Retaining settings

[Kram337]

Hey folks, Why does EQ2 never remember the changes I make to the sound section of the preferences. I turn combat music off (because it always gets stuck in a loop) and I turn music up. I have to do this every time I start the game cause it doesn't save the settings. Any trick to getting it to save?

Let me guess.. Vista and you aren't running the game as Administrator.

[Kram337]

XP Home, and I'm admin.

Try editing the eq2_default.ini file itself?  I would assume you would set combat_music_volume to 0.oo and music_volume 1.00 ?  (not sure on exact values but it looks like it is in percent as a decimal.)

Are you running Fetish by any chance? If not, any other custom UIs?

[Kram337]

Yes actually I am using Fetish Nightfall. And changing my eq2_default file didn't work either =/ which is quite strange.
