Display setttings problem

Postby Dokuxe » Mon Mar 04, 2013 1:46 am

Hey guys,

I think i know what my problem is but i'm not sure how to fix it. Basically everytime i startup salem i login and i see all the HUD come up and everything but the graphics don't load and my display driver crashes. i think i enabled shadows and it won't work but now i can't get into the game to switch it out. Is there another way to fix this or is this another problem i'm not aware of? The game worked fine before i switched things. I tried re-installing but it seems to have kept the settings.

If you think you enabled shadows, then there's a good chance that is what the problem is. There isn't a solid solution yet, but you can see the workaround in Bugs & Tehcnicalities: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4557

Specifically, you'll need to get one of the third party clients for now. (Currently, only Ender's client is kept up-to-date.)

Only works in my client. Default one saves options inside java storage.
