elchacal Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I'm updating the DCSW Beta to 1.2.0, the question is, how I could make a backup of the current config file (graphics, controls, etx).. Is possible? Thanks in advance. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yskonyn Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 It already stores all the config files in your My Saved Games folder, so you can uninstall and reinstall and it will remember all your options automatically.

lanmancz Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Not quite true - if you have tweaked some of the lua files in the game dir (graphics, input, labels, snapviews etc.) you need to backup those manualy.

Yskonyn Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Well that's common sense, isn't it? If you want to save files inside the DCS folder itself, of course you have to back those up if you are going to uninstall DCS. But the stock config files are stores in My Saved Games folder and are still there after uninstall.

LawnDart Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Well that's common sense, isn't it? The only common thing about common sense is that it's not very common amongst common people.
