Saved Games Server.lua no longer working

[Nealius]

It was working, then after one of the OB updates it suddenly stopped. I had view entries to edit the 6DOF limits in various modules, as instructed here.

 

My entry for the F-86, for example, is this:

 

ViewSettings ["F-86F Sabre"]= {
Cockpit = {
[1] = {-- player slot 1
	CameraViewAngleLimits  = {20.000000,140.000000},
	CockpitLocalPoint      = {1.677    ,1.151,0.000000},
	CameraAngleRestriction = {false,90.000000,0.500000},
	CameraAngleLimits      = {200,-90.000000,90.000000},
	EyePoint               = {0.05000,0.100000,0.000000},
	ShoulderSize		   = 0.25,
	Allow360rotation	   = true,
	limits_6DOF            = {x = {-0.9,0.90},y ={-0.95,0.90},z = {-0.95000,0.95000},roll = 90.000000},
},
}, -- Cockpit 
Chase = {
	LocalPoint      = {-5.0,1.0,3.0},
	AnglesDefault   = {0.000000,0.000000},
}, -- Chase 
Arcade = {
	LocalPoint      = {-21.500000,5.618000,0.000000},
	AnglesDefault   = {0.000000,-8.000000},
}, -- Arcade 

 

But now it doesn't work, nor do any of my other 6DOF edits for other modules. I have doubled-checked that the name referenced in the code is correct. I have doubled-checked that the Server.lua file is in the correct Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/Config/View folder, and can't find anything wrong with it. Cleanup/repairs don't seem to fix it.

Currently I’m away on a trip, so cant check this at the moment, but will do on wendsday.

Hi, just checked my DCS and it is working as usual, my edits of Server.lua are still working fine. Hope you can find what is causing the problem on your DCS.

I deleted my Server.lua file from Saved Games and started from scratch. That seems to have fixed the issue. I guess an update caused some kind of conflict between the two files.
