Note: This tweaker is only for the MP part of the game!!!
Note: You'll need the .net Framework 3.5 (maybe 2.0 is enough) to run this application! Every config (configuration) file (<whatever>.cfg) stores Wolfenstein's settings. If you set something in the menus, it'll be saved into a config file, so the game can read it, and apply it at it's next start (so it won't forget your settings).
But usually there are more settings than you can find in the game menus. To modify these settings, you must edit the configuration files manually, which is not so easy, because you won't know what setting what does.
Fortunately, I collected the most useful settings in this tweaker which can save your settings into config files.

What is a config file?
##############################
Every config (configuration) file (.cfg) stores Wolfenstein's settings. If you set something in the menus, it'll be saved into a config file, so the game can read it, and apply it at it's next start (so it won't forget your settings).
But usually there are more settings than you can find in the game menus. To modify these settings, you must edit the configuration files manually, which is not so easy, because you won't know what setting what does.
Fortunately, I collected the most useful settings in this tweaker which can save your settings into config files.
Notes:
-Wolfenstein can load config file from the Wolfenstein Base directory (doom3 install path\base\, an example: C:\Program Files\Wolfenstein\base\)
-To execute a config file, you must type the following into the developer console (myconfig is the name of your configfile): exec myconfig.cfg
(you can bring down the developer console by pressing Ctrl + Alt + ~ or Ctrl + Alt + 0 in the game or in the game menu.
-Wolfenstein will execute the autoexec.cfg named config file at every startup (naturally if it exists).
-The configuration files are stored in the following folder:!!!!
################################
How to create a config file:
##############################
1. Launch the Wolfenstein Tweaker
2. Import a config file or Tweak the settings manually (you can read detailed descriptions, and see pictures about the settings by clicking on the '?' button).
3. Click on the "Save config file" button.
4. Click on the 'Automatic' path finding option. The Wolfenstein Tweaker will try to find automaticly (actually it'll ask for your in-game login name) the necessary folder, where the autoexec.cfg should be saved. A message will appear that the saving was succesfull. Launch Wolfenstein MP, and enjoy the new settings!
4a. If the automatic path finding fails, you can try to find the path manually. Click on the 'Browse (manual)' button and find the base directory of the config files:
Path1: (My) documents\id Software\WolfMP\base
Path2: (My) documents\id Software\WolfMP\sdnet\\base
4b. If you saved your config file with "Autoexec.cfg" name (default), just Run Wolfenstein MP, and enjoy your new settings!
4c. if you changed the name of the config file (for example myconfig.cfg), run Wolfenstein MP, and type in the console: exec myconfig.cfg
(you can bring down the developer console by pressing Ctrl + Alt + ~ or Ctrl + Alt + 0 in the game or in the game menu.
Note: If you followed 4b, you should enter the console the following: vid_restart (this will apply the resolution, display refresh rate, and fullscreen/windowed settings).
To apply sound related settings enter the console the following: s_restart
To apply the texture settings, you must restart the game after 4b.
