have you ever go an opengl render, wanted to change some **** real fast so u went to the advanced preferences menu(goto console, type preferences) and u get back into the game only to find that Opengl is now b0rked and u can't figure it out?

I did!! :D :D

the reason this happens is because usually the options in the advanced preferences are different from the ones that the renderer uses, so then OpenGL begins using parameters is doesn't know what to do with, thus it confuses itself and you get screwed with no S3TC textures!

it's simple to fix:
1. Go download the renderer again from http://unreal.epicgames.com
2. put that render in the system directory
3. go into your unrealtournament.ini
4. find the OpenGL section
5. Copy parameters for the renderer you have from http://unreal.epicgames.com to the unrealtournament.ini removing the defunct ones

OpenGL should now work again!

Rooster! you remember when i had this problem! I now can fix it! woohoo!!
