Graphics Settings Retention

Hey there,

I was wondering if there was a way to stop my Graphic Setting and Key Mapping from reverting every time I log-in/boot-up LOTRO?

Thanks for your time,

James

Can anyone help me?

This might relate to your other question about not being able to find your "Documents" folder.

If you are running under OSX, and do not have one.... that is your problem. You have a basic OSX installation issue.

In the Documents folder is the folder ... "The Lord of the Rings Online" in that folder is where all of your "stuff" related to LOTRO winds up... plugins, screenshots, AND... the two files:
"lotro.keymap" and "UserPreferences.ini"

Most, but not all, of the in-game settings are saved there. One setting which will NOT save is using the equilivant of the "Numlock" key -- depending on your keyboard, it might be called "clear" -- In any event, you can set that to lock-forward run" the same as the default "num-lock" key on a Windows system, but that change will not "stick". I have no idea why. I've tried various things to solve it, but not found a solution. All other keymap changes stick (at least for me).

However, NONE of those changes will stick without the "lotro.keymap" file.

Graphics settings are similar. Most of them should stick. They apparently don't have a 1-1 mapping with parameters in the UserPreferences.ini file, but I don't have any issue with them sticking.
