eq2.ini file not being read

[gizzardgulper]

Hi, i'm having trouble with eq2maps, i got it to run once, but only once.

i have everything set up correctly directory wise, and the file is named eq2.ini, not eq2.ini.txt (file extensions are not hidden on my cpu). still it did not work. i tried putting the cl_ui commands from eq2.ini to eq2_default.ini and eq2_recent.ini out of desperation, and somehow eq2maps worked last night. but today when i logged onto eq2 for a moment, those added lines were gone from those files and eq2maps no longer worked.

even more bizarre, when i tried putting the lines back in the ini files again, it doesn't work anymore. so i cannot duplicate the success i had last night.

another symptom: i also do not see the folders i added to the UI folder when i type /loadui in the console. I see the default folder, but not the others.

any ideas whats going on?
