    Description:
    Binding.txt file does not exist to launcher/client.exe. Bindings/hotkeys are default and even if attempted to change in game will revert to default upon entering character screen.
    I watched my documents RoM folder to watch the savevariables and bindings update but only savevariables and a banner file updated, the bindings.txt file did not update on client close.
    Things I've tried-
    Deleting client/launcher.exe redownload
    Deleting interface.fdb and redownload
    Nocheckversion launch
    Reinstalling entire game
    Deleting documents RoM folder
    using server save and inputing new binds

    Was going to post this as a legitimate support ticket last night but I decided to take a break and check tomorrow. When I logged on today- everything is back to normal... idk what happened but it's ok now haha
    Thought I would just share this odd experience.

  • a week later it just broke itself again...
    In the morning it was fine, afternoon back to square one of default keybinds and unable to save new ones.

    I didn't do a single thing to client or gameforge client I have no clue how this could be happening

  • wow I feel dumb, after a couple more ideas found out it's Avast causing this specific issue somehow.


    Anyone else with the same problem just update/add firewall exceptions or just do the disable shields for 5mins when launching game

  • It isn't just Avast. It was AVG for me. Another guild member had to disable all of his anti-virus to get past it.
