Il-2 Joy Control help | Forums

[Kalevala]

Hi !
My problem with Joy-Control :
I have a different joytick input profile for each kind of plane . So , when I change plane in game, I have to stop the game to be able to access to Joy-Control, select the new profile for the new plane (and save it in conf.ini), then restart the game .
I tried to use the Windows key to be able to access to Joy Control without exiting from game, but in this case the new selected profile cannot be saved to conf.ini
Though I know this is possible because previously it worked , but suddenly it does not work any more !

I don't think that's possible since the game loads conf.ini when it starts an any changes to conf.ini does not take until the game loads it at startup again.

Sorry, that is not possible.

Well, you may have been able to 'save' settings to Conf.ini before, (as in no error occured) but as Urufu states, conf.ini settings are being read upon game startup...

Even if you do manage to 'save' to Conf.ini while IL2 is running, exiting IL2 will have it write conf.ini back to its original settings with which it was started, apart from any changes you made in IL2 itself that is...

Believe me, I've tried this...
(If this were possible, IL2-Sticks would've had 'hotkeys', usable from within game, to switch profiles)

It looks like you haven't pointed joycontrol at the correct folder for your IL2 installation or installed joycontrol in the right place. I don't think I ever installed it myself, but if I recall correctly it has to either be installed in the same folder as the game or you have to tell which folder the game is intalled in.

I'll try that..Thanks Tully...
