When doing a fresh install/mod install or any major changes to the game, and just to keep all my personal settings I always back up the following files:
* conf.ini (game render/joystick/FMB+ settings)
* Users folder (pilot/campaign info etc.)
* i18n (I have modified the ingame messages such as "Beebop has been rescued by the resistance" instead of "Beebop has beed captured")
* rcu file (I have icon scripts, air racing starter scripts etc. stored there)
* Records file (all my .ntrk's and .trk files plus my skinning test missions. Nice for easily getting back favorite QMB missions)
* Quicks folder (for all the custom map QMB missions)
In addition I keep backups of my "MODS/mapmods" folder and my "MODS\STD" folder so I can keep all the maps I have installed and save the .ini files in the "STD" folder, especially those which contain custom trains, vehicle columns and objects. That way I can just move my installed mod folders into the MODS folder and keep all the stuff I worked so hard to get working.
That way I can easily keep the same basic stuff from game to game.
