So I need to make a new account; but I don't want to loose all my binds and settings, from my controls to my visual settings, whatever else. Any way I can save all my binds/settings to a new account? Or better yet, edit my existing name? :p Once upon a time I'd just transfer the config file but I'm not sure that can be done here...

C:\Users\pose1don\Documents\id Software\Enemy Territory - QUAKE Wars\sdnet\pose1don\base

in this folder you will find "bindings.cfg" and "profile.cfg". set these aside, create your new account, and replace the new files with your old ones. someone correct me if i'm wrong.

Use an autoexec in My Documents\id Software\Enemy Territory - QUAKE Wars\sdnet\[profile name]\base for your graphical settings

If you're using the same keybinds as your other config, just make a config file in My Documents\id Software\Enemy Territory - QUAKE Wars\base for your common things, and call that from your autoexec. That way, there will only be one file that needs to be updated when you change binds, hud settings, etc

You can also use the following command

WRITECONFIG

in consol put WRITECONFIG old.cfg

This will backup all the current settings to a file called old.cfg in documents/etqw/base.

You just need to search for this line

seta ui_name "yourname"

and put your new name then in your new profile in the consol put

exec old.cfg

You should now have all the settings as they were in your old profile.
