Has something changed with keybinds?

I've been away from my PC for a few weeks and I've come back to find that some of my custom keybinds have stopped working.  It's mostly binds for the cyclic, collective and grips.  E.g. I had assigned shf+b, ctl+b to symbology select switch up and down and now they are blank in the options.

Could it be something I've changed or has something happened with the latest update?  I notice that the file

\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\Input\AH-64D_BLK_II_PLT\keyboard\Keyboard.diff.lua

which still appears to contain the binds, has not been changed.

        ["d3012pnilunilcd25vd1vpnilvunil"] = {
            ["added"] = {
                [1] = {
                    ["key"] = "B",
                    ["reformers"] = {
                        [1] = "LShift",
                    },
                },
            },
            ["name"] = "Symbology Select Switch - Up",
        },
        ["d3013pnilunilcd25vd-1vpnilvunil"] = {
            ["added"] = {
                [1] = {
                    ["key"] = "B",
                    ["reformers"] = {
                        [1] = "LCtrl",
                    },
                },
            },
            ["name"] = "Symbology Select Switch - Down",
        },

Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong?

  • Hippo changed the title to Has something changed with keybinds?

Thankfully, it only seems to be those two binds that are affected; initially I thought it was more.  I set them manually again and the following lines have changed:

Just out of interest, what are those strings, and why do they need to be different for the binds to work again?  What was the cause of the issue? Was it something I did?

Hello,

 

I an new on this forum but I play dcs for few years.

 

I would like to report a problem have on the Apache since yesterday, regarding the last Open Beta update

 

The IHADSS symbology Select swichs don't work any more. It is impossible to swich from Transition/Cruise to Hover/Bob-up.

If I start in flight, I am stuck in Transition mode and if I start on the ground, I am stuck in Hover mode.

 

The mapping is still good and the problem remains even if I map the sight selection on the keyboard or on another stick.

 

Am I the only one with this problem ?

Thanks a lot

Perhaps this is just a typo, but you aren't looking for the "sight selection" binds, you want the "Symbology Select Switch - Up/Down" binds.

I tried watching T-bone's track, and I can see the symbology mode changing on the IHADSS in the track, but I am unable to resume control of the track for me to try myself.

I also had to re-bind my Symbology Select commands after the Open Beta patch.

Coincidentally, I also had to re-bind my Pilot and Copilot/Gunner seat switch commands. They weren't removed, but they flagged a conflict for some reason. I re-binded them, restarted DCS, and it worked fine since.

Resetting the keybinds on Pilot/CPG did not solve the problem for me, it is still the case that when a CPG enters via MP the Cockpit, the modes skip as in my trackfile.

Not sure why this topic got merged. 

There were two threads regarding the the keybinds themselves being removed. These were merged together.

The tracks regarding a different bug were added to one of those threads, but the original thread topics were regarding the bindings being removed.

This is why different bugs need different threads. When people add information regarding different behaviors, it can be confusing.

IHADSS Symbology Select problem since last Open Beta update

is the track meant for this merged thread?

Does someone need to post a track for the multiplayer bug?

has the symbology select bug been reported?

It is not. As I said above, the two threads that were merged were regarding the removal of control bindings within the options menu, not multiplayer behavior. The person that posted those tracks did so of their own accord to one of these threads when the original topic was regarding something else entirely, and therefore when the entire threads were merged, his got moved with it.

Portions of threads cannot be merged independently of each other, because that is how the forums work. When people add information to a bug report thread that is not relevant to that issue, that is out of our control. Since the original questions regarding the keybinds being deleted after the last update has been answered, I'm locking this thread for now to avoid any further confusion that may be caused.

If someone would like to start a new thread regarding a different issue, we welcome the feedback for tracking purposes. Thank you.
