Config Unexecing
« on: March 27, 2013, 02:44:10 PM »
Every server I join my config un execs and it is bothering me alot. When I join DM my config unexecs and changes my settings to default and I have to retype exec blah.cfg and join, I do have a autoexec folder to exec my config. I need some help and I would like to find out how to solve this issue.

It would be helpful to provide your autoexec.cfg file, also make sure that it's located in the \baseq2 folder.
It's in my baseq2 folder, I'm also using the q2kicker client. Its just everytime I do the command *goto somewhere* my config unexecs. Even when I have a autoexec.

Probably somethin strange in an autoexec per folder or something that exec's default.cfg lol that is about the only thing I can think of that would pull a full default configuration... otherwise maybe you have autoexec.cfg copied into other mod directories, deleting them should fix that

For extra measures, and to prevent this from ever happening again, copy your autoexec and paste it in each of the mods you play folders.  I have my autoexec in my baseq2 folder along with the arena/tourney/opentdm/osp/bball/qpong/rails/jump/expertctf/ctf folders, that way I can also edit my config to each of the mods I play to better suit my play style to each mod with their different binds/features etc.  In arena(or RA2) in my autoexec in that folder I use for example:

bind mwheelup say_team "enemy LOW --[ $$loc_there ]-- CHAIN!"
bind mwheeldown say_team "enemy RAILED 80/20 --[ $$loc_there !!]--"

Whereas in my CTF autoexec, those two keys are bound to do completely different things:

bind mwheelup "use grapple"
bind mwheeldown say_team "TECH SWAP (for a sec)?? <%t>"

Just put your autoexec in each mods folder in your quake2 dir.  Problem solved.

bad overall because if you make changes to one the others won't reflect it

It is possible that you have different autoexec.cfg files in different mod folders. If so, delete the ones in the mod folders and leave the one in baseq2.
