Settings Messed Up, can't see anything.
« on: June 13, 2009, 10:04:58 pm »
Hi there, when changing my settings, I screwed something up pretty badly.
I changed my resolution and went to windowed mode now, when I launch the game.. I can't see anything because it's so big.. and I can't change it to default cause I cant find my way to options. What am I to do? And I've already uninstalled and reinstalled, it hasn't worked.

Find your autogen.cfg and delete it.

Run the game, when it pops up open the console (` or ~) and then type "/r_mode 4" and "/vid_restart" (without the quotes) and it should set the res back to 800x600.

Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

r-mode? Isn't it r_mode?

Yeah, r_mode.  My shift-key is all crappy :(
