    Hello Fighters,

    If you are still unable to play the game due to a resolution-related issue, such as the game launching to a black screen, crashing, or being unable to change the resolution from the in-game options, please try the steps below.

    1. Reset the Game Resolution Manually
    You may try resetting the game’s resolution setting manually through the Windows Registry.

    Please follow these steps carefully:

    1. Press Windows Key + R on your keyboard.
    2. Type regedit and press Enter.
    3. Go to the following path:
    Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Nimonix\RumbleFighter

    1. Inside the RumbleFighter folder, look for the following values:
    Resolution
    ScreenRes

    1. Change both Resolution and ScreenRes values to 1.
    Setting both of these values to 1 should allow the game to start in 1024x768 resolution.

    After making the changes, please launch the game again and check whether the issue has been resolved.

    2. Launch the Game in Windowed Mode
    This issue may also be related to compatibility with an integrated graphics card.

    As an additional step, please try changing the following value:

    Windowed

    Change Windowed to 1.

    This should force the game to launch in windowed mode.

    After changing the value, please launch the game again and let us know if the issue continues.

    Important Note
    Please make sure to only change the values mentioned above. Incorrect changes in the Windows Registry may affect your system or game settings.

    Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

    Rumble Fighter Team

    It is also worth nothing that You should change these values only after you've exited the rumble fighter client.

    If you make these changes in regedit, then you exit rumble fighter by clicking "Exit" button -> "yes", it will overwrite the values you've written onto regedit

    Could you please try launching the game client again, then go to the in-game Options menu and uncheck Window Mode?

    After doing that, please let us know what happens when you try to apply the setting and restart the game.

    So the issue is, you want to play the game in full screen mode, but when you uncheck the window mode and press apply in game, your client freezes?

    Have you tried unchecking this button and pressing apply after relogging?

    The alternative way to force your game into full screen mode is following "2. Launch the Game in Windowed Mode" of the original post, but making the value 0 instead of 1

    -----------------

    Beware that making it full screen may cause some issues. I just tried launching the game in full screen now, and seems like my mouse isnt where it shows and you're not able to click anything, causing me to get stuck.

    I would recommend playing in windows mode for now. Seems like others have had this "mouse not showing where its actual placement is" issue as well when playing in full screen mode

    Changes I make in regedit don’t save (they are overrided once the launcher starts). Any ideas?

    I believe if you enter an invalid value for one of the entries in regedit, the next time you login, it just changes back to the default value

    That’s strange, maybe 9 is invalid then? I tried it yesterday and it seemed to work, although maybe it reverted to 1 the entire time. I was going based on the thread from starbery in 2018 (it was the first one I saw on Google at the time) but that might’ve been outdated

    Yeah i think putting 9 reverting to 1 is expected behavior. I tried that before too and it also reverted to 1
