Controller axes not being picked up by game

[123-Wulf-123]

Thanks Muesli, I can try it, bear in mind I have both my Il2 profile and my CH Hangar profile for CoD already, neither work, so I wouldnt hold out much hope.

What you could is email me your conf.ini?

See if that works.

Having said that WHICH .ini file is the one that I need to deal with in CoD there are four different ones?

[Meusli]

I can send you the documents one if you like, thats the one I think is used. Also the other profile I was on about is when you map joystick keys in IL2 COD it allows you to save a file as a profile. I could send you that as well?


This is my joystick config, save this file as whatever you wish then load it up in the control options and apply.

OK UPDATE

I did not realise in Win 7 that there are two sets of cofuser.ini files, one in the the Steam folder where the CoD game is filed, and one in the Documents>1c SoftClub>Il-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover section.

I have no idea why there are two sets of .ini files(on my system anyway)

Anyway....I copied the Documents/1C SoftClub/Il2 conf.ini into the Steam/Steamapps/Common/Il2 folder......and now all my axes work, the buttons don't (yet)

Going to fiddle about more
