Snaps views resetting

The "forgotten" snapview settings only appears with certain mission files.

Check the mission file (it's just a zip with a different extension), there may be "baked-in" views under Config/View/SnapViews.lua. Just remove the Config/View folder and the missions will be OK.

This often happens in community misions, but even some ED's missions are/were broken this way:

That's it. It works ! Thanks.

btw: in my case it's some of the official F-16C training lessons which came with the modul.

Well, whatever... Enough effort with his matter.. Anyway, I have found the solution.

As mentioned,  I have marked the file SnapViews.lua as "read only" and after several days of gameplay,

I don't have this issue any more. 

If I want to change something in the SnapViews.lua I just remove temporarily the "read only" attribute

and then apply it again. No biggie. Also, my file SnapViews.lua gets backed up daily in my Windows 11 file history.

But remember, ED / DCS had a similar issue a couple of years ago, which eventually was resolved. Period.
