Hello all,

I’ve been trying to get my Panzer Elite installation running with the latest Ostpak 2 mod, but somehow my controls are all mucked up. With my previous PzE setup I had things configured so that my CH throttle gave me acceleration and deceleration, my CH pedals steered the tank, and the CH joystick controlled the turret and gun.

Now though when I enter a scenario, my tank doesn’t go anywhere. Tried re-doing my controls setup, but that hasn’t worked. Best I get is tank slewing to the right “on the spot”.

Seems my control config file is messed up, so I need to replace it with an earlier copy. Trouble is, I don’t know its name or location. Can anyone help me with that please?

Cheers

Mike

PE/data/layout.txt is the programmed commands. The file starts with the total number of commands. My last build of the game engine had 166 commands
PE/data/keytable.txt is the verbiage used.
PE/data/layout1.txt is the default lauded when you reset the controls.

PE uses Direct Input. It is possible that Win10 has broken that.
