You need to have the "opening" of the GameINI. For example:

Code:
# GZLE01 - The Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker

This needs to be at the start of the file. Try that.

Thanks MaJoR

I tried adding the header, but no dice. It is still getting deleted upon closing the properties window unless I write-protect it first. If I do that it works fine even without the header, so that isn't a strict requirement I guess.

Am I the only person getting this issue?

Alright, copy paste the content of the default into the new file, save it, then open it. It should have the defaults inside it but trimmed, and you should be able to edit the local GameINI after that. I've already done this in testing and it should work.

That is false.

Well thank you for telling everyone how to make it work RachelB. >_<

What's the best method to make user GameINIs?

If i knew why it wasn't working, i'd have posted it. I don't. I just know that what you said is wrong.

RE: Testers Wanted - Global User Directory Branch - delroth - 09-16-2013

Because RachelB does not know how to make it work does not mean what you said is right. It's still wrong.

There seems to be a bug that happens only on Windows here... I'll have a look.

RE: Testers Wanted - Global User Directory Branch - RachelB - 09-16-2013

Actually, Tomkun, do you have a line break at the end? That is needed.

Until they can find out why it's not working, the read-only method works fine as a work around and only takes an extra second or two.

Yea yea, I just wish she'd have said that she didn't know a solution. We're looking for answers, so just coming in and saying WRONG without contributing is frustrating. But she eliminated a wrong answer; that helps in it's own way.

I just tested this again, and THAT works. Try it Tomkun.
