Option or default not to overwrite user's HLAE config #886

Open ChetdeJong opened 1 week ago

ChetdeJong commented 1 week ago

What problem is this solving

Probably not everyone is happy with having CSDM overwrite their HLAE config.

Proposed solution

I added -noConfig parameter to HLAE interfaces a while ago, that solves this issue. https://github.com/advancedfx/advancedfx/releases/tag/v2.163.0

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

It seems redundant with the current option to define the "movie making config parent folder" (-mmcfg) no?

ChetdeJong commented 5 days ago

I meant the HLAE config itself, not moviemaking.

To see what I mean open HLAE, then go into tools > developer > custom loader. Remember the parameters, close HLAE.

Then run CS2 with CSDM e.g. open some demo, close CS2 and check these parameters in HLAE again. Whatever was there was overwritten by CSDM

I see, that's the HLAE launcher config, I think I will pass the -noConfig by default. Thanks
