BF4 settings editor

Hi,

I just wanted to ask if it is allowed to use the bf4-settings-editor from [Removed] ?

so I could change my settings outside the game.

    Heya everyone,

    We now have had more time to review this internally and would like to let you know that it is okay to edit this file, either with notepad directly or with the aforementioned editor (given its current functionality).

    Please note however, that you are editing at your own risk! Especially after any patch, you may want to revert back to default in case you notice any weirdness.

    Cheers,

    Nils

  • Even if this isnt editing the game content itself and simply the config files its seen as an illegal tool?

  • EAguy what if i go here C:\Users\user\Documents\Battlefield 4\settings and open the PROFSAVE_profile with notepad and edit the settings, is this deemed "an unauthorized program" because that's basically all that program does that he posted lol

    Completely agree with you Sextoy, I guess they should put some kind of protection on it to stop notepad being able to read it too.

  • This is truely great news, just need to make sure having the latest version and always back up the settings before modification.

    Now I can check and change key bindings and other settings before entering the game easily.
