Edit KillingFloor.ini
|
- Close the game.
- Open
<path-to-game>\System\KillingFloor.ini in a text editor such as Notepad++.
- Ctrl+F for
LocalMap=KFIntro.rom. It should be one of the first few lines.
- Change
KFIntro.rom to KF-Menu.rom. The full line should now read LocalMap=KF-Menu.rom.
- This has a side effect of making the main menu look slightly broken. However, it is still entirely functional.
