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

Try enabling+disabling BUIS on any server and try again

Re: "you can not edit controls when backup sights are deployed"
not working unfortunately
EDIT:
Even on local account it won't enable controls.
- Windows 7 - Home Premium (x64)
- Latest .net framework
- tried both windowed and fullscreen
- tried with perf beta on/off
- admin session

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

Controls are the default one...[R-DEV]Mats391 wrote:Can you post your Controls.con? Something in there might cause it.
Issue resolved by joining a local server hosted on another machine. For some reason I can now edit controls without any problems even online

Weird. Let me know if it happens again.

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.[R-DEV]Mats391 wrote:Weird. Let me know if it happens 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.[R-DEV]Mats391 wrote:Weird. Let me know if it happens again.
Reinstalling the latest .Net framework and joining a local game (with online) account resolved the "bug" again.
