Hello

Turned the res up to 2048 on Return to Castle Wolfenstein and the game has stopped loading with this error message page. Its only effecting this game and i cannot get back in to lower the res. Also tried uninstalling and then re-installing:o Any idea? The main error is "could not load OpenGL subsystem"

Uninstalling and reinstalling won't necessarily remove the config files. Did you try uninstalling and then deleting the folder that it was stored in ?
 
Uploaded my config here, if that doesn't work, it goes in the 'C:\Program Files\Return to Castle Wolfenstein - Platinum Edition\Main' directory. :)

Edit - Good to know! :cool:

Just edit the r_mode setting in the config file, it's set to mode 10 (2048x1536), turn it down to mode 3 or something.
