Profile manager from within the game.

#1 Post by Turd Ferguson » 04 Aug 2021 12:38

Pre 1.41 there was a handy feature where you could access your profile manager. I use a VR and a gaming headset too so I used it to add/remove mods without having to take both headsets off.
I can't find the option anymore. Has it been elbowed or is it hidden within another menu now?

Thanks

It’s hidden in the exit button. When you press it a pop up will appear asking if you want to change profiles or exit outright. It caught me by surprise as well.

I remember having to set the g_hmd_no_special_menu cvar to 0, otherwise the only option was quit. I don't know whether I'm misremembering, was confused by the change, whether there's been a fix etc.

That’s odd. I use the regular game menu and not the VR one so it could be different. I haven’t checked.

Just came back to say the option isn't there when quitting in VR however you may have answered my question big_carrot😀. Will give it a go in the morning and report back thanks.

@Wrighty I have VR and it is there. It’s probably not in the Special VR menu but it is in the regular desktop menu of the game. I’ll have to check myself when I can.

I can't see the option. All I have is
Do you want to quit
Yes No

I've tried in the headset, in the desktop menu (when you press F11) and also with the No Special Menu command above. It's the same for ETS and ATS.
Think I may be missing something else. How do you opt for the regular desktop menu @Frayner ?

in the console, you use 'uset g_hmd_no_special_menu 0', then the next time you open the menu, it will use the default desktop layout, and the exit button in the bottom right leads to a second menu where you choose either quit or launchpad.

Will 'uset g_hmd_no_special_menu 1' remove the extra dialog in a normal game setup?
