another problem running uqm
« on: May 05, 2004, 03:26:20 am »
I've installed 0.3 version (winXP) and when I tried to play the game I got a message:

"The control scheme for UQM has changed since you last updated keys.cfg ( I'm using control scheme version 1, while your config file apears to be for version 0.)

Renaming keys.cfg to keys.old and retrying.
Error: Something went wrong and we are looping agin and again so aborting.  Possible cause is your content dir not being up-to-date."

This speaks for it self ..... but .... there was no keys.cfg in Aplication data/uqm directory. I've red some posts on ths forum so I renamed starcon.txt and starcon.key to keys.cfg and none of it worked

How did you install it? Online using the installer? Note that you're not supposed to unpack the .zip files.
Do you have an old uqm version installed that may be conflicting?

I had a previous version (0.1) installed ..... I thougt 0.3 setup was just an update so I installed it to a same directory as the 0.1 version ..... that might caused the problem. I used an 0.3 setup (900kb) and a full online installation

Yeah, make SURE to uninstall 0.1 before 0.3. I made the same mistake and it will fix the bug that you are having. (It did for me)
