I messed up my video option - HELP
I set the video to windowed and now I cannot play.
How do I reset Caesar 3 to the settings it had when I first installed it?
I cannot see how to get to the options screen to change back.
Thanks for any help.

go to properties of the game on steam -> local files -> browse and there youll find the games.exe (executable). replace that with the one you downloaded

well since the zip fles are not the same name i took your 1920 format size and called it launcher.exe that way rewriting over the C3 original one, but when i launch it it gives me a smack.dll error... oh well, JUST KEEP AWAY FROM WINDOWED OPTION

Find C3.exe and run it in 16bit colour mode under compatibility options

Screen settings saved in C3.INF
But they are presented in binary form, you can’t edit them in a regular notepad.

If you can delete (or rename) the C3.inf file, then the game should re-create this file with default settings the next time you start it.

This kit contains mini-programs that change .INF bypassing the game.
"Resolution Switcher EXEs"
"Windowed mode On or Off EXEs"
