where is the config file
any one know where the config file is?
im stuck in 2560x1080 resolution set, and wanted to play in windowed mode with 1920x1080, but it wont resize off that resolution set and using the corners to drag the screen size keeps the resolutions linked so they dont resize the WxH independently.

the main issue to this is if i was to try and stream this my screen output is 1920x1080 so id have to cut off a large part of the edges or have major black bars on top/bottom.

i dont quite get why i need to force a resolution onto it, but i figured the config file (wherever its hidden) would be easier fix then trying to trick the client

Also, you may want to use the ingame console to set res for a window, the game is a bit weird when it comes to setting and keeping the res.

then as soon as you launch teh game, launch UUU select teh game exe and activate, to add the console to the game, then you can you a few commands such as:
r.setRes 1920x1080

ok wow i see what you mean with it not wanting to keep the res lol, thats going to be a pain, ill have to look at that console unlocker and just reset it by hand any time it trys to be a butt and change back

make sure when you use the console unlocker, you apply it asap, like even before the game menu loads, or the hook might not work.
