Uriah_ Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 I was looking for a 'how to' for the game but I am not finding it. Anyway, I set up all my keys and such as I like them when I was messing with the game while flying the training P-51. I saved the changes. I think this is called a profile. I decided to lay my money down and downloaded the p-51d. I then found that it was using a default profile. I thought I found the way to load the profile I saved for the trainer but nothing I do seems to load that profile for the fighter. Any hints?
Uriah_ Posted August 10, 2014 Author Posted August 10, 2014 How to copy profile from one plane to another like the TF-51D to the P-51D Given that you decided to try DCS out and changed many of the keyboard and joystick commands from the default to something you like better. Then you decide to go ahead and buy the P-51D. You discover all your changes don’t exist for the P-51D. You even try to load the profile (that is what it is called) that you had saved for the TF-51D but find that no matter what you do you never really get those commands as you set them. SOLUTION: The values are stored here: C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input And you will see several subfolders like Default P-51D TF-51D And in each of those folders you will see these subfolders Joystick Keyboard Mouse Tracker And say in Joystick you will have a file for each joystick controller you have. I have one for CH Throttle Quadrant, Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals, and SideWinder Force Feedback 2 Joystick What I did was make a backup of the P-51D folder and then replaced the folders/files in the P-51D folder with what I have in the TF-51D folder.
