Settings

Settings are a wonderful thing. They are not also easier then editing huge lists of variables or complicated script files. They are also faster and neater. You can add new ones for new mods or delete old one you don’t use.

Where are the settings?

All the settings should be found in the settings folder which you should have placed in you main/minatt or mainta folder. Custom settings files do not have to be found here though.

My settings don’t seem to be loading?

If your settings do not seem to load ask yourself?

Did I edit the settings?

If the answer is yes then maybe you have made a ‘typo’. This means you may have accidentally typed something incorrectly or placed a quotation mark or // out of place.

If the default settings do not load. Contact me or try including your settings in a pk3 file. I found on one Linux server this was necessary for them to load.

The main settings file

The main file is Mods.txt found inside the settings folder. From this file you can control what mods will run and on what maps and game types. You can also setup the map specific loaded settings to make the settings for a mod different on each map.

Editing Settings

Editing settings is a case of just opening the file in any text editor, notepad or WordPad are fine. From there you can change the files to how you want. The settings are actually a script file in a .txt instead of a .scr so if you mess it up it will not compile. Do not be scared, once you get it it’s easy! Each setting is a section in list array. Most are surrounded by quotations to make it easier for you. However some like paths are not. You simple have to change the text at a set place into new text. Each parameter is separated by a space so if you’re using a space you must use quotes.
