Post subject:  Unable to set any graphic mode; cannot set video mode
Can't say I've gotten that error before. I've gotten the similar error that some people get when trying to run windowed, but now it's not running either fullscreen or windowed. Any ideas?

Here's my settings.ini up to the controls section which I suppose is irrelevant:

Code:
Settings
   ResolutionX = 640
   ResolutionY = 480
   TrueColorMode = 1
   PaletteFile = ContentFile
      FilePath = Base.rte/palette.bmp
   Fullscreen = 1
   PostProcessing = 1
   PixelsPerMeter = 20
   PlayIntro = 0
   DeltaTime = 0.0166667
   RealToSimCap = 0.034976
   HSplitScreen = 0
   VSplitScreen = 0
   DefaultActivityType = GABaseDefense
   DefaultActivityName = Test Activity
   MaxUnheldItems = 25
   EnableParticleSettling = 1
   EnableMOSubtraction = 1
   SoundVolume = 100
   MusicVolume = 0
   LastKey = Well wouldn't you like to know?
   P1Scheme = InputScheme

Did you set PlayIntro to 0? I'd set that back to 1, and you can just skip it by pressing the spacebar. Sometimes, I think the PlayIntro thing messes stuff up.

Playintro=0 For some reason actually jumps into Grasslands [At least when I tried it.]

Mines jumps into Physics Test.

Likely explanation being: Data turns it off in order to test game additions faster. On the map that autoloads for me, you can see a rocket, with the new legs, and a crab; the two most complicated recent additions. Makes perfect sense. It also means Data is a tad lazy and doesn't make a specific version for testing; or revert changes he makes for released versions.

But hey, it's kind of cool.

Oh.

Well, I'll turn that back on. Also, my video drivers sometimes screw up. Now that I'm on a fresh boot, it might work. I'll come back with results.

Hmm, nope. I recently messed with the activities.ini in a mod. Not sure what that would do but maybe I did something wrong either way.

Still no dice, build 19 does not work either.
