DaggerFall - viewplyr.dat file overwritten?

Post » Fri May 13, 2011 3:43 pm

I had Daggerfall running with the WASD keyboard configuration, by changing controls to viewplyr.dat in the z.cfg file.

However, I accidently clicked the "Default" button in the Contols setup, and now I can't get the WASD configuration back, unless I manually change the keys myself.

Does anyone know how to fix this.

Thanks,

Dan

Try changing it back to base, load the game, then return it to view. It should "reset" it.

I tried changing it back and then resetting it to viewply.dat.

Unfortunately it didn't work.

Just grab another copy of the game and find a good copy of the file. Or maybe a friend who has a copy can send you a proper copy. I'd have already done it myself if these boards allowed file attachments.

I found a solution.

If anyone else runs into this problem, here is the solution.

There is a copy of this file in the "\DFCD\ARENA2" folder. Just copy the one from this folder, and replace the one in the "DAGGER\ARENA2" folder.

That was exactly what I was going to say! :)
