I can't play UnFreeze anymore

[NoobKilla]

All other versions of the game work, but after I updated nvidia driver, I'm unable to play your version, even community version works. Here's the log:

well if the community version of the package works then I guess that's good. it appears to be some graphic issue like bad resolution or something else, just to be safe and rule out a config problem move away your ufconfig-2305.cfg file and try again (i.e. reset the game).

[NoobKilla]

That solved the problem, but I had to enter everything all over again, reconfigure all the keys, etc. Thanks!

[adminless]

not really, that just tells you that indeed the problem is on some setting in your cfg so may be try editing your old cfg and changing that r_mode 15 (1440x900) back to the default r_mode 10 (1280x720) and see if that works then.

[NoobKilla]

I deleted old config LOL.

[adminless]

I explicitly said just to "move away your ufconfig-2305.cfg" (or rename it but not to delete it) for a reason. anyways I guess it shouldn't take much to get back.

I deleted old config LOL.

@Adminless
Yes, but when I saw it's working and I already set all the keys and options there was no need to keep old config so I deleted it. And then after I did that I came here and replied and then you told me what to do next, but the config files were deleted, so I had to tell you about it. Next time I won't be deleting, lesson learned. But, you're right it's video resolution, after updating driver, I didn't play the game immediately, but moved to larger monitor, however that monitor is not 16:10, but 16:9 and it doesn't support 1400x900 resolution. Still, it seems all other clients, I have 3-4 of them, community, quad damage release, 64 bit, 32 bit, and they all worked without issues, adapting, starting in a resolution that is closest, automatically changing resolution.

@PacMan
Wiseass as always. I can't wait to frag your ass, like I did hundreds of times before. No PacMan, No STD. I hope we won't be in the same team this afternoon / night.

[adminless]

obviously if you already had updated and configured the new cfg there was no need to keep the old. I can't tell for other files but at least I can tell you the community edition just support virtually any resolution by scaling it in software to the desktop resolution which is suboptimal. the legacy/classic version fails just because it doesn't do any scaling of its own so if the driver or the monitor themselves don't support such resolution/settings in hardware it fails which from a technical standpoint is correct/optimal behavior (i.e. you should run the game at a resolution which is natively supported by your monitor/graphic card/system combination, which doesn't have to be the max, for best performance/results instead of a random one).

[NoobKilla]

Thanks again Adminless, for all the help!

@PacMan
I forgot to tell you that I'm sick with fever, will try to sleep a little bit and prepare for the action, but just in case I'm not up to speed later on I'm letting you know so you don't think I chickened out. Be ready I'm coming for you bro!
