Topic: [BUG] Not able to start teeworlds

My OS is Ubuntu 9.04 64bit, Nvidia GPU with working nvidia-glx driver, LCD with 1440x900 max res. I've downloaded teeworlds 0.5.1 and after runnig ./teeworlds my screen is blank and shows "Analog out of range". Same goes with teeworlds 0.4.3 installed from ubuntu repository.

Re: [BUG] Not able to start teeworlds

hi Spajderix!!

Your problem has to do with Teeworlds' default resolution. Since it is lower than what your monitor can display, it just rejects showing it. This is what you gotta do:

1) Go to a Terminal and type: sudo nvidia-settings
2) From all sections at the left find the one that says "GPU 0 - (your video card model)"
3) Inside that section click where it says "DFP-0 - (your monitor model)"
4) Now find the option called "Flat Panel Scaling". Below that check/enable "Force Full GPU Scaling"
5) Just right below that click on whatever "GPU Scaling Method" you want. If you leave your mouse hovered over each scaling method, it will show you a description of what each one does. I personally like Aspect Ratio Scaled wink
6) Click Quit
7) Now execute Teeworlds
8) Go to the Settings tab, then select Graphics (to the right)
10) Select 1440x900 24-bit
11) Exit Teeworlds

From now on Teeworlds will execute on the resolution you just selected and your monitor will show anything you throw at it ;P

Hope this works for you man! Good luck!

I had this exact same issue on Ubuntu 8.04 with an Nvidia 5500 using an LCD with 1440 x 900. This is what I did to resolve it:

1. Open up the terminal and create or edit the Teeworlds configuration file:

nano ~/.teeworlds/settings.cfg

2. Add the following line to the file to have the game start in windowed mode:

gfx_fullscreen 0

3. Save the file and launch the game. It should now be viewed in windowed mode where you can go to the settings and change the display settings to your native resolution of 1440 x 900.
