Is not working!

April 21, 2012 12:52:51 AM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums

Last night I changed the screen resolution for Galactic Civ 2 Twilight which is the only explanation for what happened when I tried to turn it on this morning. BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH!!! Or at least, it tries to be (still about a third of the screen can see desktop) It is the ultimate edition and I can still play the other 2. Tried uninstalling then installing again but same problem. Running as administrator doesn't help. Any ideas? Dark Avatar is alright but I really like the race-specific techs so much prefer twilight. Please help!!!

There should be an INI file in your My Games\GC2Twilight folder.  Open it in Notepad and set the resolution back to something your monitor can handle.

Do you mean the folder twilight is installed in, or the thing in the start menu which says 'games?' If the former the I can't find the file you mean, if the latter then it's not in that 'games' tab, nor does it now show up in my uninstall/change program tab.

My Documents/My Games/GC2TwilightArnor/Prefs.ini is the file you want.
