activate console- not strictly needed (unless you measure fps by typing in a command- just like IL2)
paste console- dunno- mine is blank
only have 1 exit game (alt F4) -2 does sound rather strange
i changed my mirror to cntrl m. this is useful as just like IL2 it's an fps killer. Unlike IL2 CoD doesn't 'remember' your previous state so you start with mirror on by default.
Hopefully that's enough to get you going on joystick file- then you can get flying
