Ini file: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 14:47, 23 October 2022

The ini file is where a user's Zandronum configuration is stored. It is loaded when the game starts, and saved when it exits.

The ini file can be easily found by executing whereisini command in the console. This will print out the full path to the ini file in use.

Windows: Zandronum-<username>.ini in the same directory as zandronum.exe
- As of 3.1, the default installation directory for Zandronum is %LOCALAPPDATA%\Zandronum.
- 3.0 and earlier installed Zandronum to Program Files by default. However, the ini file is likely to be in %LocalAppData%\VirtualStore instead, due to a Windows backwards compatibility measure.
Linux: $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/zandronum/zandronum.ini (usually ~/.config/zandronum/zandronum.ini)
