Problem configuring controls

Hi all,

I had to reinstall ETO 1.40 today due to a hardware glitch on my desktop.

Whenever I go to configure the controls, I create a custom configuration first then I delete the two axes that conflict with my joystick.

But, whenever I go to change the button I'd like to use, the game hangs up and I can't click OK for the game to read the new control settings.

Any help?

Maybe you can make the right joystick config in normal cfs3, save it and copy it to your directory in ETO
I use Windows 7, its in my C:\Users\Hanko(myname)\appdata\roaming\microsoft\combat flight simulator 3.0
take it from there and safe in C:\Users\Hanko(myname)\appdata\roaming\microsoft\CFS3 ETO Expansion_____

Good luck
 
Yeah, thanks!
I've never been able to get some of my joystick buttons to work in MAW and this method did the trick.
