    Default Windowed?

    I finished installing this mod and when i opened the shortcut up comes a batch file then the game appears. Now it seems to be working ok but the problem is that the game is running in a window, and there is no option to make the game full screen in the graphics menu. Is there something I did wrong? or is it supposed to be like this?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Open it up. Goto the very last line. Change:

    windowed = true

    To

    windowed = false

    Save the file.

    I'm also experiencing the same problems, but can't seem to find the file you mentioned. Any ideas where it is?

    p.s. sorry but I'm really bad with this sort of thing

    Open up My Computer, go to Local Disk. Go into programme files and look for M2:TW or whatever you called it. Inside you will find the for_king_or_country.cfg.
    Open it in notepad or something then scroll all the way down and at the bottom is say Windowed? delete "true" and type "false" in its place, then go file and save over the original for_king_or_country.cfg.

    Has anyone had trouble saving the cfg file after editing it? I keep getting a message saying it won't save and to check that the "path and file name are correct." Haven't run into this before...

    I actually did the fix to the cfg file to where this is all it says:

    [features]
    mod = for_king_or_country
    [video]
    widescreen=0
    movies = false
    [game]
    allusers=1


    I still have the problem of only being able to see the top left corner of the screen. Any help would be appreciated.

    I have the same window problem. But, I'm not sure where to find the CFG folder. I'm looking in the Medieval II folder as well as the FKOC folder, but can't seem to locate it. I don't see any file by the name of for_king_or_counry.cfg

    I've got the se problem, but there's a second one: every time I try to change it, my pc gives me the message that there's something wrong and if I try to safe it, I get another message that I can't change it

    Is this just a Vista problem ?

    [game]
