  • Have you tried making the S1Options.ini file «read-only» after adjusting your in-game options?

    will try that thx!

  • Not too sure what hould means but:

    • Change your in-game options; then
    • Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\TERA\Client\S1Game\Config (or wherever you put Tera);
    • Open properties for S1Options.ini and make it read-only.
    • Click apply and you're done.

    Hope it works for you. A mate got his glyphs and skillbars reset on a couple of chars this week. Very annoying and there's no "fix" for this issue.

  • Sadly it didn’t work, the game option keep start over from default.

  • Since those files are responsible for these options, I would double check if you changed the correct file to read-only. Can you check that file's last modification date? Maybe it gets deleted for some reason.


    You can also change the values manually in Notepad or whatever text program you're using, make a back-up copy of it and replace the file before you start Tera.

    Settings stored locally in S1Options.ini are not really a problem - if the file is marked as read-only, one doesn't even need a back-up. Problem is with UI settings, skillbars and glyph setups - when those reset, you've no way of restoring them but rearranging them again.

  • OP clearly stated his issue is related to the stuff set in s1options.ini, which btw makes no sense to me - that file gets generated with default settings from scratch when he first launches the game (or launches after deleting it).


    Maybe he made it read-only BEFORE making changes in-game? Or messed with the file content manually before and the game can't recognize it properly?


    The glyphs, skillbars, ui settings etc are all stored on Tera servers, and if those reset that's the server's fault (or maybe proxy's ? :) )

    I've had a UI reset a couple of times over the years before I even knew what this proxy thing was, so no, it's not related.
    Also, it was possible to lose your glyphs if switching while mounted on a flying mount.
    As for OP - like I said, settings that are stored locally can't just reset if the file is set to read-only.
