fencible Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I'm having problems with my Huey - it won't start (I've been flying it for many months, but just switched it to DCS Beta stand-alone). I suspected control setting issues, but when I looked in my control setting menu I found duplicated control entries. I've also seen this issue in my MiG-21 module. Can anyone tell me which file the command settings for a module are stored in, and suggest a way to repair or refresh this file? Running 'DCS_updater repair' command does NOT fix this issue.

FragBum Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 This is "normal" for DCS it will attempt to assign every controller to axis and keys. Just delete the incorrect settings out. If you still have a backup of your old input cfg's you might be able to drop them back in, else they may well have be overwritten. They live C:\Users\username \saved games\DCS\config\input Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment. Gazelle Mini-gun version is endorphins with rotors. See above.

Holton181 Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 The duplicated (orange) control entries for my ED modules are gone, including the Huey, since yesterdays beta update. I still have several of them in the Gazelle and Viggen.

fencible Posted March 17, 2019 Author Share Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) This issue has disappeared for me with the newest beta release. Thanks for your help. ....NOT - problem is now back again! Edited March 17, 2019 by fencible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fencible Posted March 17, 2019 Author Share Posted March 17, 2019 This issue has disappeared for me with the newest beta release. Thanks for your help. ...AAAnnnd this issue is now back with the latest Beta release - same corruption in the key bindings with two lines for a single control function. Both lines show as yellow. Something is corrupting the file(s) associated with control bindings in the Huey. I was having similar problem with the MiG-21 and MiG-19 before.

The version I have and had when posting above is 2.5.4.28461, and running the updater (using Skate Zillas tool) doesn't reveal any more resent. As I mentioned above, the duplicates are not present for me anymore.

It was clear when I first flew the Huey, but after that 1st flight, the key-binding issue was back again. Something is corrupting the key-binding menu on me.

majapahit Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 If it wont repair by itself it means you have to rebind, or more drastic, you have to delete either the full saved games <DCS> user dir or at least the .\saved games\<dcs version>\config folder which hold the binding definitions for DCS to rebuild the correct updated ones, which will have the usual double bindings for axis that you have to re-configure. | VR goggles | Autopilot panel | Headtracker | TM HOTAS | G920 HOTAS | MS FFB 2 | Throttle Quadrants | 8600K | GTX 1080 | 64GB RAM| Win 10 x64 | Voicerecognition | 50" UHD TV monitor | 40" 1080p TV monitor | 2x 24" 1080p side monitors | 24" 1080p touchscreen | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried to remove it completely and no MODs, but still corrupted entries, even many that I never touched/assigned. Now all ED modules are fine for me but still some others got them.

If not the saved games then the only other place is the default files in install dir x:\DCS\Mods\aircraft\F-15C\Input for F15 for instance, and if these are unnoticed in DCS repair, you delete (or rename them .backup or something) and do a DCS repair again, and most likely DCS repair will notice now they're not there BTW My Huey as a false double command anyway, there seems to be a typo in either the default keyboard or joystick and nothing that can be done, but no harm, so dont care Edited March 19, 2019 by majapahit | VR goggles | Autopilot panel | Headtracker | TM HOTAS | G920 HOTAS | MS FFB 2 | Throttle Quadrants | 8600K | GTX 1080 | 64GB RAM| Win 10 x64 | Voicerecognition | 50" UHD TV monitor | 40" 1080p TV monitor | 2x 24" 1080p side monitors | 24" 1080p touchscreen | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
