Fullscreen + Another problem


(Romike) #1

Hello guys,

Few minutes ago I juts bit edited my config and when I was going to try it.

After I execed + vid_restart config I got this 3 errors.


2 warnings with fullscreen - If its fullscreen 1/0 whatever it shows still same error.

And that third / last down error I even dont know what is it.

Can you help me please somehow how to fix it ? :frowning:

Thanks in advance

Normally this means you need to update your grphics drivers, but since you were just editing your config maybe undo the changes? I guess you changed some specific graphic related cvars.

This means the resolution you switched to isn’t supported, try using other resolutions, or a custom resolution like so;

set r_mode “-1”
set r_customWidth “1024”
set r_customHeight “768”

No no, it wasnt about drivers, it allways show up if you have some ****s in cfg. Anyway i tried to reinstall ET, then et opened. But after vid_restart again.
And that resolution what I had before I didnt change and it worked and weird, I tried lower and worked so I am bit confused.

Well looks like its fixed now.

Thank you

The mode ( -1, 1600x1024) should be no problem. You might want to uninstall ET, purge the directory (remove data and .pk3 files, possibly backup you’re favourite maps) and reinstall.

If the problem still persists, it’s not the game. Check your drivers (soft- and hardware) configs and try hard.

Still fails…? give us a full log through pastebin or so, so we can look at completely.

methinks the problem was trying to run 16 bit desktop, W:ET requires 32 bit
