However, after attempting to restore my binds multiple times, I've realized that the location of "C:\My Documents\My Games\Tribes Ascend\TribesGame\Config" is not where the current, up-to-date .ini file of binds are kept. I recognize that only some files are kept up to date in that folder with the game (Checking "Date modified" confirms this). I would like to know where the new location of the up-to-date TribesInput.ini file is so I can easily restore my binds. If anyone has any ideas or tips on finding the location for the up-to-date file, you are more than welcome to state them.
