Desert Storm 1991 Campaign - Working Copy

[DRG]

This is exactly what Game Preferences.ini does now. It stores that info and more based on what your settings were on shutdown the last time and there is nothing in the game code that would cause a campaign to override them . As Andy said the only thing that can override those is a PBEM and this can be easily tested. Change the preferences setting then save a scenario. Reset the preferences to normal then open the scenario and you'll see the reset preference settings and a campaign is just a series of linked scenarios

Everyone plays the game a little differently. There is no one "correct" preferences settings but we recommend setting them at 100% and if anyone finds that doesn't quite work for them then by all means adjust them but what may be the best setting for a newbie won't be the best for an experienced player and that's why if a scenario designer thinks their scenario should have adjustments made to the preferences they need to suggest those recommendations in the initial briefing. That way players know whats been done.

As well......... I'm having a difficult time understanding how on one hand you can say...."It is my opinion, and after many years... playing video games, that a configuration file, a .cfg will cause me or anyone else for that matter, to complain of a game not playing correctly, of being buggy. ".... then go on to make a case for including one..... or am I reading this wrong ?
