When I try just a clean install, the game launches with no visible video
Test 1: Clean install of worms with wrapper installed. .
http://screencast.com/t/6TCdAOMjNote that although it's only recording the worms as a small box, in actuallity it's a full screen view on my side, but I can only see whats in that small box.
Test 2: When I change WindowedFrontEnd to 1, then on my end, it displays exactly how you see it in the screenrecording above and I can see all of the game, however it's as if it's displaying smaller then what my system thinks it is. In otherwords, I have to move my mouse to the far bottom/left of my entire screen to choose settings, but when I click, nothing happens. I've also changed "WindowedInGame" and it's simply the same result, on the small window you see above is full screen.
Now, I've messed around with the windmode file and the best I've gotten is the game will launch small (about a quarter of the size of the screen), but when I click to play a game, it expands way to big. In otherwords the app window is at least 2x bigger then the screen. It appears that no matter what mode i'm in, worms will change my screen resolution to 640 when it is 2500 by default. So at the end of every test I must manually change my resolution back to normal. If i do that while the game is running, the game will simply stop displaying properly.
Here are the settings:
[WWPSettings]
WindowedFrontend=1
WindowedInGame=0
