Is there a way to keep my beta logbook?

Highly advisable to attend to a clean install of the release version.

I know that, but is there some file to copy logbook to new install?

I just deleted my Beta install but the old logbook was saved somewhere in the MissionEditor directory. Something like MissionEditor/scripts/Logbook or something like that, and it's called logbook.lua.

 

As this is only a simple text file you can open it with a simple text editor, take a look at your pilot's stats and copy some of them by hand to your new pilot logbook.

 

Edit: Oh and make sure to make a backup copy of your new logbook, just in case. :)

Oh, and only use the copy&paste procedure. NO modifications of values.... :smartass:

When I uninstalled the beta I made a backup of my old logbook. But with the release version there's no logbook file in that directory anymore, even though I created a new pilot. So, my question is: where is the logbook saved in the release version?

 

:dunno:

it's in BETA 4

 

Players.lua

 

as in

"..\Eagle Dynamics\DCS A-10C Beta\MissionEditor\data\scripts\Logbook\Players.lua"

 

in Final

 

logbook.lua

 

as in

"..\Users\<<>>>\Saved Games\DCS Warthog\MissionEditor\logbook.lua"

 

could copy/rename

 

there is campaign progress in there also

so perhaps editing is wise, it's pretty obvious

 

your results may vary

but mine, modest 8 medals :pilotfly:, went fine

How does the logbook track stuff, anyway? It only seems to register my kills at random intervals. I just did two campaign missions, got 12 A-G kills and none of them registered in my book but it registered the time flown and two landings. :huh:

 

And while I'm at it, how does it calculate score? It seems like most of the time, I'll get zero score regardless of how many things I kill. I also noticed that I score more after spectacularly screwing up than from successful missions. Two of my promotions in beta 4 came after horrific crashes. Posthumous, perhaps? :D
