The 'custom' setttings get saved in the .recent.ini

So when you switch to one of the pre-defined profiles it overrights the information in the 'recent.ini' file, so you can't go back.

I'm going to continue working no this and find a way to use multiple custom profiles, or at the very least, come up with some user defined settings that I like better. I'm always having to adjust one up, or the other down. The only way I can get that 'sweet spot' is to do a custom settings, but if you get into a dungeo and need to tweak for performance, than you lose the settings.

As far as you 'custom' settings, those are saved in the .recent.ini file.
So if you back that up into another directory, or make it read only you should be ok.
What I'm thinking of doing is manually changing the .default.ini file to my favorite settings. that way I can switch to super FPS crapy graphics for raids, and then when i'm done, hit the 'DEFAULT' key and it will load my settings.

These are all the commnads in the recent.ini file. As you can see they are mostly related to the display properties.
I am not familiar with XML at all, and just figured this mod out in about 10 hours and started not knowing anything at all. So I would expect someone else could come up with something much more elegant.

Perhaps a slider bar, for certain key settings, or even just a dropdown box instead of the 4 buttons. This was sorta a proff of concept thing.
I think we all want the same thing.
A way to save multiple 'custom' configurations, and be able to change those in game on the fly. GOD WONT THAT BE NICE.

I used this mod for a few hours last night to test it out. It works really well for me. I wish that I could have gotten the 'high quality' profile to work, but it's got that stupid message check that I can't figure out a way past.
Many times last night I switched the profiles in the middle of fights etc. to see if it caused any issues. As far as I can tell there were none.


I've included a check list that I made up yesterday for me to find what settings work for me best custom and that way I'll have them written down.
I suspect though what I will do is wind up with a few different versions of the .recent.ini files and use some sort of batch file to rename and copy the one I want before I get in the game.
Untill I get the 'default' idea working.
