Changing Resolution Crash

If you try to change the video resolution from the menu instead of inside the game, it crashes every time.

Hey Brentnor,

But it works if you change the resolution in-game? Weeeeird. Are you running the latest version? (at least v0.33), on Windows I'm assuming?

Try this out if you can:

Create a shortcut to MewnBase.exe (doesn't matter where)
Right click shortcut -> Properties
add "-c --console" to the end of the Target field so that it reads
```
MewnBase.exe -c --console
```
Run the game via the shortcut, it'll open up a little console window behind the main game.
Try changing the resolutions again as you described - if it crashes, it should still print out some errors at the bottom of the console window, paste some of that here if you could.

Thanks!

Hi Cairn4,

I'm not able to follow your instructions since it keeps telling me the Target is not valid.

Hey, to clarify, the Target field in the shortcut properties should be the full path to the exe...

Example: c:\Users\Steve\folders\MewnBase\MewnBase.exe -c --console

My target has the full path, but it has quotes around it. I'm using Windows 7 Home 64 edition.

Any advice how I can get the console to work?

Okay, I pasted the console after the quotes and got it to work. I could not find a way to copy and paste it so I took a snapshot and uploaded it here: http://oi67.tinypic.com/33escn6.jpg

Ah! so close :D

Unfortunately the actual cause is a few lines above that probably (before all the "at ..." lines) - should be a line that says what type of Exception occurred - probably starts with something like "Exception in thread..."

Thanks for your patience with me here, I do really wanna figure out why it's crashing here for you so I can get it fixed.
