MY CAPS LOCK IS STUCK AND I"M OTHERWISE HELPLESS

..Or, instead of being completely useless and looking foolish you could actually offer some help.

You probably set the resolution higher than what you're monitor supports and subsequently OpenGL is failing.  Hit up a search on your computer for a file called autogen.cfg in one of the Tremulous base folders and delete it.  A new one will be created next time you start up Tremulous.

[bakcarvar - the juggalo]

thanks man,ill try it and if it fails ill still be on so look out

[bakcarvar - the juggalo]

ok i did the search but i couldnt find any autogen.cfg but theres an autogen in like every trem folder

[doomagent13]

I'm gonna guess that the type is "cfg".  Open it in a text editor and change r_mode to some lower number.

Personally, I would do:

Code: [Select]

/r_customWidth <larger number of monitor resolution>
/r_customheight <smaller number of monitor resolution>
/r_mode -1Followed by

Code: [Select]

/vid_restartIf you are currently in tremulous.

[bakcarvar - the juggalo]

i cant get into tremulous,i found some autogens in the tremulous folders and deleted them but i still cant launch trem
and i have no idea what u just said doomagent13

[player1]

Just delete it and reinstall. You don't seem able to understand any more complex approaches to the problem. It'll be much quicker, easier and kinder to all involved. Please don't post all caps topics. It makes you seem needy.

@Plague: I generally don't help n00bs who post "OMG I CAN'T GET TREM TO WORK" posts in all caps. If you want to, go right ahead. 1280x300? lol... Gullible non-knowing n00bs...

Check the faq sticky.

[blood2.0]

use windows search(the one with the dog) to find it exclude the .what ever though

i am so noob that i already started a thread with the similar problem. deeply sry.

the error code is same on high-res, but it works in 1280x1024 maximum + reseting my main resolution to the same otside the game. and after quitting trem, it keeps it at this maximum res. driver reinstall fixes it, tremulous running ruins it again.

result: i'd have to reinstall my driver after every game :-S
