Cheat Menu not working

Postby Lame » 01 Mar 2014, 15:35

Hi

i experience the same issue like him: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6849

on top of that my cheat menu got disabled during the game after i tried to reset keys (i know this because i killed enemy acu with it first)

i had first disabled and then deleted my hotbuild and gaz folders aswell as my game.prefs before starting faf and this game.

These mods are messing with prefs file.

Once done, disabling them won't do anything. Can't really say anything more than "fix your prefs file" :)

it did work at first (i killed enemy acu with it)

then i tried to map and reset keys (which didnt ask me if i wanted hotbuild configuration)

after rebooting my pc i found myself with a new game.prefs file again (800x600 resolution)

and could replicate the same error i started a game could use cheats

tried to reset keys - cheat menu gone


i cannot seem to get rid of hotbuild by deleting the mod folders and game.prefs
it still appears sin my game.log and replay.mod

edit: maybe its worth mentinioning that i used a hotbuild version from forums and not from the mod vault?

No idea why your hotbuild is still there, but your issues is due to it.

I can't help you more, I know hotbuild breaks a lot of thing, that's why I've redone it.

Hi, I am having similar issues although for me f1 key not working, I get that it is probably because of previuos UI Mods..

Question is what is best way to fix prefs. file. Is just deleteing sufficient or should we reinstall faf. I imagine lots of people will have this problem. How can we fix??
