Spawning as Knuckles on map test?

[Fawfulfan]

Back in version 2.0, I had no problem starting as Knux by default...I just put "skin knuckles" in autoexec.cfg. But in 2.1, I did the exact same thing and it didn't work...I'm still loading levels as Sonic. Has something changed, or am I just forgetting how to do it right?

It works normally for me. Are you sure you didn't make a typo in the command or file name?

No, I'm using the exact same autoexec I used in 2.0.

How are you loading your test map? If you're running it through a batch file or from a map editor, you should probably be adding "+skin knuckles" to the command line rather than messing with autoexec.cfg.

Thanks! That worked.
