Clarification on deleting input files

[ozTRipwiRE]

Hi everyone,

I am one of those who can not get the rocket firing reticule to work properly in the Huey. I read all I could find about deleting and backing up the joystick and keyboard lua files under ‘/Saved Games/DCS/Config/Input/UH-1H’ (as recommended by EvilBivol) and just want to clarify that I am doing the right thing before doing this. I opened up the ‘/Saved Games/DCS/Config/Input/UH-1H’ files and saw (for the keyboard files),’ Keyboard.lua’ which was modified on the 12 Sep 2013. Under the joystick files were the files, ‘Joystick-HOTAS Warthog…’ LUA file along with LUA files for my rudder pedals and throttle. I want to back up the input files that I am meant to delete. Would it do to just copy and paste the ‘Keyboard.lua’ and ‘Joystick-HOTAS Warthog…’ LUA files that I mentioned into a new folder on my Desktop and then just send the original two files to the recycle bin? I am not sure if that is what I am meant to do. These are the two input files I am meant to delete aren't they?

Also somebody mentioned that I have to update input files. Can anyone please tell me how to do that?

Thanks for any help,

The Problem is, that the Input Files in the saved Games Folder are not updated when there is an update to the DCS Software. The Files just store your input Settings. As with 1.2.6 there have been a few Changes in the Controls for the HUEY (new Commands). So..your Files in the saved Games Folder don`t know about them. Simply delete the Files for Keyboard and Hotas (you can backup them..but it does not make much sense), and the Game creates them new instantly with all the new Controls. The only Thing you have do to then, is go to Options / Controls and enter your Huey Control Settings again...
