Game is Broken From Changing Settings
Like the title says, after starting the game, I went into settings, changed the resolution and then changed it from windowed to full screen.
After that I could no longer click any menu options so I had to alt + f4.
I started the game up again and I could still not click on anything.
It would have been nice to be able to try the game out. What am I supposed to do now?

Hi Crawlspace Hobo,

What resolution did you change to? And what resolution is your monitor?

Sorry for the inconvenience!

Can you try navigating to here for me:

C:\Users\<your_pc_name_here>\AppData\Local\Horror\Saved\SaveGames

There should be a file called usersettings. If you delete that, it will reset your game's configuration.

That should let you try it again.

Let me know how it goes!

Thanks for reporting back btw, I will look into this bug.
I deleted that file, it didn't work so I deleted the whole horror folder and it started working again.
Changing the resolution and turning vsync on worked however changing the fullscreeen options are what breaks it. I'll just leave that alone I guess.
Thank you for he help
This time I could adjust the fullscreen options but I left the resolution blank. Seems to be good now.

I suspect it's got something to do with bigger resolutions... I will try my best to investigate. Although I do not have a huge monitor like yours hahah.

When you deleted the usersettings file (when it didn't work the first time), did it prompt you to do the first time set up again when you launched the game?
I prefer using a 60" TV. And yeah it prompted me to set up again.
Thanks again for the assistance.

Hi you both!!! Another 4K monitor user here.

First of all, I would like to thank the dev for his fast reply, and also the user for sharing the problem. It has been really useful for me, because I just bought the game recently. So I will also wait for a patch solving this issue, or maybe I will follow your previous piece of advice if I play the game soon.

Thanks a lot again for hearing the community, and best of luck for your future projects!!! :)

Thanks for the kind words :)

I'm curious if the problem occurs for 4K monitors as well. If it does, can you please let me know?

I think just leaving the screen settings as it is shouldn't cause any problems. Otherwise, yeah, following the steps that Crawlspace Hobo did should do the trick.

Hi again examlguy :)

Finally I have been playing like an hour and a half and I can tell you everything is fine for me. I could set the 3840 x 2160 native resolution of my monitor and worked fine.

RTX 3070 with latest drivers (572.83) here.

So 4K resolution display option works fine so far, at least for me. Also the game is really funny, I just sent the survey as well.

Thanks a lot for hearing!!! Best regards.
I didn't change the resolution at all, just the quality to medium and I'm still having the game crash after it says "do you remember" everytime.

Hey psychomelic!

Sorry for the inconvenience, I am currently working on a fix addressing some crash issues.

Can you try switching over to developtest beta branch and see if it still crashes?

You can switch to it by:

- Right click Anomaly Exit in your steam games library
- Go to properties
- Go to Betas tab
- Then there should be a dropdown that says "none", change it to developertest

Hopefully it should fix the crashing for you, can you let me know if that works?
