HiJack Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 OpenBeta 1.5.4 comes with a bunch of new options. Rename the Options file in "Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/Config" folder and set up your options manually! Works fine here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zerO_crash Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Were there are non that correlate black screen with application of key bindings. However, I fixed it for myself by copying "input" folder from 2.0. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cibit Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Basically anything done in the options menu, after pressing OK cause Black Screen You may find trouble after copying 2.0 inputs, 1.5.4 adds other options which may conflict or not actually show up after using other file i5 8600k@5.2Ghz, Asus Prime A Z370, 32Gb DDR4 3000, GTX1080 SC, Oculus Rift CV1, Modded TM Warthog Modded X52 Collective, Jetseat, W10 Pro 64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Adding JTAC Guide //My Vid's//229th AHB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoNa Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I fixed it by changing the monitor settings to 1920x1080 save, exit, reload and change to single 5990x1080 again (I'm on triple monitors) . Now I can set any buttons without it black screen. btw, I have noticed that "tree draw distance" does not make any differance if i run as a single monitor, they popup as i get closer or zoom in, regarless what setting I put. If I run it as 3 monitors, I can see the trees drawn far away without any popping trees, but of course the fps is halved instead. I tried to search the forum for any information / solution to fix it when running as one screen as it gives better fps but I got too much or wrong information. Hoping to get a gtx1080 in the autumn which might allow me to run as 3 screens at 60fps min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederf Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 (edited) I'm having a weird issue. I have all 3 branches installed and both Release and OB are reading from the main Saved Games\DCS\Config\options.lua. Open Alpha is reading from it's proper Saved Games\DCS.openalpha\Config\options.lua. None of the three branches seem to be reading from Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\options.lua at all. What I did do is edit Saved Games\DCS\Config\options.lua to add the VR text block and it fixes the error. I can even edit the pixel density and I can see it is writing to this file successfully. However I'm still concerned that I have two branches both writing to a single options.lua and another options.lua not being used at all. That shouldn't happen. I may have specified a controller profile .diff.lua between Saved Game directories across branches and DCS might have "back solved" the wrong directory from that. EDIT: I also tried deleting any-all of the 3 options.lua and running the various branches and they never automatically recreated this file as it was missing. Does anyone know where it is defined which Saved Games\DCS.XXXXX\ directory each branch will use? EDIT2: OK it seems that DCSW Release Branch will recreate options.lua in its directory if deleted but Open Beta Branch won't (it's trying to write to the DCS\Config\ folder and maybe it doesn't have permission.) However it does have write permission to change options through the OB software if the file already exists but does not have the ability to create the file if it doesn't.

Frederf Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Thank you, unfortunately a deleted options.lua cannot be recreated by OB (black screen) but now OB is using the OB saved game path and can edit an existing file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cletust8 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 ok, to clarify, I changed a lot of settings then clicked ok and it hung. I've tried it several times since just changing one or two at a time and it's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
