Interface cfg doesn't load - Mutual GNU / Linux

#1 Added by Olmo 2 years ago Multilingual

[SEVERE]

More precisely, it doesn't load fully. Parts are where I left them, parts are moved (to default positions?).

File exists, it has proper time stamp, I can even put a backup in there prior to launch ... no joy.

I've logged out gracefully multiple times, bug persists.

This should be fixed with today's patch.

/version command gives "v23.02.10341 #c48622b1f"

Nope.

Started with defaults this morning (before seeing your post), as in moving interface.icfg from /save and starting the client. Did GUI setup. Logged out gracefully. Same result.

Applied patch and started client. Same result.

What's left is to start with defaults now that patch is applied and try again but it will have to wait, one GUI setup per day is all I can stomach.

This is how it should look:

This is exact bug that the patch addressed.

Are you saying that login, move gui, logout, login, broken gui?
I take game starts in correct window size and you do not adjust it after?

I replicated your ui as much as possible using poped out chat channels lined up at the bottom edge of screen, and using 1x ui scale (as you seems to be using). No issues of UI moving.

Yes.

But it happened cross-version, as in config was created in previous version, so that might be an issue. Like I said, I'll try with fresh defaults (no existing .icfg) now that client is patched.

Here's the offending .icfg
interface_olmo.icfg

Well, it looks it was cross-version issue after all.

Logged in Sat and it failed like shown on screenshot. But, I really didn't feel like starting from scratch and just wanted to play. So I copied it to alt, logged her in (it was broken in exact same way), fixed both and played a bit. Noticed how mission journal and exchange window weren't where I like them, fixed those and logged out.

Logged both back in just now and voila, it loaded as it should.

So my guess is that those two changes triggered whole interface to re-write and thus upon save, it was written properly.

In any case, case closed. gg
