What are the default .ini settings? I've changed a few and would like to reset.

Just delete or rename settings.ini and start DFU, it'll recreate the ini. You'll have to point it to your Daggerfall install again.

Defaults.ini is used for first-time deployment after a new install or if the live settings.ini is deleted and needs to be recreated. This file is part of internal resources and not used for live game settings. There's no reason to change defaults if using the editor, it's not related to gameplay settings. Please note that restoring your defaults.ini has no effect on your live settings.ini if it already exists.

See here for info on locating your persistent data path where the live settings.ini is stored. If you delete this file, it will be re-created from defaults.ini the next time you run the game.

I also thought OP wanted to know the default values for ini settings to restore them, which is why i provided the list from defaults.ini.

Regardless of the OP's intent, the combined responses provided a quite complete picture regarding the role of both files. So thanks to all.
