windsurfingstew Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) Is there a way to set DCS to have all default settings, but keep my module installations? Edited November 28, 2023 by windsurfingstew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Rudel_chw Posted November 28, 2023 Solution Share Posted November 28, 2023 just rename the DCS folder at /Saved Games/, say from DCS.openbeta to DCS.openbeta.bak For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's quite nicely designed, so I'll still keep my modules etc but it will be like I'm a new user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and renaming the original folder, instead of just deleting it, allows you to recover items that you may want to preserve ... for example, your DCS Logbook, which contains not only your rank and medals, but also the status of any Campaign that you may have on-going, or completed, is stored on the file logbook.lua, located at /Saved Games/DCS.openbeta.bak/MissionEditor/ Other items that are usually safe to recover from the old folder, are: Custom liveries, Custom Missions, and Screenshots. 2 1 For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
