i screwed around with the resoloution - Wedge - 04-25-2007

Hi. first i gotta say mad game (well the amount i played before i wrecked it)

I don't know if this has been adressed before but i decided it would be a smart idea to up the resoloution in the display option and that made the screen so big it is out of the window and you can't see the whole game screen.
as a result i can't see the resoloution option and i can't press ok cause for some reason the arrow doesn't go over the ok button.

I tried deleting and reinstalling the game but when i reload it the screen is just the same.

you could locate the config file and edit the values with a text editor. the location of the config file is dependent on the OS you are running vdrift on.

Mac: ~/Library/Preferences/VDrift/VDrift.config
Linux: ~/.vdrift/VDrift.config

don't know where it is on windows.

Ok, lets pretend i know nothing about programing. Haha.
If you tell me the name of the file i could find it. is it "vdrift.config"?

also if you could just tell me what to delete and what to write in i could manage with that.

by the way, nice name.

thanks.

HAHAHA! victory, (on windows) when you edit a game option it stores the edited file (don't know if that's the corect term) in

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\.vdrift

all you have to do is delete that file and it reverts back to the default setting.

I just added this information and the info about OS X to the documentation wiki, here: http://wiki.vdrift.net/index.php/VDrift.config#Location
