Steam Cloud - custom setting & controls etc??

[MadTommy]

Hi,

The game uses Steam Cloud, saving all your settings etc so you can use the same setup on any PC.

Well this is not a feature i will ever use.. i have one gaming PC and i won't be flying this sim on anyone else's PC.

I also understand that to make custom changes to ini files, for them to stick, cloud must be disabled.

So that is/was my plan.. disable Steam Cloud as i have no need for it.

BUT.. when i disable Steam Cloud i loose all my present settings, i will have to reset up all my controls, which tbh is a pain in the ass. (And doesn't make much sense why it happens)

Does anyone know how i can avoid this? surely my local PC must have these settings stored?

Thanks for any help.

it is a sync'ing sevice (especial for moving to machines in different locations)... latest change takes precedence.

its no different to sync'ing email and contacts between the iPhone/ Blueberry/ smartphone, etc and PC

No one noticed this or found a way around it?

Once cloud is off it should stay off I think,so there is no way it should change your settings.

I suppose i'm just gonna have to bit the bullet, turn cloud off and re-setup everything..arse.

Is there really no way to copy/save the settings from the Steam cloud to your local machine?

I, too, would like to do everything locally offline, as I'll never play CoD anywhere else but on my home desktop.
