[Tool] DCS Configuration Manager


FitzZZ

Recommended Posts

Can't close game

 

When I exit the sim I get the little window asking me to log in and then it launches the sim again if I log in again or cancel on an endless loop of restarting and asking for log in. I have to force computer to shut down and reboot.

It does this either by direct connection, using the config mgr shortcut(s) or from my Steam account. I purchased the sim, terrains, campaigns and aircraft through DCS but have them enabled in Steam as backup.

This problem arose with update 4 and the same time period as a Win 10 and Oculus patch. Don't know if they're related.

Log attached.

I'm also having a problem that may be Config Manager related. No matter how I try to run DCS it always opens in VR mode.

Oh, sorry. I thought you were offering a suggestion as to the cause of the problem(s).

 

Here's the link to what had been a handy tool for me prior to update 4 etc.

I am at my wit's end trying to get this resolved and everyone is telling me to get lost.

It's your configuration manager. Can't you offer a suggestion? I posted here on a topic that was similar to my problem and I thought maybe related.

I see you're in Va Beach. I'm in Roanoke. I'll pack up my desktop and drive the 3 hours to your place to get this taken care of.

My apologies. I've only slept a few hours in the past three days trying to find assistance.

So looking at the tool, I would create/use the VR shortcut to launch DCS, but disable VR in DCS?

 

Thank you for your assistance! I told Hollywood_315 (of Vaicom Pro) it's folks like you who really make this community shine! Cheers!

Hey soupyc,

 

sorry for the super late replay, I am travelling atm.

 

If you haven't tried yourself already: yes, the tool will create the VR config once, automatically enabling VR in that config. If you start the VR version and disable it in the settings, it will stay that way. Hope it works out for ya!

 

(I don't quite understand the remark about Hollywood_315 though :-) )

 

Cheers

FitzZZ

Sup gordon200,

 

I am currently travelling, thus my late response and very limited resources to help right now. The thread that got merged with mine here confuses me a little.

 

To clear things up for me, are these your problems?

  • The game always starts in VR mode when using the links created through DCS CM
  • whenever you use the DCS CM made shortcuts and exit the game, you get into a login loop

 

I saw you mentioning that the second one also happens for shortcuts in Steam. Does that shortcut start the game directly or does it actually call the DCS CM .exe?

 

 

Cheers m8,

FitzZZ

There seemed to be multiple problems with Steam/Oculus/DCS sync as well as a corrupt GPU driver. So I deleted everything on hard drives down to bare OS and reinstalled. I haven't had the time to fly yet but everything seems to be operating for the moment.

I'm taking the opportunity to approach things with a fresh attitude and clean slate.

Many thanks for your hard work.

Cheers

For mapping I have DCS release version that I am sharing controls from for my DCS beta planes. I have a new plane [f-18] installed on DCS beta not on DCS release, how does the new plane get configured in DCS configuration manager if it's not on DCS release version?

 

 

Thank you.

FitzZZ,

Question for you. Is there a way to use two different config files? I don't mean switching between VR and non-VR. But being able to have two different game settings, one for VR and another one for non-VR. This would be for both Beta and GA, so there would be a total of four different configs. Thanks

This tool is really useful if you want to shift between VR and normal monitor frequently without having to toggle all the display settings and restart DCS 1 or more times. DCS should have this capability built into the default launcher (like Aces High does!), but since it doesn't, this tool gets the job done. Thank you!
