Okay. I figured out how to run the game, but the resolution doesnt fit my screen. I have to use Desktop mode as the other starter only brings a black screen that minimizes the program. The desktop mode however doesnt fit my resolution. I can make it work on a smaller windowed mode but would prefer the resolution to fit my screen
Okay. I reinstalled the game, no update, and run the game in desktop mode as the regular .exe only brings a black screen, but the desktop mode resolution doesnt fully fit my screen and I cant properly access the menu. Any suggestions would be very apprecaited!
I installed the game, tried to play it but it was a black screen that crashed, I updated it, and it now says “you must run the game from its install directory”
Any advice?
