Resolution problem

Mehplep · 05-02-2009, 12:48 AM

So, I guess this is the right forum for this.

I recently installed FF in big excitement over playing this what looks to be an amazing game. After SDK was downloaded I ran the game, it loaded, but I found it in 4:3 ratio, which I don't like in any way. So I changed it to 16:9, and was going to change the resolution to 1045*800 or what it now is, but accidently clicked wrong and got wrong resolution. A resolution which my monitor not can handle. So my monitor gave me an error message saying that it cannot display this, and I go all like "yaaaay!", alt-tab out and restart it. Same thing >.< I check the internet and finds a tutorial how to change the resolution outside the game in the game folders, but it was for another game and I didn't find any map. After ten minutes of map searching I gave up and deicided to re-install the game, since it didn't really take that long. So, I do so, restart steam, boot up the game... AND SAME FUCKING PROBLEM.

Goddammit, someone knowingly of a sollution? >.<

Try deleting the fortressforever folder first then reinstall.

I uninstalled the whole program and checked for any traces of FF-folders, couldn't find any. So I assumed everything was gone, and then reinstalled. Same result...

right click on the game in your steam game list, goto Properties, then Set Launch Options, then put this -width 640 –height 480

or whatever resolution you want.
