[solved] defaultinput.ini changes don't have any affect as soon as I compile

[uberman]

Hello community,

when my UDK is installed freshly, I can change bindings in the defaultinput.ini and it works.

But as soon as I create a custom gametype (derived from utgame), input.ini tweakings don't have any effect anymore.

I dont have much experience in .ini tweaking or keybinding (no experience at all i assume), but I think in earlier versions
of UDK it wasn't a problem.
That's the reason I posted this thread here. (btw. it's my first post)

Thanks in advance

Could someone pls just tell me if it could be my fault or it IS a strange problem ?

Or if you just don't know, please.

any feedback appreciated

It depends how you are modifying your DefaultInput.ini. There are difference between just modifying the command or using the "." prefix. Could you please paste your DefaultInput.ini so that I can see what you're doing?

I haven't run into any issues myself.

Ok, so a potential problem is that there is another config file also adding the binding to the C key. Check your UDKInput to see how many things are binding to "C". If multiple things are, that will probably cause problems depending on the "layering" of the commands. If that happens, you may want to use the "-" prefix to remove the previous config line.

Thank you for reply.

I tried the "-" prefix already with no success.
I've also tried to bind an action to an unbound key like "p" with no success.

The thing is, before I run UCC Make, everything works fine, I can change and bind, unbind every key to what I want, but after compiling it's over.

Seems that your configuration files are being overrided by something else.
