I installed this by downloading the .xo file and then I tried changing the graphics mode to OpenGL and now it won't start. I tried removing it and re-installing it, but it still won't start. I think my (poor choice of) settings were not reset when I did that.

Game settings (all activity settings actually) are found in your .sugar/ directory. Just remove the .sugar/default/org.laptop.doom directory to clear saved settings after you remove the activity, and then re-install.

Hint, don't try the OpenGL video mode.william direccion agraciada 2725 --149.126.44.166 13:34, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
