What can we put in '..\Saved Games\DCS\' folder??

[Snacko]

Is there any documentation on what exactly can be put into your "C:\Users\xxxxx\Saved Games\DCS\" folder??

 

I know that we must create a folder called Scripts and put the export.lua file there to export data. But I tried to add my monitor.lua files into "C:\Users\xxxxx\Saved Games\DCS\Config\MonitorSetup\", but that was ignored. I had to put them into the game's folder structure.

 

I am currently tweaking the ControlsIndicator.lua for the Ka50 and wonder if I can put that in the Saved Games folder. Is this just a trial and error each time I tweak some to see if it works, or does anybody know what works and what doesn't? :cry:

 

So, if we edit some files in the game, which ones can we put in our Users Saved Games folder to keep them safe from being overwritten, and what can we not put in there?? :doh:

Unfortunately they gave us the autoexec file where we could stow settings that wouldn't be affected by updates and repairs but never really told us what to do with it. This came up a little while ago but we got no mileage out of it.

I put my custom monitor config in the saved Games folder and it works fine with 1.2.7 and 1.2.7 openbeta.

I am using the same folder structure as in original place.

It does not exist in parallel in the original config structure and it does not overwrite an existing entry.
