I tried IL-2 Great Battles again, after installing the VPC setup, and my RTT companion controller.
When starting IL-2 I got a question if I wanted to transfer controller assignments to my new controllers. I declined, and thought I’d be better off just reassigning the controllers myself.
The controllers were assigned in the settings, but they won’t work in the sim.
I mean, they register just fine when assigning them, but when in the cockpit, nothing happens…
Evidently IL-2 gives every new controller a unique ID number. But any ID above 8 is not recognized in the sim. Not a problem for most users, but definitely for users like me, who build and swap controllers.
Solved the problem by deleting the entire input folder. That forced a rebuild of the controller devices and assignments.
Now the devices were numbered from the beginning again.
Yeah, thanks man!
This has tought me a lesson. Always ask @smokinhole first. He will know what to do.
To think I posted a question on a forum, like a total noob…
I really owe you one.
