Feel free to adjust the custom height and width to your desired resolution. Step 1: Open ~\Return to Castle Wolfenstein\Main\autoexec.cfg in notepad (or Notepad++), paste the following lines to the end (on new lines after "set devdll 1" ), and save the file.

Solution (summary): Add some lines to autoexec.cfg to use software render to create the wolfconfig.cfg file, disable software render in autoexec.cfg, edit wolfconfig.cfg file to enable windowed mode (essentially safe mode), start game then use settings menu to adjust settings as needed including switch back to full screen.

Theory (cause): Bad auto-config script, which can be bypassed using in-game config menu.

Note, specs and driver versions are mostly irrelevant, if you can run other Id Tech OpenGL based games without problems then it fits with this case.

The troubleshooting docs reference a safe mode short cut which doesn't exist (missing from installer?), deleting or editing the wolfconfig.cfg file which doesn't exist (game quits before creating it), and OpenGL stuff that seems obsolete (3dfx/Glade).Īfter wasting a few hours on troubleshooting - which GOG should have already documented in both an updated readme and support page - the following solution got it running.Ĭase (scenario): Fresh default install which crashes on startup -and- with the unofficial patch installed it quits with the "could not load OpenGL subsystem" error, -and- it did not create ~\Return to Castle Wolfenstein\Main\wolfconfig.cfg. The GOG default install crashes on start up, and with the unofficial patch it quits with the error "GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem".

The initial setup is irritating, but it works fine afterwards! After I get through the original, I'll play the mods: RealRTCW - Realism Mod for Return To Castle Wolfenstein, and RTCW Venom Mod for Return To Castle Wolfenstein - from ! And the widescreen resolutions are after the standard one, so keep on selecting till you see a WS in the resolutions. Start the game, load your save - here it's again very slow menus for me, but then the game loads fine and then I can setup my preferences, taking care not to set a bad resolution. Solution: go to the 'Main' folder and open wolfconfig.cfg with Notepad, search for fullscreen option and set to 0, also set the resolution back to something safe, like 800圆00. If I set the resolution to something beyond my display limits, the game crashes and won't start. While in the game, the menus to setup the game work fine now - or will work fine after a proper setup and program restart - so here I setup all my preferences. Just start a new game and ESC to skip the intro, then save the game - the menus now work fine. The menus to setup the game are horribly slow on the main menu. Note: when I started the game, the fmv is jerky, just pressed ESC to skip. Game works great on my Windows 10 laptop with integrated graphics, in widescreen and on max settings. Readme in zip says to backup a few files, then just copy contents of zip into game directory. Get the 'Return to Castle Wolfenstein v1.42d Patch' fom,.
