#5904 - Map bug

[SNIPER62]

Seems to be working for me. Are you exiting the game normally?

[GOPHUR]

OK weird. When I tested online it wasn't working.

The map options are saved when yo9u exit the game. However if you exit the game with the map up and recent changes then they are not saved.

• login
  
• select persona
  
• switch to map
  
• make a change inoptions
  
• exit game with map up
  
• relaunch game
  
• select persona
  
• switch to map
  
• see changes not saved
  

Is this what you are seeing?

now the wired thing is on my laptop the settings.exe doesnt not work, it just doesnt come up when i click it and when i need to change my res or anyting else i have to manually edit the wwiiol.xml. with this problem the map remembers the settings just fine...

after looking at the wwiiol.xml file, it reads:

it looks like the game is saving the settings like it should but the when the game starts its not reading the wwiiol.xml file correctly and is just using the default settings...

HA! i figured it out...with Reddogs help. the code format is wrong

in the wwiiol.xml file, the line

needs to be changed to

and now the map will remember that bridges are turned off.

so for all of the map settings (stratFilter.) the "

i wonder how many other settings need to be changed like this to work correctly, hmmm

Reported fixed. Can you guys double check your individual changes?

it did save mine, but after installing the new version i went in and deleted the wwiiol.xml then ran the settings.exe and it created a new one. once i logged in made all the changes and logged out then back in, it worked fine...

Reddog said that he just installed the new version without deleting the old .xml file and it did not save correctly...

so it seems like the new versions of the game wants to start from scratch. this kinda seemed true for 1.33 also, i installed a fresh copy on a fresh hard drive and upon my first login when i set all the preferences i also changed the map icons i wanted off and it saved them just fine.

[GOPHUR]

Need someone to confirm that. I install without deleting and mine is working Win7 and XP.

NM retest shows this not working on my win7 machine.
