Anyone have a solution for this?

It crashes when forced into widescreen.

I tried 1680x1050 and 1440x900.

The highest the game offers is 1600x1200.

Once you manually edit the options.cfg file, it always crashes on initial click startup even if you change it back to 1600x1200.
You have to delete the cfg and start over.

What are you using to edit the file?

YOu may be losing some data if you are using a plain text editor and the file contains additional non-text data. Hence the crashing at 1600x1200.

Notepad.

It appears to be regular text when opened by Notepad.

Try this.

Open up the cfg file when you know it is working and add and then delete a space. When you exit, save.

Let us know if it works or crashes.

If it crashes try the same with Wordpad.

You mean change the numbers, hit space bar after the numbers, then backspace and save?

Change nothing.

Just add a space and delete the space you just added. You are just trying to get the file to overwrite itself with another save.

If you change nothing but still get the crash after the save then you may have identified what is causing the problem.
