Ok, it would be really cool if the size can be upped with the next release if possible. 16KB (or to be more precise, 16383 bytes) for config (atleast tested under linux iourt binary) is really way too small if people wants to add more advanced scripts in their client. Anything bigger and CBuf_InsertText will complain.

is that for all configs together or just one config? otherwise you could split the config up and load them with use of the autoexec?

afaik (correct me if i'm wrong) it does not matter one file or bunch of smaller files as they all go into CBuf.

My guess (again, i'm just guesstimating here) is that the CBuf is fixed to 16kb in Q3 binary. But perhaps this could be make larger with iourt binary. Atleast thats what i hope for ...

You can devide them into many ones indeed and it shouldn't be a problemo. I would up the limit in ioUrT, but that would cause incompatability when people decide to use the same config for q3 and I dunno what other nasty effects it may have.

Here's an idea: stop using so many binds and scripts. I get by fine with default (+modified controls, minimap, gunsize, and resolution) controls. I don't think I've ever used a script and found it remotely useful. Maybe I'm just a noob though.:(

Just because you see no reasons to make full use of this particular feature doesn't mean everyone should just forget about it ... unless you are a facist ofcourse :P

i use this

fs@my:~/ut$ cat autoexec.cfg
exec scripts/mousefeel.cfg
exec scripts/radio.cfg
exec scripts/ping_and_rest.cfg
exec scripts/binds_mine.cfg
exec scripts/togglesprint.cfg
exec scripts/bob.cfg
exec scripts/3rdperson.cfg
exec scripts/visual_mine.cfg
exec scripts/nick_mine.cfg
exec scripts/demos.cfg
exec scripts/sound.cfg
exec scripts/icculus.cfg
exec scripts/input.cfg
exec scripts/togglewalk.cfg
exec scripts/fun_and_race.cfg
fs@my:~/ut$

it's great.

ps. you can also do exec in the scripts themselves but quite an overkill for me.

Still running into the same problem by splitting them up.  :?

Can someone confirm this on Linux?
