New PC Build - migrating controller data


Recommended Posts

I will be building a complete new PC probably next week.

Trying to make advance preparations to get ready for this.

 

Regarding DCS controller bindings - can I just copy the relevant files from my Saved Games folder to a backup disk, and then just paste them back in my new Windows installfor the new DCS install?

 

Thinking this might be easier than worrying with an export/import of each device in the DCS controller menu?

 

Any thoughts appreciated.

Don,

The controllers have a unique id (GUID) and I *think* it changes when you swap out the MB. But I did use BitMasters tip of copying the files, matching it up with the new GUID, and pasting it in. I'll see if I can dig up the post or what I did.

Ok thanks. I will probably try just saving the files out of the saved games folder, but also export from within DCS GUI to have if needed as well.
