HEAT'S OPTION.CFG FILE EXPLAINED

Post by Reef »

I have finally located the file that has most of the entries in Heat's Options.cfg file explained.
I can't take credit for coming up with the idea, but I have no idea where it came from. Thanks to whomever originally did this. I did fill in alot of the blanks, but there are still a few things I could not get figured out. If anyone has any idea on the blanks, let me know and I can update as necessary.

Enjoy
