Resolution Issues

Version- 254b

I changed my resolution on accident to one that did not fit my monitor. (1152x864) Now when I launch the game I see a beautiful black screen.

I didn't like the size of my GUI so I decided to try to look at the resolutions to see what I could find. I accidentally clicked 1152x864 when my monitor can only go up to 1024x768 I then got a black screen. I restarted the game, my computer, and even went as far as to delete all game files and re-download it. I am still getting a lovely black screen. Yes, I have tried to launch it in Windowed and Safe mode.

Steps to Reproduce -
1. Launch the game
2. Get annoyed with GUI size on your tiny monitor
3. Go to resolution, like an idiot click a resolution that your tiny monitor can't handle
4. Rage.

I am a little confused on one thing - when I download the game off of SendOwl, I drag it on my desktop from chrome extract the application, get a new folder, click that folder, and then the working application. After that I can't find ANY (Other) files on my computer that are from RimWorld whatsoever.

Possible solution- Add a GUI size tab <333

If it helps, I am running Windows Vista with max monitor settings at 1024x768.

Feel free to E-Mail me with solutions, until then, Eclipse Colony it is. :P

Delete the game...

Okay, Ty and Ludeon folders are gone from *LocalLow.
Are those the only two folders that need to be deleted?

Semmy

Yes and than unpack the game again and try it...

If it doesn't work let me know.
