Controls/Load Profile

[Habu_69]

I guess I do not understand the options/controls system. I save my painstakingly constructed profiles for EACH control device for EACH aircraft. But when I try to restore my device assignments after an update, for example, by Loading those saved profiles, they do not restore the control assignments I saved. What is the trick?

You can backup this file....... C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\options.lua

 

And backup the files and folders under this directory......... C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\Input\

Yeah, I do save the files and back up the .diff files, yet when I LOAD those backed up .diff profiles, the saved assignments do not restore.

 

Update. OK, when I COPIED the backup config/input folder to the saved games folder, the custom device settings did restore. I still do not understand why the Loading the saved individual device .diff files from within the sim controls applet does not restore the saved assignments.

I pasted all my profiles to C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\Input\ and nothing happens.

 

Does anyone know why that is? Do we have any feedback from the developers? Is it a bug or do we need to redo it all over again?

 

EDIT: I'm with the released version, not the open beta (had no idea there were two). Mods can delete it. I posted at the released version section.
