Every time game starts it needs to configure
Hi,
Every time I start the game it runs configuration tool and auto detecting video hardware again and again. After auto detected, configurator makes changes to my previous setting, so every time before play I have to manually restore my preferred gfx settings. I try to run RW:1242 as administrator with no effect. My config is: Windows 7 Ultimate (patched up-to-date), mobo Asus P5Q Deluxe, c2q q9550, 4 GB ram, Radeon 4890 (catalysts 10.6). Best wishes, Zaratustra http://www.tanksim.pl/fire/index.php |

In the beginning, I had that also. But after a while it stopped, dunno what I did

The config launch is automatic if the game doesn't found the configs files in the players profile directory (normally in documents and settings\"user"\real warfare 1242 of your PC). Probably in some mode they are deleted each time you stop the game, foricing the game to relaunch the config. Verify after have stopped the game what appears in this directory.

In the documents folder there are files: <dir>profiles <dir>screenshots hardware.info resource.main.res video.info in profiles <my profile> is profile file "section.begin Engine : struct.begin ScreenResolution : struct.begin Width = 1680 Height = 1050 Frequency = 60 struct.end HDRType = htPseudoHDR DOFEnable = True AntiAliasing = aaDefault TextureFilteringQuality = tfNone WaterReflection = wrmUltra ShadowMap = 2048 ShadowMapEnabled = True HorizonRenderEnabled = True ShaderType = stSM30 CoverEnabled = True CoverPPLEnabled = False SelfShadowingTerrain = False PFX = True Sound : struct.begin svgMusic = 0.17 svgAmbient = 0.5 svgSFX = 0.53 svgVoice = 1 svgInterface = 1 Master = 0.65 struct.end struct.end [...]" I can write screenshots, so It means game has access to its directory in documents, but doesn`t remember configuration... It is a little bit frustrating to configure it manually during every start. Best Wishes, zaratustra |

Video and hardware are the files where are put the informations. Try to open them with notepad.

Thanks,
I started game, configurator --> autodetect, like firs time. I made some modification to setting (effects) then apply and run. I`ve checked `options` in game, everything ok, like set in configurator. Then I exited to windows and here is content of: `hardware` file: section.begin Version = 2.0 MMX = True SSE = True SSE2 = True SSE3 = True SSE4 = True HTT = True AMDMMX = False _3DNow = False _3DNow2 = False MaxMhz = 22348040 CurrentMhz = 97820880 NumLogicalProc = 4 NumCores = 2 dwTotalPhys = 4293963776 GLVendor = ATI Technologies Inc. GLRenderer = ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series GLVersion = 3.3.9901 Compatibility Profile Context GLFBOSupport = True GLSLSupport = True GLShadowSupport = True GLShadowAmbientSupport = True section.end and `video` file: section.begin Run = 0 section.end Then I`ve started the game again, and like the very first time - autodetect "You have to configure your video settings...". I cannot say if that are proper format and content of those files.... Best Wishes, zaratustra |

Can you restart again the game, and paste again the hardware.info after? is important to verify if exist differences or not between the two versions

Same exact issue here: Windows 7 Ultimate (x64)
Game is installed in C:\Games\Real Warfare 1242\ Anyhow, it is annoying, but seems the game loads your profile settings after launch regardless. Files appear to be identical after redetect (Winmerge) Think the game is simply not reading the "run" var in the config and does not know the game was already run and setup for the first time. |
