It's ok - I've been looking forward to a good SU-15 Flagon sim for ages.



I'll see myself out.

Jokes aside, do folks know what sort of impact to addons this'll have, or is holding one's breath the standard MSFS SOP?

Thx for info, a little pity but better to have less bugs than more .

 

[Killbilly]

Frankly, I'm glad. I just have everything working perfectly and all my addons just right. It seems like every Sim Update comes with several issues that take time and effort to sort (or learn to live with). This gives me a little more time just to enjoy the sim.

I generally detest updates of any kind, like the one's (Popular fruit) brand slows down their phones with. Was gone in NZ for a month and as soon as I fired up the 2020 MSFS both the computer and the sim updated and then adding. All that was working previously was not. Some of it semi sorted but not wholly just win time for the next go around.

New mandatory update today (1.5G) - and now my entire stick mapping/binding got erased! GRRRR

Where is this file saved, so I can back up a copy for the future?

thx,

dl

 

[Daube]

Are you sure it was erased ? You don't simply need to reselect the profile you had created in the past ?

 

[ZsoltB]

I have no update

 

[Priller]

I had that update as well. Steam version here.

I was only Marketplace, Sim World update, not a game update (patch, like current beta). This will be 30/04.

Yes. It's gone.

Scrolling on the controller configs in the sim (left to right) shows none of the profiles I created, only "default". And that default profile has no control inputs from my stick/throttle (VKB Gladiator + throttle quadrant).

So I'm curious where those profiles are saved, in order to preserve them in the future. It's a major exercise to set up all the axes, all the buttons, etc.

thx

PS - the update I'm referring to (1.5G) was for my setup which is in Steam, just to clarify that it doesn't look like it was part of the coming SU-15 per se. But again, when that hits in under two weeks, I don't want to repeat this controller setup exercise.

From what I've read, I think all profile settings are stored in the MSFS cloud now. I purchased from Steam, and had the same update, but no problems.
The only thing I can think of, if you haven't already done so, is to check that you're still signed in to your MSFS account (on the main MSFS menu, click
on your user name in the upper right hand corner). I don't know if there's a way to reset or re-synch your MSFS cloud account.

 

[tiger1962]

Settings are stored in the cloud, but also on your PC - on startup a message window sometimes appears asking me if I want to "use the settings on this PC (older) or the cloud (newer)." ALWAYS pick whichever is newer!
On PC, the controller settings are stored in the wgs folder: AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\wgs

 

[delta_lima]

Now my entire bindings profile won't persist.

I create it (again). Save and apply. Exit the game, and it disappears. The name of the profile is there, but there's nothing assigned.

This is is so annoying.

 

[RobM]

Just a thought: have you checked that your Online Functionality is still on (under General Options->Data)? I've had
updates in the past that have turned it off. I mention this since profiles are stored in the MSFS cloud.

Hi,

Yes - I did - it's turned on.

I'm on Steam, so my controller configs appear to be located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\1689987858\1250410\remote

Additionally, I see a number of files named "input_profileXXXXX" where the Xs are a string of numbers. The file dates correlate to days I tried to reset the configs. Considered deleting them all, but was unsure if that would mess up something.
