Sudden OFF/CFS3 error message configoverride

[zoltann]

Hi gents,

 

Been playing OFF for quite awhile now, no iisues before.

After starting today, I got CTD with message:

 

"Error updating config override settings-File does not exist-Reinstall.

C:/Users/.../.../CFSWWI OFF/Configoverride.xml"

 

Any solution apart from new install?

 

Thanks, Zol

If you have updated your graphics card drivers lately, you'll need to go to Workshop, click on Graphics Config, and reset your graphics settings.

Thanks BirdDogICT!

 

Spot on, that was it...

 

Flying again...if only the FF joystick had some default aerodynamical force instead of.... being a dead stick. No solution on that eh?

 

Again thanks for your help, zoltann.

Definately . . In WORKSHOP there's a white rectangle that states ' configuration' or 'video Settings' clic on it . . .and give it time to work, it's all auto. When it's done it'll tell you

 

Get used to this happening, anytime you replace a video card, update drivers, run system restore. It's even been known to happen sometimes when Auto Update runs

 

PS . . in the FFB Department . . Make sure it's ticked in workshop, and everything Except the Sidewinder II, uses a 24V power Pack, which has been known to depart without warning. Sooo if it's checked in Workshop, and the Voltmeter says 24V at the power pack. . . the joystick is fried

 

 

 

Well Uncleal,

 

Have an FF Sidewinder2. All ticket as u said.

Aerodynamical forces at stall and with flak and firing guns there, but not sensible when steep turning ect.

I think it must be an restriction of the CFS3 engine...

 

Cheers, Zol

Ok roger that uncleal,

 

Indeed funny that M$ hardware and M$ software (CFS3) do not harmonise.

All my other flightsims have no probs with FF, none of which is M$ (usual suspects: IL2, BoB2, Thirdwire range, ROF)

 

No intention of moving on as OFF is a class of its own...

 

Thanks, Zol.
