Firstly, I hope I posted this in the right place, more of a question rather than a bug but hopefully someone can give me a quick explanation on how this works exactly.
I have the said autoexec_mapname.cfg files in my /etpro/ folder, within those files I have a few scripts for Spawn Selection, Class Selection etc.. work like a dream!! (Thank you Bani)
However, I also have map specific settings in those files such as picmip settings, brightness, fastsky etc. Now these settings picmip and the brightness settings in particular need a vid_restart to be executed before they take effect.
Are the autoexec_mapname.cfg files executed AFTER the map loads or before it?
That's really my question, I personally would think it would be great for the autoexec files to be executed before the map loads as this would allow for said graphical & rendering settings to be processed in the map loading rather than requiring a vid_restart after the map has loaded.
Obviously if this isn't possible then there isn't much that can be done, or if this already happens then great, but why occasionally do I still have to vid_restart for the settings to take effect?
Thanks guys..

Ahh, fast responses I like.
I guessed that it was done after that is why I was seeing that those settings needed a vid_restart.. not a problem to be honest.
Thanks bani.
