Untill today, I was adding or editing something in file etqwbinds.cfg every day. And I had no problems untill I installed the patch today. I wanted to add a bind for something.. I did it and entered a game.. Tried that key, and NOTHING. I closed the game and looked the file.. the command I added wasn`t there. I first thought I spelled it wrong or something.. Then I tried to change/erase one of my old bind commands in the file.. Entered a game, and nothing was different. Looked in the file after, all the same as the moment I installed the patch :confused: :confused:

Tried few more times to change/add/erase something from the file, but the moment I enter the game, etqwbinds.cfg becomes the same it was at the moment of patch intalation :mad:

Can anybody help me, pls??

This would be one of the reasons to create an autoexec.cfg and not edit etqwbinds.cfg.

What did you try to add to etqwbinds.cfg?

i even tried to just erase one word in some "say" bind, and when I enter the game, the word is back :rolleyes:

In what folder does the etqwbinds.cfg file you are trying to edit reside?

huh.. after few hours of trying, I figured it out five minutes after I posted it on the forum

before the patch game read bindings from:

My Documents\Enemy Territory Quake Wars Public Beta\base\etqwbinds.cfg

and now, it`s reading it from here:

My Documents\Enemy Territory Quake Wars Public Beta\sdnet\NICK\base\bindings.cfg

and the moment you enter the game it coppies this file to the first one :mad: great rofl

but, if you create an autoexec.cfg and put it into My Documents\Enemy Territory Quake Wars Public Beta\base\, this should override both
