DCS 1.2.14 reset all controls and settings!

[MA_Goblin]

Hi,

When I installed the update today every single control and setting reverted to standard. Have to set up everything from scratch again.

Any one else suffering this hickup?

All of mine are still as set...however now all the terrain is a bit screwy...ie; looks like the airfields are floating on water... (all mods uninstalled)

 

I have checked:

A-10C

F-15

UH-1

MI-8

P-51

HAWK

SU-25

SU-27

Back up your settings next time...

@blackbelter: LOL the obvious answer :thumbup:

The simple truth is that I have reinstalled and rearranged everything and simply forgot to backup. Just wanted to know if any one else had this :music_whistling:

not for me:

although those diff files modification time is updated, no content changes

Hakjar; Check this folder:

 

"C:\Users\{username}\Saved Games\DCS\Config\"

 

If there's a a folder named "Input", probably your controller files are in it.

Found the problem!!

Star Citizen is an obnoxious software that demands admin rights and to come around this I activated UAC and told it to run as admin.

But, doing so DCS and some other games also wanted UAC permission. By giving this permission DCS created a new folder under

the administrator account and put everything in that. So by disabling UAC I got everything back again :thumbup:

Good finding! I bet this will help some other people also. :thumbup:

Oh, the joys of pc gaming.

Disabling UAC is the first thing when installed Windows.

 

So, result didn't change, right? You have to assign your controls from scratch?
