DCS 1.2.7.23803 Release Update 1 "Target unlock" gone for Mig-29 & SU-27/33

[BrzI]

Cannot unlock target

 

Tried both my assigned controller key and backspace. Nothing works. All my other assignments work OK.

 

Any suggestions folks ?

[uboats]

delete the input/keyboard and joystick files and re assign

 

or modify the lua files and the unlock target name has been changed to return to search

I have a clean 1.2.7. installation with 1 update, and "return to search" doesn't work for Russian planes, and yes I tried deleting input/keyboard.lua file. Please fix this.

 

Edit:

But I am now checked how that keyboard.lua file looks on my side, here it is:

{combos = {{key = "Back"}}, name = "Return To Search", category = "Sensors"},

Since I had saved the old file I changed this line like this:

 

{combos = {{key = "Back"}, }, down = iCommandRefusalTWS, name = "Return To Search", category = "Sensors"},

But now in the lists, I have two commands (see picture). The second can't be edited or deleted. However, in the simulation command "Back" now works.

 

Remark: The same incomplete command is also for Su-25 plane.

reinstalling the game wont help, instead you need to delete the keyboard.lua file from input/keyboard folder for the F-15C in Saved Games folder (not DCS installation)

[kobac]

Maybe we didn't understand very well, but neither my english isn't the best.

I never said I reinstalled DCS, but I said that I had a clean install,

Which means that I uninstalled and deactivated all DCS modules, and I've deleted everything from Saved Games folder (because of hardware upgrades). When a large update (to say from 1.2.6. to 1.2.7) I always uninstall and delete everything, but do not deactivate modules.

 

The problem is - developers aren't well-made ​​coding of this command. You need to check too. Because for "Back" command missing this part:

down = iCommandRefusalTWS,

Hi,

 

I fixed the F-15C changing this :

 

{combos = {{key = "Back"}}, down = iCommandRefusalTWS, name = "Target Unlock", category = "Sensors"}

 

For this:

 

{combos = {{key = 'Back'}}, down = iCommandRefusalTWS, name = 'Unlock TWS Target', category = 'Sensors'},

 

 

All of these in ....Saved Games\DCS\InputLayoutsTxt\ directory

 

But it does not work for the Su-27. Ideas?

[kobac]

The procedure is the same as for the F-15. Find Keyboard.lua (C:\Users\user\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\su-27\keyboard.lua) and change (line 206) key "Back" to->

 

{combos = {{key = "Back"}, }, down = iCommandRefusalTWS, name = "Return To Search", category = "Sensors"},

without derailing the thread, what is the new key combo for master battery on for all FC3 crafts?

[kobac]

This applies only to Su-25/25T, Other planes have already turned on the main power supply.

 

{combos = {{key = "L", reformers = {"RShift"}}}, down = iCommandPowerOnOff, name = "Electric Power Switch", category = "Systems"},

This is still a bug. I can`t assign any joystick inputs to "return to search" as the replacement for "unlock" even after deleting the input folder. The only thing that works is Frosties solution ("There I fix it solution")
