You are doing something wrong then, the grapple is working fine. Maybe the config file is not written right (btw, its Grapple->Offhand = 1; instead of Offhand Grapple: 1) or you are trying to load an 1.03 config.

I started from scratch with a clean (2.0a) Excessive1.cfg. Only added "Offhand Grapple: 1". Nothing.....
Changed it to " Grapple-Offhand = 1". Nothing.....

Added my most used variables & weapons. If I change some weapon settings, they wont change either.....

Are you saying that in 1.03 the syntax is "Offhand Grapple: 1"and in version 2.0a there is a new syntax "Grapple-Offhand = 1" i.e. variable: nnn does''nt work anymore ???

Its obvious that I made a mistake somewhere, but this one beats me for the moment.....

Compare "Grapple-Offhand = 1" to "Grapple->Offhand = 1" do you see the difference? :roll:

Sure, my mistake.....still does'nt work

lowlander, you should use semicolon symbol ( ; ) like this:

Grapple->Offhand = 1;

it's a part of new php-like syntax used in xp2.0a configuration system, and it can't be just omitted. you should end all operators with that symbol.

UPD: anyway, in case of some problems you can look at the server's console: e+ puts error messages there if they occure on config load, including those ones caused by incorrect syntax used in config.

cheers

Funny thing is : excessive1.cfg seems NOT suitable for the grapple.
The server console is clean, no errors at all !

Renaming excessive1.cfg to testv2.cfg immediatly gives errors in the server console. Renaming it back to excessive1.cfg clears the errors in the server console....WEIRD.

I took a converted config (Beast did this for another bloody Dutchmen....), added the grapple and BINGO the grapple was (re)born .......
For the time being this config will be the base for my modifications.....

Thank you all, for the help & suggestions.

excessive1.cfg is a pure configuration, because it is included on the mod pk3, so even if you edit it it will load the right one.

Yep, I saw it in the .pk3 file.

Will there be a manual or translation guide for the new style var's, like in the 1.03 docs folder - config.html ???

Seems there are less var's to tune the grapple / rail / bfg.

Thanks again....
