Font Directory Not Found on friends light-saber

A friend asked me to fix his light-saber because I am “good with computers” but I have never worked on one before, nor do I even know what kind of light-saber this is. I connected it to my computer and I see like 20 different folders which are the soundfonts (I think) each named something like 1-SABERTRIO or 18-TYTHONIAN_CYRSTAL. I noticed a presents.ini folder which contained all of the names of the folders so I am assuming this is like a config file?

Anyways when I turn on the lightsaber it glows yellow and seemingly works but I cannot change the soundfont, when I try to it turns black and repeatedly says Font Directory Not Found. I’m not sure where to find more information for diagnostics or anything but any help would be appreciated. I notice on similar threads people are talking about changing the names and the config files and things but I am not really sure what that means in this context. I did notice that the names in the presents file don’t contain the numbers but when I add the numbers it starts saying Font Directory not Found as soon as the lightsaber turns on which makes me even more confused.

Anyways thanks in advance!

That doesn’t look like a proffie config. Maybe CFX?

I’ve been digging around and I can’t find any config file at all. I’m assuming that my friend deleted it? Just to be sure though, what should the file be called?

I believe for cfx, the “config” is a text file like the one you posted in your first post.

I don’t know a lot about other sound board setups like cfx, gh, etc…

I see. I wish I knew what kind of board/saber this was, It would make this a lot easier. Thanks for the help though!

Do you have other in hand? Post a picture of the board, I am sure we could identify it.

Yep! This is the saber:

Well, that sure is a proffie then! You, or him, should contact the vendor to get the real config file. Other wise it will all be guess work.

Understood, thanks for all the help!

That is a preset.ini fike, not a config. You’ll want to reach out to the installer for the config.h file if it’s not available.
