skypickle Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Why does this directory exist when controller settings are stored in the config directory? Where does dcs look to load controller mappings? 4930K @ 4.5, 32g ram, TitanPascal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverdevil Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 @skypickle - config folder in main game folder is where other default configurations are kept. for example graphics.lua AKA_SilverDevil AKA Forums My YouTube “It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.” — Mark Twain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

draconus Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 I don't have it. You must've copied it from some mod or with some custom profile.

Colonel Akir Nakesh Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 I think this folder, at least for me, is when I save my stick/throttle/rudder profiles, it saves my importable/exportable file to this folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virgo47 Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Exactly, this is for explicitly saved profiles which can be done from the dropdown menu accessed with the little triangle next to the device name in the Controls setup. This way your files (e.g. for backup reasons) are nicely separated.
