changed to full screen, now can't get in game

Post by fr00g »

Game was working fine in windowed, then I accidently maximized the window and now I cannot get into any server because it crashes when I try to join. I have reinstalled 3 times. How do I go back to windowed mode when I can't access options menu because I can't get into a server?

if you're stuck in a broken fullscreen mode, deleting the file tractor.cfx from your client folder will reset the game to its default windowed mode. (You'll also need to re-enter your username and password.)

THANK YOU, worked like a charm. My computer always seems to have problems no matter what game it is I play.
