Revan Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 when i boot up a mission, my joystick and keybord don't seem to do anything, but i can hit escape and pull up the menue. Anyone know why my controls won't work??? DCS: F-4E really needs to be a thing!!!!!! Aircraft: A-10C, Ka-50, UH-1H, MiG-21, F-15C, Su-27, MiG-29, A-10A, Su-25, Su-25T, TF-51
Zabuzard Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Check your controller settings in the option section. Select an aircraft and the axis-tab. Check if your controllers are mapped correctly. Some missions start with the active-pause activated (pause symbol in the upright corner) hit the pause key to unpause. Did you select a mission where you're flying an aircraft which you actually activated (purchased)? You can select those aircrafts but you won't be able to fly them. Did this problem occur before 1.2.7?
Serp Supreme Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 What sort of stick you using? Probably an unimportant question, but you never know. Also another simple one, do you have it plugged in before you actually launch the mission? That seems to happen to me sometimes out of stupidity :D This post is protected by a pilot who has a serious lack of negotiating skills, but is absolute hell in a dogfight.

That seems to happen to me sometimes out of stupidity :D a saitek cyborg evo and i selected instant action for the A-10C (which was the first thing that i bought) but the problem goes away if i start a mission with me not flying, and then take control of an aircraft DCS: F-4E really needs to be a thing!!!!!!

Picksplitter Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Check your controller settings in the option section. Did this problem occur before 1.2.7? For me, yes! Once in awhile, and truly random, when I open World, go to the controller settings, I find all columns blank. I simply reload my files and everything comes back and works again. Now, each time I open World, I go to controller settings and double check. So far, after the initial upgrade of 1.2.7, they're there every time.

ED pls help Edited January 27, 2014 by willzah1313
willzah1313 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Bump! starting to have a big ol WTF about this guys, ANYTHING? Still will not work what so ever..... Tried deleting all the controls in \Users\*\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input no luck, still only mouse and ONE key works which is ESC. Cant change views, cant fly, cant do ANYTHING, except exit.... a re-install is not an option, my internet is not able to DL the 12+GB again.... HELP! Edited January 27, 2014 by willzah1313
willzah1313 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Found a workaround, updated the BETA and its works controls and all, so my question, WHY didnt it work in the normal update, and does it matter that the Beta is now the non beta?
Revan Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 My game just suddenly started working again. I have no clue what happened or what changed, it just started working DCS: F-4E really needs to be a thing!!!!!!

Cloudie Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) Hello, I have the same problem, my controls work fine (axis tune, buttons, etc) while in the options, but when I start the sim everything stops working, no keyboard or joystick input at all, except ESC. I can only use the mouse. If I click Adjust Controls in game, nothing happens and I'm forced to close the game. Trying to download and re-install the whole DCS World ATM, hopefully that fixes it. I'm using a Thrustmaster Warthog and ver. 1.2.7.23097 It's really game breaking for me, and I was just about to buy FC3 too.. edit: fixed after re-installing Edited January 29, 2014 by Cloudie
RedX Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) I am not able to save any changes to my MFD Cougar button setups. It always saves (after several clicks on the OK button) a file with the following content only in <user>\saved games\DCS\config\input\a10c\joystick\f16 mfd 1...lua: function layout() return { forceFeedback = { Yep, the file seems to be truncated and any changes are not saved. Keyboard and Thrustmaster Warthog joystick+throttle files seem to work, though. Very weird. Edit: It seems that I'm having this problem: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=118251 It is also discussed here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=119755 Any solutions to it yet?

I'm having the same issue. Nothing responds while flying. I'm running the newest version (1.2.7 I guess) on steam. How can I update the BETA? Thank's

lanna26 Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 SOLVED Guys, I contacted DCS support, and they solved my issue (imputs not responding, only esc key works). For anyone ho's facing this issue: Go on instalation folder (either "Eagle Dynamics/DCS World" for convencional version, or "SteamApps/common/DCSWorld/" for Steam version) look for Scripts/Imput, and delet Imput.lua file. I recommend to backup this fale first, in case removing it doesn't work. Now, enjoy the game :pilotfly:
ED Team c0ff Posted February 6, 2014 ED Team Posted February 6, 2014 I suggest you to try Steam Library: DCS World -> Properties -> Local Files -> Verify integrity of game cache... The problem seems to do with how Steam deletes obsolete files. Dmitry S. Baikov @ Eagle Dynamics LockOn FC2 Soundtrack Remastered out NOW everywhere - https://band.link/LockOnFC2.
ED Team c0ff Posted February 6, 2014 ED Team Posted February 6, 2014 Nope. Steam deletes the file when updating to 1.2.7 as it should. How this file happened to appear, or managed to stay in your game folder once again ... Dmitry S.

lanna26 Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Nope. Steam deletes the file when updating to 1.2.7 as it should. How this file happened to appear, or managed to stay in your game folder once again ... My problem was solved, and i had verifyed my game cache, and it didn't work. Anyway, by removing that file, i can now enjoy this game. Thank's
a1adin Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I have the same problem after updating to 1.2.7. All the aircraft controls on the joystick and keyboard do not work, except esc. And when I try "adjust control" in the pause menu, the game hangs. I will try deleting Input.lua, and will let you the result.
a1adin Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 deleting input.lua works, now the aircrafts controls on joystick and keyboard work. thanks lanna26.
