Hi All,
I'm modifying the "unnamedsoldier.cfg" file which as far as I can see is the only cfg file in the game directory apart from "config.csv".

Neither of them contain the usual quake engine settings?

In the first .cfg file I have these:

// Cvars
//
seta r_lastValidRenderer "RADEON 9550 x86/SSE2"
seta s_milesdriver "Miles Fast 2D Positional Audio"
seta r_forceClampToEdge "1"
seta g_lastsave "training0002"
seta cg_marks_add "1"
//

And when I add the custom height, width, fov extra and run the game, it just overwrites the file with a standard one again?

I haven't really done much of this game hacking stuff, so i'd appreciate any help!

Thanks
Chris

I've looked through the guide, very good, except i don't have newconfig.cfg :cry:

Here are my directories:





Any ideas?

Have you tried searching your whole system for the various cfg files ? ... including hidded and system files.

yep.

I checked the usual places first (my documents etc)

There are config files for MOHPA in there, but not MOHAA.

I did a full scan for *.cfg files and only the unnamedsoldier.cfg and some gamespy arcade stuff came up for MOHAA

In the "main" directory, there is a config.csv file which does contain a load of info about various system specs (old school P2/P3 specs) and there is a heading for "r_mode".

Screenshot below (sorry about the width):

Hi Urban ...

I don't know ... I have not come across a csv file before ... :?

It's really odd though that we both are in the UK and you are not getting the cfg files that I get ... :| ...

I'll re install it and see what I get ... back soon ... 8)

Well ...
I get a "unnamedsoldier.cfg" ... but ... it is different to when I had it installed before ... back in Jun 03, 2004 ... and here is my posts on the Matrox forum with my old cfg file ... http://forum.matrox.com/mga/viewtopic.php?t=10706&highlight=moh

I get a similar cfg to you ... :?

If I change the seta r_mode "9" to -1 and add the other res lines ... as you say it just over writes them ... :?

If I make the file read only I get the game in the top portion of my screen but there is a gap at the bottom ... :?

This is all very strange ... :?

I tried installing the patch here ... http://www.3dgamers.com/games/medalofhonor/downloads/

and ... this allowed me to get the widescreen res and enter the FOV using the console ... :D :D :D

Here are the things I needed to have in my to my unnamedsoldier.cfg ...

seta r_customheight "1200"
seta r_customwidth "1920"
seta r_mode "-1"
seta developer "1"
seta ui_console "1"

Then once the game has started just bring down the console and type in ... fov 100

I got there in the end ... hope you do too ... let me know how you get on ... 8)
