I launch the game and its just black although i can hear my mouse going over options. How do i fix this...

-nofbo -Uses old OpenGL renderer, should fix 'black screen' issues most of the time
-console -Enables developer console, not really needed since the console is always-enabled since version
, this is clearly what you need to do if you are having black screen issues..
-Noforemparms -Disables mouse parameters, I think this would be disabling any pointer precision, mouse boost etc. options in mouse...
