Title: BIG mistake [SOLVED]
Post by: swamp-cecil on November 02, 2010, 02:37:23 am: so, i was redownloading tremfusion, but when i put it in my tremulous folder, i accidentaly replaced tremulous.exe. i downloaded the .zip of tremulous, put it back, and it still dosent work. I cant play tremulous until this is fixed :'(

well, i CAN play 1.2....but i want to go on 1.1 servers.

i think i have to probably exec autogen.cfg. ill try...

Post by: swamp-cecil on November 02, 2010, 02:41:41 am: no. just starts up normally. It reads data from from the base folder that is in the folder that it is in. i want it to also use the one in C:\Documents and Settings\*MyName*\Local Settings\Application Data\Tremulous

AFAIK the stock 1.1.0 windows version only uses the program files path only versions based on SVN used "home" directories so you got to get one of the backports like tremfusion mgclient fsm etc and install it

download the backport from tremulous.tjw.org
I'd be more inclined to just grab the mgclient from http://releases.mercenariesguild.net/client/

Post by: swamp-cecil on November 02, 2010, 08:00:49 pm: does it matter which backport i get? do i have to use the same one i was using before?
Title: Re: BIG mistake
Post by: Tremulant on November 02, 2010, 08:07:04 pm: no idea, just download the mg client and try it, back things up first if you're overly concerned.

Post by: Celestial_Rage on November 02, 2010, 08:25:45 pm: Overwriting the original tremulous.exe client with Tremfusion shouldn't break your trem install. Therefore, I surmise that the problem lies elsewhere and replacing your current client will not solve the problem. Have you deleted anything tremulous related? Also--

Um... Isn't that what it's supposed to do?

Tremfusion reads from here as well. I don't get what you are trying to accomplish.
