USER.cfg issues

[SoloFlyer]

I deleted SC and re-downloaded the whole thing onto a SSD when 3.3 whent live. I neglected to save my USER.cfg file so I made a new one, but it doesn't seem to be doing what it's supposed to. Anyone else having issues?

Yeap, same for me, it doesn't do anything anymore since PTU 3.3. Even if I check log files, the user.cfg doesn't seem to be loaded anymore. Before I could see which lines weren't correct, now nothing.

Strange......My user.cfg works just fine.
In fact, as I am testing the new patches I often make some small changes in the user.cfg to check 'things'.
Since 3.3 I am using a bare minimal user.cfg (used to have many OP performance settings) since SC nows uses these 'features' and there is no longer any need for me to set them in the user.cfg

btw - I also use a SSD.

My current user.cfg - used mostly for borderless windowed mode & setting max FPS

There are two user.cfg one have no function and resets every time game starts the other user.cfg is the one you use.

<your hd drive> :\Roberts Space Industries\StarCitizen\LIVE\user.cfg <--- this is the one that is used by the live game.


Here some other useful console commands for importing keybindings and or correcting such.

How to import keybindings:
pp_RebindKeys <filename>

Swap keybindings between Joystick 1 and 2. This command is useful when Windows sets your secondary joystick to your primary and you want ;to easily reuse your keybindings:
pp_resortdevices joystick 1 2

Change device 4 to 1 and 5 to 2?
pp_resortdevices joystick 4 1
pp_resortdevices joystick 5 2

Export bindings to a file named layout_mybindings_exported.xml:
pp_rebindkeys export mybindings

List the detected devices in order:
i_DumpDeviceInformation


CHEERS!

---CIG-PTU Settings
r_displayInfo = 3

usally this the command which tells me everything works fine with my user.cfg

Yea none of my important user.cfg settings are working.
@CosmicTrader do you know what's the LOD setting and if it still works? When I go into 8K for screenshots, in camera mode some lower quality LODs are used within view instead of all high quality LODs even though I have settings to very high.

It also seems typing in console commands directly may still work.

Then the functions you can change in the game option those settings can't be change by user.cfg those you change int option menu of game.
Any other code line for user.cfg seem to work just fine, does for me. then I'm not using that many anymore since most settings can be made in game now.

I only use user.cfg to adjust screen size and r_displayinfo. Nothing works since 3.3, however, redisplay info works from console, not from user.cfg

I was only in briefly for one session of mining so I'm not sure which commands are working and which aren't. the only reason I noticed at all is because I also use r_displayinfo and the info wasn't populating so I ended up using the console. In 3.2 I believe I had been using something pretty close to this so it's what I tried to use now:

Con_Restricted = 0
r_displayinfo = 3
r_MotionBlur = 0
r_VSync = 0

e_GsmCache = 1
r_AntialiasingMode = 0
r_TexturesStreamPoolSize = 256
e_ShadowsPoolSize = 128
e_ShadowsMaxTexRes = 64

@DirectorGunner Just for you.........................

;Default Value: 4 (Low), 6 (Medium) 20 (High), 40 (Very High)
