Title: How can I uninstall OpenArena completely? Post by: Mr. Grey on July 16, 2010, 04:21:30 AM I have Windows Vista and i want to remove OpenArena. Where are all the files of OA? Is it sufficient to delete all folders? And what is with the modifications like Defrag?
Title: Re: How can I uninstall OpenArena completely? Post by: Gig on July 16, 2010, 04:41:13 AM I think you have to remove (1) the installation folder (it depends from where you unzipped the downloaded files, for example c:\OpenArena 0.8.1, or c:\program files\OpenArena, or maybe on your desktop...), and (2) the configuration/autodownload data folder, that -unless you specified a different one- is %appdata&\OpenArena... under Vista it should be C:\Users\username\Appdata\Roaming\OpenArena (see also DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/FAQ#Where_are_the_configuration_files_saved.3F]here (http://([b)). Mods are inside subfolders of those folders.
I don't know if there are more files or settings around. I just take a quick look the the Windows Registry (regedit) of WinXP, and there OpenArena seems to appear simply in the "history" of programs like the zip manager and recently used files...

Just get rid of any shortcuts you made, the install directory and the config directory.
But why'd you wanna uninstall it :'( Title: Re: How can I uninstall OpenArena completely? Post by: Mr. Grey on July 18, 2010, 05:04:10 AM Thanks for your help.

Post by: fromhell on July 20, 2010, 09:28:24 AM if it says 'opengl subsystem not found' you probably either don't have accelleration, or you do but sdl is stupid (i like to bet on the latter for killing off voodoo2 support and screwing up mouse input while sdl fanboys go in a war against my view like i'm an idiot who is making this stuff up)
