Custom binds for undected Nico dll using consolite

[gdrthuy]

Hello. First all credit is to Nico, Pie, DewDew hell_demon, l2noob2, Dank and all other coders that worked on "Vindictus project".
Can't find any good and simple step by step guide unfortunately, so made some basic one. Feel free to make better one.
#1 use perx of whatever injector is personal preference ,
#2 have nexon default config.cfg file ready to make read only before loading dlls, it's in C:\Nexon\Vindictus\en-US\cfg folder default for NA
change if custom or other country
#3 set video, audio, mouse, game-pad, keyboard options to Your liking and prepare custom binds by making txt file so You can just paste it
#4 then load dewdew consolite 1.49 and nico 9.0 and start Vindictus
#5 after that use consolite when see message ready to quickly paste Your custom binds commands into console
as fast as possible right after You get to boat screen loaded
#6 after done finish with

host_writeconfig

and make config.cfg read only quick by
Using Windows command prompt as administrator, with default Nexon folder, change path if customized or not NA

attrib +r C:\Nexon\Vindictus\en-US\cfg\config.cfg
or just right click and check it
do it quick and type
quit
in consolite to finish process and close game, must be fast or HS will shutdown consolite
it should show 9kb if done right

#7 if successful copy file to desktop or archive it with Your zip software (7-zip, winrar, etc) for future use if it gets corrupted
#8 have to remove read-only before starting vindictus again
remove config.cfg read-only attribute by
Using Windows command prompt as administrator, with default Nexon folder, change path if customized or not NA

attrib -r C:\Nexon\Vindictus\en-US\cfg\config.cfg
or just right click and uncheck it

#9 once done remove consolite from perx or other injector You use and leave only Nico dll

Also note binds wont work if not loaded Nico dll loaded at same time with consolite.

Good luck.
P.S. If got trouble start game after all steps and make sure Your backup "config.cfg" shows 9kb or more, then go to sign-in screen, close game and replace config.cfg with the backup.
again and it will work. That's just Vinductus automatic detection of hardware,screen resolution or operating system change,
if let's say You download already made binds such as pies-bind-v-2-0-na
or copy file to virtual machine or other computer.

I have no idea what's this for.

I have no idea what's this for.

LOL, then no point trying to explain it further for You only.

It's here for people that use @Nico dll
since consolite is down.
Also one big advantage of Nico dll is it can be used in party , unlike Consolite.
Still consolite is necessary to write config.

I'm doing everything perfectly but cfg is being stubborn and wont change to 9kb

Doesn't necessary need to be 9k, it's my personal experience, also depends on number of commands entered .
Check it just in case to see if it works.


Make sure config.cfg is writable before using
host_writeconfig
command. And after write command make read-only before typing
quit
into console.
After backing it up, make writable again, before game start.

tbh, i really dont know what im gettin for this but i tried this step by step

first, the config.cfg didnt change size from 8kb
secondly, i played, nothing changed, just plain normal vindictus.


I mightve done something wrong on the way or this thing just doesnt works... we need more people to try this.

Sorry

@silverravencrow
The host_writeconfig part is tricky, must be really fast there.
Try few times.
