Scream Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 if you have reinstalled your et it means that you have got a new etkey. If you didnt save your old etkey you'll have to start from 0xp all over again. As for the settings, I assume you've got a cfg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epicofail Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 sry bout that dude, my internet is being retarded lately.. This is what you need to do: 1. Remove/Uninstall your current et installation.. (make sure to keep your old et folder on desktop or something) 2. Reinstall the game. 3. All you have to do is drag your etkey from your old etmain folder to the new one that was just created by the installation. 4. Drag the map pk3 files to your etmain folder, if you dont wanna download the maps again. Also do the same for mods. (jaymod, etpub, etc..) Step 1 & 2 are not really necessary but if you want to start it fresh. You don't need to replace the entire etfolder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuthus Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Probably what epicofail told you will work, if it doesn't work do this: If you lost your ETkey, because you reinstalled or deleted, I have a possible solution. Go to Etmain>Right Click>Properties>Previous Versions and search for the previous one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanaraud Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 What epico said and your settings are saved in your profile file: under mod\profile folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volan Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 PFF guys thanks for helping me ive solved that problem:DD just i copied the wrong et main:DD btw i still havent got any solution about the system options eg resolution changing cause when i change the resolution and i restart et then it jumps back to 800X600 and i cant make the et to save my changes:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanaraud Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Thats a mystery to me also. Try to change it in both etmain and in the mod you play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreAtioN Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Thats the same as me. save it in your cfg, then do /vid_restart in console each time you join, easiest way im pretty sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanaraud Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Or you could just use \r_mode with values 0-8. Each of the value would give you following resolutions: 0 - 320 x 240 1 - 400 x 300 2 - 512 x 384 3 - 640 x 480 4 - 800 x 600 5 - 1024 x 768 6 - 1152 x 864 7 - 1280 x 1024 8 - 1600 x 1200 and type in console after that \vid_restart. Had to type it every time I connected to the servers, and after a while the need for it just disappeared. So beats me whats the problem..
