[1.1.2] Cannot change video options

[PowerWyrm]

Clicking on "Video options" menu instantly crashes.

Code: Select all

Fixed in git (commit f6cb045).

As a temporary workaround for 1.1.2, move the t-engine window once (so that a window position .cfg file is written to disk) and restart the game. This will probably throw a Lua error for the same reason, but the config write should go through.

If you are stuck in fullscreen mode and this is happening, launch the game in safe mode (pass --safe-mode as a command line argument), move the window, and restart normally.

Sorry, but your solution doesn't work. It does throw the Lua error you mentioned when the config write is supposed to happen, but the config write does not happen.

If you cannot upgrade to 1.1.3 yet, try creating a file called window_pos.cfg in your %HOMEPATH%\T-Engine\4.0\settings directory (or ~/.t-engine/4.0/settings if you are running linux). Then, set the contents to the following:

Code: Select all

window.pos = {x=0, y=0}

Just to be safe, make sure there is a blank line after the window.pos line.
