  • I have found the file config.cfg in order to add some lines of 'code' so I can make videos for youtube.
    {these: http://www.forums.alientrap.local/viewtopi ... 214#p53214}

    Trouble is, when I open config.cfg in notepad.exe, I'm seeing one contiguous line of words with box-type symbols. I expected the config file to be editable line by line, but instead its a jumble of text. Here's what I mean:

    Code: Select all

    Basically, I am not finding it obvious enough to edit the config file, and I have given the forum a decent search.

    thx

  • You could try to use Wordpad instead, I think wordpad understands the linebreak sign better in the text format that the config is in.

    Btw, I find you signature irritating - why would you hope you could like a ninja? I mean, why can't you like a ninja? And why would you want to like a ninja if you can't? It is really irritating... ;o) In case it is a quote, who said it?

  • Good old MS thing. There are several linebreak symbols, and why would MS follow standards here anyway?
    Use a real editor, like Notepad++, and your problem will be solved.

  • thanks for the info, guys. wilco.

    To Halogene; the sig quote I found funny because it leaves out the verb. Maybe it's a 4chan-ish immature trolly kind of meme-seed. In between moments of brilliance, I am pushing for new levels of stupid most of the time ;)
