Fighting Irish Forums

I had been happily using the FI custom icons for offline play, using the keystroke "ir-enter". I tried shortening the command to "i-enter" in the game's rcu file and it stopped accepting ANY custom icon command! I tried changing it back and installing a backup rcu and modifying it, but nothing's working. Here's what's in the file;
@set fast off
@set echo on
@set alias on
@set history 20

@alias a alias
@a t fps START SHOW
@a a fps STOP
@a h history
@a s show
@f gc.cmd

@a defaulticons mp_dotrange DEFAULT
@a ir mp_dotrange COLOR 0.005 DOT 25 RANGE 0.005 TYPE 2.0 ID 0.005 NAME 2.0
@a if mp_dotrange FRIENDLY TYPE 2 ID .5 RANGE 6 COLOR 3 DOT 10
@a ie mp_dotrange FOE TYPE 1.5 ID .3 RANGE 6 COLOR .005 DOT 10


Any bright ideas? I'd like to get this working again.

...it sounds like "FORMAT C:" time.

Sorry ,m8. I don't have a solution for you.


But here is my rcu file as reference:

@set fast off
@set echo on
@set alias on
@set history 20

@alias a alias
@a h history
@a s show


Not much help, I know.

I keep getting "command not found" when I try to use it.

@set fast off
@set echo on
@set alias on
@set history 20
@alias a alias
@a h history
@a s show
@a on fps START SHOW
@a off fps STOP SHOW
@a default mp_dotrange DEFAULT
@a none mp_dotrange COLOR 0.005 DOT 15 RANGE 0.005 TYPE 0.005 ID 0.005 NAME 0.005
@a fi mp_dotrange FRIENDLY COLOR 0.005 DOT 15 RANGE 0.50 TYPE 2.0 ID 0.005 NAME 1.0
@a ei mp_dotrange FOE COLOR 0.005 DOT 15 RANGE 0.005 TYPE 2.0 ID 0.005 NAME 0.005

Thanks Tact! I'll give it a try.

It works as long as I don't try to change it in any way. Strange.

ha!

NEVER change a running system.


it's true!

That's because it is wise not to change perfection.

That's odd mate. You should be able to change your mp_dotrange setup. I do often with no problems.

TS!

I think I ran down the problem- I was trying to assign "a" as a command to turn off the FPS counter.Apparently this disables other commands. I changed it back to "off" and it now seems to work.
