Title: Mac OSX and 1600x1200 resolution
Post by: sonicbenj on May 16, 2007, 12:11:51 am

Hi guys,

Firstly, it's amazing to be playing UFO on my Mac, brilliant!

Just a little hitch though. All was going well untill I decided to try and use a screen rez of 1600x1200 on my macbook pro 17". Now the game bombed and will now not boot.

Seems that the problem lies with ref_sdl.dylib which I have deleted and will re-install (once the .dmg has finished downloading). I'm hopefull this will fix it?

Full error text below.

Cheers

Ben

right, well i've tried all the fixes on here and nothing is working. it seems to still want to boot at 1600x1200 which i think is causing the problem. i am guessing this is in a saved pref somewhere but i'll be darned if i can find it.

any help would be awesome.

cheers

in your Home Directory, there is a hidden folder with the name .ufoai. Inside of this folder you find a file named config.cfg. Delete this file and your resolution Problems should be fixed.

if you don't want to lose all your settings you can also start ufo with

Code: [Select]

./ufo +set gl_mode 6

glmode 6 is 1024x768
