Saving settings on exit.

[aka_nazgul]

Linux client works well for me for one exception - every time I exit the game, it resets all the settings. So I start with lowest resolution and default sound settings. It's quite annoying to change those every time.
Anyone knows the solution?

I believe its a bug thats been there for quite a while.

It only does this for me if I exit externally (by windowing it and using the window manager to close it), using regnum's exit key saves the stuff

Settings* are saved for me as well when exiting game normally, through the menu.

*: Except combat music / spell lvl in combat log. :/ *Very* annoying to have to adjust these every time I log on (switching between chars after log on works).

[aka_nazgul]

My client saves nothing regardless of an exiting method.
Maybe it's my local Linux problem, I'll look into it.

Forum Search is your friend, really!

Open your [Regnum Config File] (both, the one in /regnum and the one in /regnum live/ and add to the section [client] the bold settings ;)
cl_language=eng
cl_mapobject_load_radius = 2
cl_sdb_path = ..
cl_show_resource_loading = 1
cl_show_tips = 0
cl_terrain_load_radius = 3
cl_update_all_resources = 0
cl_user_name = regnum
cl_referer=gmg
cl_combat_log_colored_names = 1
cl_combat_log_small = 1
cl_combat_log_constant_damage = 1
cl_combat_log_power_level = 1


Save a copy first though ;)

Just to mention it, ive played with the other values in gameconfig file, to get rid of some of the specialeffects and give myself a larger view (fog starts farer off). This only works for mountains and stuff, players wont show earlier and now soemtimes areas far away (mountains esp.) pop into view bit nasty but i like it more this way. While trying i removed my textures once so keep a backup ready ;)

I found a simple solution!
Just create a symlink to the config in the regnum directory:
ln -s live/game.cfg game.cfg

Knowing this the developers should be able to fix this bug, too...

[NightTwix]

the newest changelog suggests that its fixed now:

http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/index.php?l=1&sec=27&subsec=2

lets see and test when the servers are back up

This bug continue to afflict the latest ro client and it create two "alternative" files:

1) $HOME/.rolauncher
2) $HOME/.ngdstudios/.rolauncher

I didn't found any cfg file in live folder.

PS. Currently i'm using Ubuntu 9.04, KDE 4.3.0.

[Innopeor]

Momentanely i resolved with a bash script.


#!/bin/bash

cp game.cfg.high game.cfg & ./rolauncher;


PS. game.cfg.high is the file contains my settings.

It seems to be there again.
Symlink quick fix works fine but for an unknow reason editing by hand the game.cfg and add the good resolution is needed.
