I only say that its not recommend to change value's in the config files.

I was not.

In my reply, I meant "you" as in anybody who changes parameters outside of the game settings can be tagged a cheater and I agree.

You were fishing for an answer that had already been given. Don't change the config. You then argued against that, which provoked my response. You were sounding like you wanted to change things outside of the game settings (you called some of this absurd).

You seem to be tying yourself in knots. If you haven't changed anything great. If you do, you are cheating the system imo be that as, eliminating muzzle flash, recoil or adjusting your field of view or mouse sensitivity . You were looking for justification in changing them beyond what the game menu would allow. You had multiple answers here advising you should not alter configs but you persisted in challenging that. You then went off on one at Zeels answer.

Re read your posts. I never said you were a cheater, but you were pushing for justification for altering configs and were questioning @Zeelmaekers answer. It was pretty simple to grasp.

The title of the thread is in relation to MUZZLE FLASH and using config to alter in game mechanics.

I'm done. This is either lost in translation or just lost on you. I cannot be arsed, I'm sorry.

 @Pantleon  MY GOD..... I bet your the kind of person that walks into a supermarket and complains that the orange juice isn't made with real oranges and you keep harassing the employees who keep telling you its not real but you won't accept the answer.

You are clearly trying to push the narrative that I am cheating and at the same time saying you are not.

The sad thing is we pretty much agree on the muzzle flash, but you seem to lack knowledge about what the config file is and hence this argument. I have never heard of anyone reducing recoil in the config file I am pretty sure thats something you made up, i am pretty sure you can't increase fov beyond the limits and i am not sure why you would increase mouse sens beyond its limits.

And yes i find it absurd that I am not allowed to back up my config file for when i format my pc.

Why are there settings in the config file? Why is it in plain text? Why are most config files in my documents? Do you know if you can set fov beyond what the limits are in the game?

Can you answer any of these questions or are you gonna turn to ad hominem and carry out another personal attack?

@Pantleon I'm sorry. I think I have taken your questions in this thread, to literally in the context of this thread and it's title and not from your standpoint. I have assumed your questions were to lever the argument to justify altering muzzle flash.

I think maybe your questions would have been better served in a separate thread, but I apologise regardless, as I think I've got the wrong end of the stick. I jumped on my soap box of exploiters and cheaters.

My apologies.

"And yes i find it absurd that I am not allowed to back up my config file for when i format my pc."

I didn't read this before.

.......Ok now I'm accusing you. 😃 nah but hopefully you're aren't, because any exploiting has a nasty butterfly effect in-game with others. Both sides. An unfair victory is never earned and you'll improve at a slower rate.

Come on guys.
This is disappointing me a bit.

Don't mess with file and just use the in-game option menu.
It's the best way to not get banned, if you change anything you accept will accept the consequences.

No need to say oh he is cheating or being a snowflake.

We are here to get or give answers, not to to accuse someone.
