Level Editor Resolution Mistake

Thanks to JenniferOrange, I fixed it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was changing my screen resolution of the LevelEditor and accidentally forgot to change the 0 while looking for a list of screen resolutions. And closed out the Editor without thinking...

Now it's stuck as a sliver and I have to open the task manager to close it. Can someone tell me where the options file is so I can fix it manually? If there is one.

Thanks.

RE: Level Editor Resolution Mistake

Try reinstalling the level editor?

Already replaced the .exe and .pdb of someone else's. It's still a sliver, so I assume it's an option/configuration file.

RE: Level Editor Resolution Mistake

I'm not really sure who makes the Amnesia Editors, because they never get updated by FrictionalGames. But shame on them to allow you to do something like that though, it should come up with a warning saying the value is to small.

Can FrictionalGames update their own Editors & Scripting functions? Theirs some of either broken or partially broken.

RE: Level Editor Resolution Mistake

Is my only option to re-download the editors?

I'll re-install the editors. If it fixes it, I'll leave this thread as solved.

Nope... Deleted all of the editors, files, and folders in the editor suite kit. Then pasted the ones from the wiki in the root folder again. Still a sliver...

I'll keep looking. But I'd appreciate if someone could give me an answer =\

Thanks, I appreciate it. I tried what you said before you sneakily edited it and the computer screen changed, but the editor was still a sliver =\

The problem is that with it being as thin as it is, the only thing I can click on is the tools and "File". and of course, the resolution is in "Edit".

I KNOW I remember someone talked about it a long time ago, I just can't find the thread that talked about it..
If you right click on LevelEditor.exe, click Restore Previous Versions and see what happens.

Still a sliver, and the date was in April 17... Gah... I appreciate the help JO. Hopefully this is easier than I think.

RE: Level Editor Resolution Mistake

I FOUND IT.
Go into your Documents>HPL2>LevelEditor.cfg
Put this between the ""s for Screen Width: 1024.00000000000000000000
Put this between the ""s for Height: 700.00006103515625000000
Save it and re-open it, it should be fine! (That's what my resolution is anyway, so you can change it.)
:]
