MarcT-NL Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 After installing 2.7 a few controls don't work anymore, which worked fine before. They occur 2 times in the control-option, in orange, and I can't bind them anymore. I saw this before in earlier versions of DCS but didn't pay any attention to it. But now this is just rediculus. Why can't I get the controls right ? What does it mean when they are in orange, and why do I see them twice ? Most important: How do I get this to work properly again ?

ZeroReady Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 This has been a problem for me for years. I've never understood it. Every time there is a patch, different controls become doubled, orange, and unchangeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours is not too bad to work-around. You have one line that should be bindable to the keyboard, and another line that should be bindable to joystick buttons. It's orange because there are duplicate entries for the same thing. I think it happens when the entries in the keyboard default.lua and joystick default.lua don't perfectly match. E.g. the P-51D canopy closing entry for the keyboard is {combos = {{key = 'C', reformers = {'LCtrl'}}}, pressed = device_commands.Button_2, cockpit_device_id = devices.CPT_MECH, value_pressed = -1.0, name = _('Canopy Closing'), category = _('Systems')}, but the joystick is {pressed = device_commands.Button_4, cockpit_device_id = devices.CPT_MECH, value_pressed = -1.0, name = _('Canopy Closing'), category = _('Systems')}, Edited May 6, 2021 by jonsky7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see these controls in my list. In your Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\SA342\joystick Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\SA342\keyboard folders are all the files in there xxxxxx.diff.lua? Or do you have some that are called default.lua? I know quite a while back they added all these pre-sets for commonly used joysticks, totally messed up my configs.

In the two folders you mentioned, there is no Default.lua. I'm surprised that you don't have this problem. I thought it was common for the Gazelle.

MarcT-NL Posted May 12, 2021 Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 So there is something wrong too. It seems you can't bind al the intercom volume-actions, except to a keyboardbinding maybe ? When you look in the axis-bindings you'll probably find the orange ones too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sn8ke Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) Latest update. I am using the Winwing Taurus Hornet throttle. I lost my pinkly light switch and strobe switch bindings after update. Orange in menu and can't change. Edited May 22, 2021 by davidzill Added information.
