SlapStik Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Hi, I'm thinking of uninstalling and then reinstalling DCS in hopes that my 3 Thrustmaster controllers will work in F-16. I've tried doing a repair, unplugging the controllers and checking all my DCS settings.... no joy! The F-18 works fine so DCS is seeing my controllers at some point. My question, do I need to deactivater/ activate all my modules or will it carry over since there will be No hardware changes? Thanks in advance for your response!

Rudel_chw Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I'm thinking of uninstalling and then reinstalling DCS in hopes that my 3 Thrustmaster controllers will work in F-16. I've tried doing a repair .. Before doing a reinstall, try the following: Rename the /saved games/DCS/ or /saved games/dcs.openbeta/ folder, say add a .bak at the end, like DCS.bak or DCS.OpenBeta.bak .. the next time you run DCS it will re-create the folder with a default config, where you can see if your controllers now get detected properly.
