Did they all (or most) switch back to all weapons being in group 1?
Each 'Mech you own has a Unique MechID# that keeps your assigned weapon groups for each 'Mech separate from each other. Some 'Mechs get their Unique MechID changed apparently at random during patches and cause the Weapongroup information you saved to no longer point at the correct 'Mech any more. For those 'Mechs you simply have to reassign the Weapongroups again.
Another much more persistent problem is when the apparently randomly assigned "Unique" MechID is assigned to two or more 'Mechs you own. The end result is that each time you assign the weapongroup information to one 'Mech you overwrite the information for the other one.
There is no solution to this second problem. Many players have been suffering from it for over six months now, and the only workaround is to either stop playing certain 'Mechs, or manually correct Weapongroup information over and over again at the start of each match.
You can send a ticket to support@mwomercs.com and include a copy of your weapongroups.xml and omicron.log files but I have never heard of anyone where that actually solved the problem.

Thx. Well not all, but two mechs get their weapon groups swapped each time i change any of them. Oh well - if its only with these two mechs its not as bad as i thought (dont play any other mechs atm - so cant say for others)

Yeah, I've been hit with the second problem. I think my Raven and one of the Kitfoxes overlapps. It's hard to spot since if you don't play a mech for a while you don't know if it was a patch issue or the duplicate ID issue.
