Keybinding issue

[elSpartano]

I'm loading the custom keybinding file (.xml) that I've been using since 3.7.X to 3.8.1 but is not working. It is under StarCiticen>LIVE>USER>Controls>Mapping, and it shows the custom keybindings when I look at the options screen, but nothing is responding. I tried logging off and back on with no luck. Any help?

Hmm neverr happen to me, the import always work fine...
Just try to reset all the command to default and re-import them.
Have you try to clear a command, save and then re-map it by hand? does that command work if mapped that way?

I did remapped some of them by hand and they worked. I was trying not to have to do them all because it took me sooooo long to do it the first time

Then just try to empty all the command and re-import the configuration.
Just pay attention to the joystic association (Joy1 to Joy1, Joy2 to Joy2 and so on...)

I used to have an issue when the keybindings changed between the old patch and new patch. I think it was the new throttle system. some imported keybindings didn't work, while other worked good. What happens, button x is stock on binding a, button x gets bound to binding b. You get 2 modifications in your keybinding xml. The first where button x gets bound to binding b. the second where binding a gets cleared.
If saved bindings are different from new bindings, this can lead to problems. Cuginos solution works the bets then. First, reset all bindings to default, then start removing all bindings and bind them new.

I can feel your pain, but it works the best. At least you know which button has to be which binding. If you don't know it, then probably you didn't use that binding regular, maybe a button that is free for a more important binding.
