Profile Config Tools

Project: Consolation includes a few helper commands for working with the game's new profile config files.

These are mainly useful for debugging, recovery, and converting the stock encrypted profile config into the custom plaintext Project: Consolation config workflow.

Commands

profile_show_config_path

Prints the currently active runtime config path.

This is useful when you want to know exactly which file the game is loading or saving.

profile_decrypt_config

Reads the stock profile config when possible and writes a plaintext decrypted copy.

This is useful if you want to inspect the old config contents without editing the original encrypted profile file directly.

profile_convert_config

Converts the active profile config into the custom consolation_mp.cfg workflow.

This is the main migration-style command for moving into Project: Consolation's custom runtime config.

profile_dedupe_config

Cleans up duplicate dvar assignments in the custom runtime config.

This is helpful if repeated saves or manual edits have left the file noisy or inconsistent.

Notes

  • These commands are mostly for advanced users, testing, and troubleshooting.
  • The custom runtime config currently lives in the shared players config area at %AppData%/Activision/Quantum of Solace/players rather than inside a profile-specific folder.
  • Project: Consolation primarily works with consolation_mp.cfg in that shared players folder.
  • Runtime-only values that should not persist between launches may be stripped during cleanup to avoid bad startup state.
  • Some commands may be duplicated with case insensitivity, this is being worked on to fix it.
