.INI fixing

Posted by AmoebaLord on 06/23/02 - 09:42:17

I accidently switched .INI files with The Alton Inn and FB3, LOT. (The Dink.INI said right on the top, BACK IT UP BEFORE YOU CHANGE IT. I'm feeling really stupid right about now.) It's now unplayable. Is there any way to fix it?

If you can't switch them back, take your favorite saves and move them somewhere else. Then delete the old and down dmod folders and download new ones. Or mabey just download the dmods again to a separate file and replace just the .ini

Better yet, just open original zip of the d-mod and drag the ini over the damaged on.

:-P

The Alton Inn is his own D-Mod! It is not downloadable yet, so don't listen to them, AmoebaLord! :p

If you didn't overwrite the Alton Inn INI, you can just switch them back, but of course you checked that.. :p

Else, you must make a new Dink.ini for Alton Inn. Start with the one from the original game, or from the skeleton. I hope you hadn't added many new graphics yet.. :)/:(

I didn't overwrite it, but I switched them back and now it's 23 MEG, and I can't play it because it's looking for certain things on the map. Hey, does anyone know if INIClean will do the trick?

Uhh.. Is the Dink.INI file 23 MB? In that case, something is really messed up.. :p

Uhh..!? Why did you write it here, then? Well.. The MAP.DAT file will be compressed 99% with WinZip, so don't worry! :)

I'm not so worried about the size, more about the playability, so if I'm correct, getting a new .INI file will fix it?
