How to duplicate Warthog/TARGET profiles?

Hey guys,

Is there an easy way to take an existing *.fcf TARGET profile and effectively save it out with a new name? I'm looking to use a profile that I built for one of my modules as the basis for another, but I can't find any way of doing this.

I tried simply copying and renaming the *.fcf file, but that doesn't work. I guess it's something in the HTML that actually identifies the file.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

I haven't used it in ages, but can't you open it with script editor? Not the GUI.

It may be of interest to you.

I don't remember exactly where it ends up. But when you run an FCF file, a Target script file gets created, somewhere in a system folder. Just find that file and edit it. I will warn you that the files generated this way, are very ugly to work with.

Thanks guys. That gives me somewhere to start.

I see it's been 3 years since this post, but I had the same issue and wanted to share for anyone else trying to figure it out. It's not the most intuitive. But here's what I came up with which works nicely, just seems like a clunky way to have to go about it.

Navigate to your folder where your Target profiles are stored. C:>Users>AppData>Roaming>Thrustmaster>TARGET>Scripts

You may have to change your file explorers view settings to show hidden items (check box) in order to see the app data folder.

Once in here, duplicate/rename your FCF and TMC files accordingly.

Now enter TARGET GUI (don't expect to see your duplicated profiles yet). In the top middle portion of the window, click on edit configuration.

Navigate to the duplicates you've made, open them, and then save it as you would have with your original profile. Now once you've saved/finished and returned to the dashboard, you're duplicate profile should be showing up. Now you can go back through and tweak as necessary. Sure you could have done it before hand, but this was my process to just confirm them popping up in the gui, with intent to tweak later.

Thanks a lot, this was driving my nuts! Following your instructions is very easy, got it done in no time at all.

Cheers!
