Request: Setting up shortcuts to use different settings.cfg

[Timotheus 416]

I saw BHJ had shortcuts which used different settings.cfg for his accounts.

Since I have two accounts as well, I'm interested in how he got it to work.

Anyone knows?

CelAthor wrote an account manager which is totally legit to use ...I am trying to track down the linky for you..

 

Thanks Csaszar for the Linky

Nice work Claire.

Makes me wonder if a list of legal mods like this can be made or found somewhere for us to reference.

The best place to start, from all I've heard, is Sacred Vault. Given your fluent babel translation abilities gogo, this should be a piece of cake for you. One other one that I thought was cool, but I dug up recently and the link was dead, was YellowLab's autohotkey config. I don't suppose you saved a copy of that in your infinite archive of wonderfulness did you Myles?

 

If I hear of any more good sites I'll pass them along

well its realy no big secret (I just didnt want to use any of those manager progs)

 

in the game root dir you make a folder named dual in this folder you make 2 folders named new and old

now you move the settings.cfg for account no 1 into the old folder and the file for account no 2 into the new folder

 

make 2 .bat files and place them in the game root dir

 

this is how the files looks (with your own mode in reg to where the game is installed)

copy /y E:\"Sacred Underworld"\dual\new\settings.cfg E:\"Sacred Underworld"\settings.cfg
sacred.exe
exit

 

copy /y E:\"Sacred Underworld"\dual\old\settings.cfg E:\"Sacred Underworld"\settings.cfg
sacred.exe
exit

 

(now right click on the two .bat files and send to desktop)

Good One Gogo

 

well, there's another simple Way..

The Account Selector by SacredVault. I think they abandoned it, when the Account Manager was released, luckily I still have it

 

 

It's amazing, everything you need is that tiny Executable. It'll detect your Underworld Folder automatically (no matter, where the Executable is) and creates a File called accounts.cfg there.

This File "accounts.cfg" contains Information of your input Accounts. You eighter can add them through the Executable or a simple Editor.

When using an Editor, the Order is:

Account Name

Classic Key (without Spaces or -)

Underworld Key (without Spaces or -)

Next Account Name

etc

etc

 

Just for the Case, there might be Interested, I could take my Ressource Hacker and try to translate it ^^

Multiple Accounts Sorter download linkish thing

 

^ That is the link directly to the download. It was so freaking hard to find..... It seems that a mixture of not knowing German and no straightforward link to the download section makes it really hard to find things. What I finally did was replaced the .net in Csaszar's link with .org and it took me straight to it

*bump*

 

Nice prog, definetly makes things easier!

I just had two separate installs, each with a separate MP account/config file...

Takes up more space, but doesn't require anything else.
