    Scourge Video Problem

    Hello,

    I installed "Scourge" RPG game from playdeb. However I reset the resolution and then the game would not open. Meaning, when I tired to start it, The screen goes black and then back to the desktop. I cannot get into the game to change the settings back.

    I tried to remove it from the terminal and re-install it but I am having the same problem.

    can I change the resulution in the terminal?


    Any ideas how to fix this?

    Thank you\

    There must be an option to start the game using custom resolution options scourge --res 1024x768 (for eg.) You will have to check the readme if that is supported. Check the game sites if this can be done..
