1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted April 23, 2016 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted April 23, 2016 When using Windows 10, you may find that after a fresh boot of the computer, the order of the Game Controllers has suddenly changed. You will find that your controls are not assigned the way they used to be... The cause of this appears to be the 'fast start' option, it is new in Windows 10. And, by default, after installing Windows 10 it is switched on. So, switch it off! How? Simplest of ways is by disabling 'Hibernation', as most of us are using desktops and have no need/use for hibernation. Switching it off, also gains you some space on the system disk, side of some 75% of your computers RAM memory. Right click the Windows icon bottom left in the taskbar. Select 'Command Prompt (Admin)' from the menu. In the dosbox that now appears, type the following command: powercfg /h off (It will return no messages, if it does, you've made a typo, or have not started the command prompt as an administrator.) Next, type the command: exit All done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2. Administrators Jabo Posted April 23, 2016 2. Administrators Share Posted April 23, 2016 Does that turn of fast start too FT? I'm sure there were two things I disabled via power options? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It does. Fast start needs the hibernation file to work, and by switching off hibernation, the hibernation file gets removed...

Gypsy Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Digging up this older topic. Will the above fix work for controller assignments getting scrambled every time Win 10 downloads and installs an update. Currently I have a CH HOTAS (with rudder pedals) and the assignments swap around every update. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted December 23, 2016 Author 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted December 23, 2016 Cool, and please let us know the result, so next time someone asks we have an answer that has more certainty in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted December 23, 2016 Author 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted December 23, 2016 May need to check regularly, whether it still is off... mine was switched back on after an update/// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not use CH manager to combine the controllers as 1946 will only use 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_O_A_D Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Will it combine other brands than CH? Because I have the Microsoft FFB, CH pedals, X-45, X-52 Combo going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_O_A_D Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Good Stuff Crash Going to place it here so we have it archived also. Quote By flug over at ATAG Solution for pesky "joysticks scrambled AGAIN" issue That's bad enough, but today I lost all force feedback from CLOD because I'd installed another joystick driver that has forcefeedback, and that new joystick driver just happens to be first on CLOD's list--meaning that all force feedback went to the WRONG joystick. I think I have found a solution to this annoying problem. The solution allows you to re-order your joysticks any way you want, keep them in the same order time, and hide any joystick you like from CLOD. Even better, you can make different lists of joysticks/different orderings that will show up for different games. The utility is called "devreorder" and you can download (with instructions) here: devreorder home page devreorder download page Discussion with the developer here. I went through the whole process to install the new dinput8.dll in both system32 AND sysWOW64. However, I would very much NOT recommend that approach for most people. Instead, for most games, you can just copy the new/improved version of dinput8.dll to the same folder as your game's .exe file. (Same directory as Launcher.exe in the case of CLOD.) Launcher.exe is a 32-bit program so you need the x86 version of dinput8.dll. Just copy it to the same directory that Launcher.exe lives in. However, that didn't work. Bu then I had a bright idea and copied the same dinput8.dll to several of CLOD's subdirectories: SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover\parts\core SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover\parts\bob SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover\parts\IL2DCE SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover\parts\TEFCampaign I put a devreorder.ini file in the same directory as Launcher.exe (SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover). I've zipped that sample .ini file and attached it to this message--click here to download: devreorder.zip And--it worked! My joysticks are ordered the way I want them, and it seems to work every time CLOD starts. I just moved the offending forcefeedback joystick driver (vJoy) down to the bottom of the list in the devreorder.ini file. So, two points: You could do this too--it's a pretty painless way to solve the joystick scramble problem permanently. Download the devreorder .zip file Copy the x86 version of dinput8.dll to the five directories I've listed above Edit devreorder.ini to list your joysticks in the order you want them & place that .ini in the same directory as your Launcher.exe Does anyone know which subdirectory is actually the effective one to put dinput8.dll into? I would guess \parts\core - but it's hard to say without painstakingly testing every single combination . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2. Administrators Jabo Posted December 28, 2016 2. Administrators Share Posted December 28, 2016 I'm trying this now. +++ EDIT +++ The option of setting the entire system to use the standard profile for all games causes TIR to fail on startup with a DLL error - DO NOT USE THIS OPTION!
