I'm guessing you are trying to set the screen resolution greater then what your monitors resolution is.
Figure out your monitors resolution, and type in your console

Code: [Select]

setRes(ScreenSizeX, ScreenSizeY);Replacing ScreenSizeX with the width in pixels of your monitor, and ScreenSizeY with height.

If it only happened when he went into full screen then have him not go into full screen. He can go into Blockland/config/client/prefs.cs find $pref::Video::fullScreen and set it to 0, so it'll look like $pref::Video::fullScreen = "0";

I'm gonna take a shot in the dark but I'm guessing this is probably because his graphics card is very old and is no longer supported. Does he have a very old PC?

"brown townog input cannot display this video mode"

either card or monitor because I sortof get what the message is saying
monitor too small, or card too old

Thanks for your help guys. However the issue isnt that he cant play in fullscreen; That isnt a worry now, he can easily play without it. It's the fact that whenever blockland is opened, it automatically tries to be fullscreen and shows the error. Game is unplayable.
