Assign countermeasures buttons = black screen

[Nealius]

In 1.5.7 release version, assigning KONT, INT, and OFF on countermeasures to my X52, then clicking OK results in a black screen. DCS is still running according to task manager, but remains a black screen.

 

This does not occur in 1.5.6 Open Beta. Importing my Open Beta joystick profile to the 1.5.7 release, then clicking OK again results in a black screen.

Happened before, also in other aircrafts but Viggen especially.

Solution:

Start a flight

Hit ESC

Do your assignments

Save

Continue fly happily with new assignments

The workaround worked. Except the INT and KONT commands don't work; only the fast release works, and the programs don't seem to work either.
