"you can not edit controls when backup sights are deployed"

Post by winject »

Can't change any controls in game anymore no matter if you're in the main menu or already playing, I had to run bf2 in order to change it there and then finally swap the control.con file within the pr profile folder.

not working unfortunately
  • Windows 7 - Home Premium (x64)
  • Latest .net framework
  • tried both windowed and fullscreen
  • tried with perf beta on/off
  • admin session
I disabled all antivirus and antimalware software as well.

EDIT:

Even on local account it won't enable controls.

Can you post your Controls.con? Something in there might cause it.

Controls are the default one...
Issue resolved by joining a local server hosted on another machine. For some reason I can now edit controls without any problems even online :razz:

I'm going to install Project Reality on 12 different computers in my local internet café, I'll let you know if this issue will pop up again.

Sorry for posting twice in a row but I finally installed PR on different computers and the issue showed up again. All the computers have the same components and software so I don't know why this is happening on only 3 of them.

Reinstalling the latest .Net framework and joining a local game (with online) account resolved the "bug" again.
