Is there any way that the etpubclient disables the use of profile's within the etpub profile and use the etmain one, placing the .pk3 file of the client into the etmain folder doesnt work since it wont download then...
It is possible, but I am not sure if PB is going to give you purity problem then. But let me first ask you a question: why would you want to use the etmain profile?
I dont have PB enabled, that is no problem, the point is everychange i make on the etpub profile doesnt get saved in the etmain profile, due reasons i want it to do this so, a easy fix would be to place the etpub client in the etmain folder i guess, but at that point it doesnt get downloaded
Well you should run etpub (including etpub server) from the etmain folder then. I am not sure if you can run with sv_pure then and you should remove the mp_bin.pk3 from your computer. It is highly not recommended though and will probably piss of guests of your server since their etmain config will get polluted by ETPub CVARS. Furthermore all players will have to retune their ETPub, since all settings are still in the etpub folder...
Yep, i tried that before, that worked, only the gameservers.com host doesnt like that, will do it when we get our own dedicated box, but i was just wondering if there were any other options out there.
I still don't get what you want to do... You want to change the etpub settings of your clients in their etmain profile? Why would you do that? They use their etpub profile when they connect to your etpub server....
If they do /set or /seta com_hunkmegs or whatever that dont get saved in the etmain profile, the same problem i got is that they "name connected" with their etmain name, not their etpub name...
no the fucking thing is that the client fucking loads the etmain profile when its connecting to the server, and after that loads the etpub profile. Like the players are are showing up "etmainprofilename connected" while this should be from the etpub profile, thats the general point, i know when game starts > load etmain, but the problem im having with etpub client is that it when it connects it loads etmain profile one more time, and then etpub profile.
Two things. First, you could copy your etconfig file from etpub into the etmain profile. But secondly, I think you are mistaken. If you open etconfig.cfg (the one inside etpub) with a text editor, you will find there are TWO places your name is stored. The first is the in-game name you use, the second one is the one that shows while you are connecting. Take a look.
et pub is a mod of et. when a user opens a game, they have an option to load default profile or new. they also have the option to load a certain mod, pro, jaymod, etpub.....
each of these mods have create a different profile because they all use different commands. your not gonna be able to use a bind for "playdead" in et pro for example. there is a reason that the profiles are seperated by mod.
you said it would be easiest to install pub in the etmain folder, but it would actually be easier to copy the profile you want and paste it into your desired mod folders as the default.
or when you are in the game, set your settings and in console, type /write config myname.cfg then if your settings get whacked out somehow, you can get in console, type /exec myname.cfg
either your not being clear enough on what you want it to do or we just dont understand why the way it works doesnt work for you, but either way, as most are here to help you, keep your comments a little cleaner please. dont hate the admins, hate the game.
