No Autogen.cfg
« on: July 31, 2006, 09:02:45 am »
I dont have the file autogen.cfg and I need it so I can stop entering my name every time i enter a server.

Can anyone tell me where to get it or give me a working one that I can just put in a file

Try to start Tremulous, and quitting it. If I am correct that should generate autogen.cfg in Tremulous/base.

If he is running Linux, this might be a permissions problem.

Ya I realize thats my problem. Now I dont know how to fix it because the folder it is in has permision of 777 so anyone should be able to do anything to it.

as root, do this
chown [yourusername] /home/[your username]/.tremulous -R

For example, I would do
chown dustin /home/dustin/.tremulous -R

Volia! (Trem's first run is as root, it'd seem, makes things bad for you ;))

That is, of course, only if your homedir is /home/[username]
I've seen systems where it's like.. /home/U/US/USERNAME..
adjust accordingly!

Well, sorry, but the other topic was related to textures, but anyway.
Here is what i did to solve this
I made autogen.cfg 777 and made sure i owned it.
I did that in 2 places, somehow i have 2 of those files one in ~/.tremulous/base   one in ~/.tremulous/base2
then i opened ~/.tremulous/base and changed some options to look like this:

seta r_customheight "1200"
seta r_customwidth "1600"
seta r_fullscreen "1"
seta r_mode "-1"

and now it works.

thanks
