Spitfire looses controls assignments in 2.5.2.19157 OB.

[Art-J]

Hello there.

 

It seems that introduction of clipped Spit in today's update 6 for OB brought a problem caused by lack of separate control assignments folder for this airplane.

 

Steps to reproduce:

a) launch the game;

b) create any mission on any map, in either fast or full mission editor with CW Spit as player's aircraft;

c) after loading the mission, the plane will loose all custom control assignments from the non-clipped version and revert to stock DCS controls settings. Then, if non-clipped Spit is to be flown in any mission later, it will loose its assignments too.

 

Steps to avoid:

a) launch the game;

b) create any mission on any map, or load existing mission with non-clipped Spitfire first;

c) after loading the mission (the controls will work correctly), exit and create new mission with clipped Spit, then its controls will work correctly as well.

 

Stopgap solution, which seems to be working for now - player has to manually create a separate controls folder in Saved Games location, named 'SpitfireLFMkIXCW' and copy all the assignments from non-clipped Spitfire to this new folder.

 

 

Cheers.

Really this version of the DCS is not sufficiently ready for the CW Spitfire.

Only according to the instructions thank you Art-J , it is possible the new Spit the use.

How could she be released version with such a major mistake?
