2, 2017 Posted December 2, 2017 This is still happening. Latest Openbeta release. Go into controls in the menu, hit "ok" = instant black screen.
Nealius Posted December 8, 2017 Author Posted December 8, 2017 Easiest workaround is to jump into a jet, hit ESC, then adjust controls from there.
