cl_ui_skinname LAFFSV8
cl_ui_subdir UI/
cl_letter_box_amount 0.110000
letterbox_frame_visible false

everytime i start up the autoupdate, it overwrites eq2.ini and replaces it with something like this:

cl_ui_skinname EQ2MAPS

i want to autoupdate the maps within my laffs ui, not overwrite the ini file each time. i've been able to hack this by making the file read only. this causes and initial error that you can skip past and then get it to update. i'm imaging there is still a way to do auto map updating with a custom ui.
th reason its changing it is because you are setting it to a folder that doesnt exist. try using a skinname for a folder that exists. you can use LAFFSV8 as the skinname if you want, but LAFFSV8 has to exist in order to use it.
