Title: Some Graphic Problems
Post by: AnvilThin on April 29, 2009, 04:49:49 PM
Well when I downloaded OA the game looked very glitchy? (lack of term) so I tried to fix it by changing some of the settings and can't exactly remembered what i clicked but i changed it to "High" and now all i see when i open OA is a little error message floting around on my computer that says

"Can not display this video mode, Change computer display input to 1280x1024@60Hz."

Are there any specific ways i am supposed to do this (I already have thoes settings when i right click, proporties, settings. Or are there anyways to get the settings back to normal without opening the game?

Thanks for your help.

To change resolution without starting the game: (DO NOT LINK) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/FAQ#How_to_change_the_video_resolution_to_widescreen_1680x1050.2C_1280x800_or_anything_else_.3F

You will need:

seta r_customwidth "1280"
seta r_mode "-1"
