Tenderfoot Thahd dugatom Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hi everyone, A new gamer here, loving GF1-3, and about to buy AV1-3. Been trying out the demos of each Spiderweb game to check how they perform on my little Asus EEE netbook, and the answer is pretty good. Then however I made a TERRIBLE MISTAKE with Av6, which seems unfixable. Help! For GF5 and GF4, I used the same tactic: install with the screen in 1024*780 compatability mode, select that mode in the config setup on first run, then I even if I boot in 1024*600, it reverts to 1024*780 to actually run. Super! However, with AV6 I booted in 1024*600, so it gave me no options for resolution. Then, stupidly, I checked 'always run this mode' (I misunderstood it to mean always run the setup utility prior to the game running). The game crashes, either black-screening in 1024*780, or 'NO SCREEN SIZE SET' in 1024*600. Repeated uninstalls and reinstalls will not bring be back to the config menu, that would allow me to re setup AV6. Do I have to delete a reg key? Or find an ini file? Any ideas? It will be several years before I hit AV6, of course, but I just want to see how fast it runs etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Øther Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I know that if you managed to get to main menu in the game you would be able to change the options. Try right clicking/Control clicking on the A6 aplication and looking through the options that come up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Find the game's preferences file and delete it. (It's called Avernum6Settings and in with the saved game files, Dikiyoba hopes.) That should fix the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realise that Av6 and Geneforge saved games in MyDocuments, so once I looked in there and found settings then this was easy. Many thanks!
