Hotas warthog help

[Doc_uk]

ok so i have the warthog setup, get into game, only a few of the controls are working my hat switch works looking round ok.
But my weapons wont fire, so i go into controls option, change my machine guns to my gun trigger on my joystick, and change some other things a well
save it, return to game, and nothing, so i go back to controls menu, and theve change back to default again
If there any warthog users in here, can you send me your control config file for the warhog, so i can test it

1. You have turned steam cloud off?
2. You are saving your new settings to a file (I call mine joystick) ?

I feel quit stupid now, i was forgetting to click apply in controls menu lol

I did a clean install of steam and Cod, then did this
1) Browse to your game folder and find the folder 'redist'.

I found mine here :C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\redist
Reinstall everything in that folder direct x, net framwork4, and anything else
and i then did this
Go to 'conf.ini' and change 'Render=D3D10_0' to 'Render=D3D9_0
Then i restarted my computer, and the rest is history, i was in
performance isnt great, but im sure the patches will sort that out...

Thanks for the heads up with the steam cloud
regards

No problem mate,glad you got it sorted.Prepare for a STEEP learning curve...

Doc: why was it necessary to into the conf.ini files just to bind controls to Warthog?
I am going to use mine for the first time when COD arrives and was interested in your experience. Any other issues?

Have you also clicked "Apply"? This stumped me until I figured out that you just apply every key change then save it as a backup.
