I bought reforged a few days ago and after going back and forth with technical support I have been sent here. When I install the game and load it up it goes straight to a black screen with no sound or mouse icon.
Below are my computer specs which I believe are good enough to run this game.
My laptop specs are:
operating system: Windows 11
Graphics card: NVIDA GEFORCE RTX 3050 TI
CPU: inter core i5 - 11400H
RAM: 32GB
I have tried:
- re-installing the game
- Checking for issues within the game
- Removing my AVG
- Updating all my drivers
Does anyone have any recommendation?
I had this problem maybe a year ago. Took me a lot of time to figure out on my own.
I don’t remember all the steps I took to fix this, however, I needed to meddle with the config files of the game.
I believe I had to go to:
c:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\Warcraft III\
War3Preferences.txt
I do not remember which fields I had to fiddle with.
Try setting:
seenintromovie=1
[Video]
adapter=0
antialiasing=1
backgroundmaxfps=10
colordepth=32
foliagequality=0
gamma=30
lightingquality=2
maxfps=200
particles=2
previouswindowmode=0
refreshrate=60
resetdefaults=0
resheight=2160
reswidth=3840
shadowquality=3
spellfilter=2
texquality=2
vsync=0
windowheight=780
windowmode=2
windowwidth=1440
windowx=240
windowy=130
I remember I fiddled around with this, then I got another bug where all I could see was the lion gate login screen without any interactivity whatsoever, which I believe I solved with further fiddling?
