Saved control diff.lua files - - I don't get it


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

As I picked up the A-10C again in November I started adjusting the controls and saving them with a file name that represented the plane. Then when I added the F18 I saved it as such and then recently the F14. Yesterday I installed an M.2 drive and loaded it with windows and the Openbeta version of DCS. I had my saved control configuration files so no problem I thought and copied them to the new Saved Games/Openbeta directory. When starting DCS again and loading the files it did not contain my control settings. It is very easy to see as my MFD's have pitch, roll and rudder axis set.

I have no idea why this happened and it takes a lot of time to get them right again. so a few questions:

  1. When you load a file does it merge or overwrite the exciting settings? I would expect overwrite but I see the axis defined on my MFD's and that is certain;y not what I saved.
  2. I realize now that I did not need to save them under a specific airplane name as all planes are listed in the upper left corner.
  3. Where should I place my saved config files so that DCS uses them. Or do I always have to load them?

 

 

Edit: I just looked in the profile lua file and I dont see a full listing of all the commands, it seems to only show changes I have made.

Thanks
