Re: I'm Logged Out and My Settings Are Reset

Thank you so so much for the reply! So I found the options folder but beyond that, I get a bit lost. So I save my current options folder (with all my updated options) and then when it resets, i copy and paste all of that into the new default options folder?

  • @AllyyC  No.  First of all, options.ini is a file, not a folder.  I realize this may sound like I'm nitpicking, but it's important to distinguish between the two when describing how to manipulate data.

    To the point itself, you save a copy of your current options.ini, and when the file is reset (which you'll notice when your settings return to defaults), you're taking a line from the NEW options.ini and using it to overwrite the same line in the OLD options.ini, the copy you made earlier.  Then you're trashing the new file and putting the old copy in its place.

    The specific line is the one that lists lastdevice as I mentioned before.  That's the information that needs to match, or else the game resets the options.ini file.
