Input Settings

[hassata]

Is there anyway to import my Input Settings file from .07 without loosing the new additions like Show Briefing etc.? And is there a list anywhere of the new commands added?

 

Thanks

 

Edit: I generated an Input file by changing one of the key bindings. I guess now it's just a matter of editing the lua.

Unfortunately no way now. This issue/feature is written to our tracker, but work still in progress.

 

PS Of course, it's possible to edit custom input files (\Saved Games\DCS Warthog\Config\Inpu\A-10C\joystick\) "by hand"...

Manually editing the lua was straight forward. Thanks.

Is it just the two functions that need adding? Having spent a bunch of time setting up my CDU and UFC input I'm not overly keen on starting from scratch at this point.

[hassata]

Those are the only two I added. There's over 800 bindings, so I couldn't say for sure. P.S. I just added them to the end as No. 811 and 812 (I think) instead of the relevant section and that worked out fine.

Thanks for this little bit of info.. make the manual edit much easier! :thumbup:

I suggest you get a program called CompareIt :)

NP. Ivanwfr may chime in as he has isolated all new keys, so you should also give any lua he provides a try.

Based on last patch Input Keyboard default.lua changes, I would suggest theses keys:

 

[813] = {
   ["combos"] = {
       [1] = {
           ["key"] = "[b][color="Red"]B[/color][/b]",
           ["reformers"] = {
               [b][color="red"][1] = "LAlt",[/color][/b]
           },
       },
   },
   ["name"] = "View briefing on/off",
   ["category"] = "General",
   ["down"] = 1536,
},
[814] =
{
   ["combos"] = {
       [1] = {
           ["key"] = "[b][color="red"]\\[/color][/b]",
           ["reformers"] = {
               [b][color="red"][1] = "RShift",[/color][/b]
           },
       },
   },
   ["name"] = "Show debriefing window",
   ["category"] = "General",
   ["down"] = 1537,
},

Sorry-I forgot that I reassigned the Brief/Debrief keys in options, so my assignments may not work for you.

 

Definitely go with Ivan's code above. Just copy and paste over 813 and 814 at the very end, or amend the items in red. Use Note++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download).

Thanks iwanwfr and hassata...i managed to add new keys in option inside the game...

[814] =
{
   ["combos"] = {
       [1] = {
           ["key"] = "[b][color=red]\\[/color][/b]",
           ["reformers"] = {
               [b][color=red][1] = "RShift",[/color][/b]
           },
       },
   },
   ["name"] = "Show debriefing window",
   ["category"] = "General",
   ["down"] = 1537,
},

 

What does the ["down"] = number (or [up] / [pressed]) exactly mean or do?
