Hi!

I've done a clean install of UrT (3.0 to 3.1 etc. to 3.4).
I start UrT and customize a few settings then I exit UrT.
When I start UrT again the settings are back to what they were before I changed them.
It seems like UrT is regenerating its q3cfg settings from the one in the baseq3 folder.
Is this expected behavior?
Is it necessary to make a seperate config file in order to map keys etc?
I don't remember it being like this in the past but I'm not 100% sure of that.
I'll be checking this post for any new information.

If you have any ideas or explainations, they are welcome.

Thanks for reading this,
petr0lb0mb

create a config with a name different from q3config.cfg by using the writeconfig command once you're done with tweaking your config:

/writeconfig name.cfg

then create an autoexec.cfg file with the following line in it:

exec name.cfg

done :>. Now if you wanna make changes to your config you'll have to do a writeconfig

then why not /writeconfig autoexec.cfg? why the step via a 3rd cfg file?

but still: the problem u got is that u start urban terror via the mods menu and therefore the fs_game cvar says baseq3. that is why u load the wrong config file on startup

Thanks for responding guys.

I use ASE to start the game so I believe thats the same as using 'quake3 +set fs_game q3ut3'.

I'm familiar with using autoexec.cfg to start my own config but I've installed the game for a friend and I wanted to let him change his own settings from the menu without writing a config.
I guess I'll just make a config for him (which is not a huge problem), I just thought that it was possible to use the menu in the game for the settings but apparently they won't stick.

I just thought this was strange, thats all.

Thanks again. I have another problem which I'm gonna post seperately.
