hi, my game has always worked fine until today when I changed some of the settings up and switched to opengl. Now every time I try to start my game it gets a fatal error. I know theres some way to reset your game preferences to default without being ingame but I cant find it anywhere, help please.

    it is in %appdata%/Natural Selection 2/system_options.xml

    look for OpenGL and replace with D3D9

    Or you can delete the file entirely and redo ti from the options menu.

    yes, you can reset (or just edit) the configs in the file %appdata%\Natural Selection 2\system_options.xml
    (you can type directly %appdata% in the explorer address bar to go the correct appdata folder)

    you can:
    erase the file to turn back everything to defaults. (graphics settings)
    or
    you can edit the line <device>OpenGL</device> to <device>D3D9</device> (to change to direct3D 9)
