i just reinstalled tribes 1... installed viking pack 4 like it says in the thread and copied the new t2 models and weapons into /skins... then i added all my z0dd stuff to autoexec... then i changed my fov in clientprefs... then i opened tribes... set all my binds... and played for a bit (my fov didnt save, it changed itself back to 120 when i opened tribes)... when i quit and restarted it, it deleted all my binds...

wtf is wrong?

Did you read the instructions at all?

Check Preferences.cs.

And.. what z0dd things are you trying to run together with my scripts?

after a little more testing... i found that only movement commands (stuff in the first list) do not save... everything else does.

im trying to run z0dd ski, drop blaster, kit, throw grenade, and throw mine.

ok.... i just totally deleted everything tribes related on my computer and reinstalled...

i did exactly what you said to do in the thread and it still doesnt save...

on top of that, when i first ran tribes after installing, the text of the menues was orangeish... when i quit and reloaded, the text became red with a black shaddow...

is there anywhere in the script that rewrites configs automatically on every startup?

I don't think you read the readme, cuz all of that is explained.

the reason your fonts have the black behind them is because the pack comes with new fonts, and that happens with all custom fonts.

umm ok, now what the fuck...

i deleted all the binds that make the numpad choose favs, but they still do... i use the numpad to move, so everytime i move it changes my loadout...

ok, nevermind... tribes just happily rewrites it for me every fucking time i delete it... thats really great... i cant get it to stop

ok i think u will find ur problem in config.cs, if u ran the pack once b4 changing the files, it wouldve made the default keys load into it...look in config.cs and look for the favourites binds, delete them and start tribes again. if that doesnt work, i have nfi
