Hi Mindweaver.
I came across this thread through a google search of where the config. file was located and discovered this wonderful program. Great work.
However I have a question for you.
Is there is a setting to turn down the opacity/brightness of the player icons and control point icons.Idealy it would only turn down teammate(Blue)ones. Countless times I don't shoot a enemy for fear it is a teammate with all the friendly solder icons floating about the area.
This really annoys me to no end,especially on dark maps.
If there is something manually I can do the information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Omerta/! As of right now I don't know of a way to do that, but it would be a great idea. :toast:

Registered just to say thanks! along with everyone else. Awesome tool man, you rock. And I'm really excited to see that you are planning on messing with key bindings. If you can make this thing bind my scroll wheel to certain actions and not cycle through weapons I'll give you my sister :p

Posting a link on my clan's forums.

Saves to the config file do not seem to take? Trying to enable dx10.

What are you trying to add? If bf3 doesn't recognize the code in the config file it will remove it. It needs to start with "GstAudio.", "GstRender.", "GstInput.", or "GstKeyBinding." or the game will remove the code. :toast:

Does anyone no how to stop the sunlight and dust/smoke on the maps?

The sunlight can be annoying when trying to get lock on air vehicles, but I can't see it being changed anytime soon......

However...those bloody tactical support lights are like a bloomin 1000kw bomb going off on the near horizon....fix it Dice....like yesterday !

Yeah. The flashlights are STUPID. Also, they are not allowed in competition. That says enough. I would love to have a server option to block them from being enabled.

Yea right now the only thing i've seen people do is turn off "Enlighten" and set contrast to 50%. But the default contrast is set to 50% by default. I've changed them all and to me its just a placebo effect.. I don't see any changes in game. The "Enlighten" setting seems to be just like the "Enable Radio" option.. This setting hasn't worked since BF Vietnam.... I do miss the radio in vehicles thou..lol I actually ripped all the music out of Vietnam and put my own music in the game for all my clan mates.. It was funny as hell seeing one of my clan members come over a hill in a huey playing, "Die MF!, Die MF!, Die"..lol :toast:

Think this is more Dice's fault, as I have seen a few posts where people cannot configure keys etc as they would like.
I have just bought a Coolermaster Sentinel Z3RO-G 5600dpi OLED Gaming Mouse, specifically for this game, however, I too cannot bind mouse 4, well technically that's not true...I can bind it to hold breath but anything else....nope. Also button 5, thought I would bind it to gadget 2 (AT mines etc)...I press mouse 5 and it fills the box in with LMB (left mouse button)....so I thought maybe its just a wording glitch and that it will actually work (like when I setup my gaming pad, if I press pad left it calls it pad up ! And its similar for the other pad directions but they actually work as they should...so glitch).....but no, it called it LMB and LMB is what I need to press to get it to work....unbind ftw.
You would think correctly configured controls would be at the forefront of games development.......looks like they spent all their time on the eye candy and forgot fundamentals !

any hint ?

My config file doesn't touch the sound volume level. You can only change the sound system. Check to see if you have selected a system that's not yours, for example if you have a 2 speaker setup and have selected the "5.1/7.1 Surround Sound" setting. Uncheck that setting and ensure that "Enhanced Stereo Mode" is checked. If you have a surround sound system then check the "5.1/7.1 Surround Sound" and change your system to "Home Cinema". :toast:

Whats up, great utility!

I have some suggestions if you dont mind, for the config file editor, if you could add a search function in there, that would be excellent.

The problem I am having is, I have at Thrustmaster Hotas X joystick and everything works good except for assigning the joystick left and right for YAW in planes and helis. When trying to bind joystick left or right, the bind in the game comes up as blank..very frustrating. I can bind yaw to the rotation of the joystick by twisting the handle just fine, but that just sucks when youre used to going left and right.

The other problem is, the button numbers within the config dont appear to correlate with what the actual buttons are (such as through the trustmaster utility where you can test all buttons to see what is displayed)

My hopes were to be able to manually adjust the config file to force in the x axis to be joystick left and right, but I really have no idea..I can find the yaw settings within the config but am clueless as to what to really assign...

anyway thanks again, keep up the good work :)

Log:
  1. Profiles are disabled for now. I'll get them going tomorrow!
  2. If you have Origins up then you may have to click save a few times, but it will save and confirm that it did!

Change Log v1.1
  1. Profiles now work.
  2. Added Controller Vibration.
  3. Now when you disable Anti-aliasing will auto disable "Anti-aliasing Post".

Change Log v1.2
  1. Fixed an issue with "War Tapes", when selected would cause corrupt Sound in game. War Tapes plays correctly now. Big thanks to erixx for the heads up

Change Log v1.3
  1. New 5.1 setting!
  2. Added call outs to settings.
  3. Changed both Profile config and Config File display text to richtext format. Now you can see the settings easier. I plain to turn the Config File Text display into a Real Text Editor, and not just a crappy notepad viewer. This new display will send the return carriage, and not show it.
  4. New screen shots of the General Tab and Config File tab have been added to the OP.

Change Log v1.4
  1. Fixed an issue not being able to save when selecting "Auto" on "Overall Graphics".
  2. Added Vertical Look (Invert Mouse) setting.
  3. Added Mouse sensitivity setting.
  4. New Advanced Tab layout.
  5. Uploaded new Advanced Tab pic.


Change Log v1.5
  1. Removed a change added in v1.1 "Now when you disable Anti-aliasing will auto disable "Anti-aliasing Post"." -Thanks WhiteZero
  2. Added new setting name for "5.1" to "5.1 Surround Sound" on the General Tab.
  3. Added New "Transparent Shadows" setting on the Graphics Tab. This setting is not in the Game Settings.
  4. Added New "Enlighten" setting on the Graphics Tab. This setting is not in the Game Settings.
  5. Added New "Invert Flight" setting on the Advanced Tab.
  6. Added new Link to this thread in the Website Tab
  7. Added More Call outs for settings.
  8. Added a Donate button. Thanks again to the community for wanting this.
  9. Uploaded New pics and added to OP.
  10. New Graphics Tab Layout.

Change Log v1.6
  1. Added "Disable Mouse Sensitivity" for users that are having issues with this setting. I'm still researching this issue, but I can't get the error to show. It saves correctly for me. Sadly I spent most of my day trying to resolve this issue and wasn't able to add the Brightness and Contrast settings. I really want to add Contrast to the Utility, but I don't want to add another slider until more people tell me that the "Mouse Sensitivity" Set works for them. I would greatly appreciate it if users would post if it's working for them. Thanks Gamers!
  2. Removed the Code1 Error message. I tested this today as well to ensure it saved every time, and did not crash. I'm happy to say no crashes!

Change Log v1.7
  1. Changed "5.1 Surround Sound" to "5.1 / 7.1 Surround Sound. - Thanks Sgt.Denzil!
  2. Now "Your Sound System" settings remember your settings when enabling or disabling "5.1 / 7.1 Surround Sound".
  3. Now the "Desired Horizontal FOV" saves your last setting instead of reverting back to "90".
  4. Added the ability to make direct changes in the Config Tab Window.
  5. Added a "Save" button on the Config Tab to save changes made directly in the Config Tab Window.
  6. Added a "Undo" button on the Config Tab to revert back to your previous settings and not just "Reset" back to default.
  7. Changed the Call out on the "Donate" button.
  8. Added what version to the top of the "BF3 Config Utility". - Thanks Druuge Fuel!
  9. Added new Config Tab pic to Screen shot section
