Issues fixed
Black screen upon loading game
- This problem occurs because the game could not catch your PC resolution automatically, the solution is to exit fullscreen upon starting and play in windowed mode.
Workaround[2] |
---|
|
FIX 2 :
1. Go to: C:\Users\YourName\Documents\My Games\SouthPark - The Fractured but Whole 2. Open state.cfg with notepad or notepad++ for your own sanity 3. Edit height and width parameter with LOWER values than your current desktop settings like I did from mine 1366x768 to 1024x600:
fullscreenSettings = { fullscreen = false, height = 600, maximized = false, refresh-rate-denominator = 1205540, refresh-rate-numerator = 72300000, width = 1024, x-pos = 0, y-pos = 0,
4 Save file 5 Right click on the file > Properties > Check "Read Only" and apply 6 Start the game That's all.
Issues unresolved
Black screen after hitting Enter in the main screen
Run in Windows 7 compatibility and as administrator[citation needed] |
