Solved Joystick axis settings won't stay
-
Just installed 4.37.3 and it is gorgeous. Only problem I’ve noted is that my joystick (CH stuff) axis settings won’t remain saved.
Key bindings are ok, but axis settings have vanished. Every time I start the sim, I need to re-define joystick, throttle and rudder axis.
I can’t remember that I have had this kind of problem before. -
@Icarus Yeah that was the problem. I didn’t put a tab on the box that says ‘Launch without any setup override’ on the launcher. Now it works. Thanks!!
-
@Tunza Do you map your axis in game or via launcher?
I think recommended practice is to use launcher for all axis/key binding stuff. -
im sure this happened in earlier versions do a search. i think you save the joystick/throttle file as readme only.
-
@Tunza type in search. axis not saving. there is some info there from awhile back.
-
Likely you are setting them up in the BMS UI setup page and using Alt Launcher. This will happen every time. Either use old launcher and BMS setup page or use Alt launcher and setup in axis section of alt launcher. Check the box to launch without any override if you use the old legacy way.

@Xeno I’m mapping my axis in game. I’ll try the other way… thx
-
@sub101 Ok, I will. Thx!
-
@Icarus Ok, thanks.

@Tunza my advice, go ahead and map your axes in Alt Launcher as well.
redundant effort but only takes a few seconds per axis… will avoid this potential problem
