Just a quick heads-up: if you want to run NewDark in windowed mode, you may notice that simply uncommentiing the force_windowed line will (still) crash you. That happens due to use_d3d_display being active. In short:
- get cam_ext.cfg open
- remove semicolon character in front of force_windowed to uncomment it -> force_windowed
- comment use_d3d_display line with a semicolon character -> ;use_d3d_display
- save file
I needed that for commands debugging.. and thought some of you may've wondered why it didn't work.

Sorry about that. I confused the parameters. Corrected main post. It was use_d3d_display :)

this is basically the super safe mode. no matter how shitty and broken your gpu is (intel hd3600), this setting should get the game running. barely.

I have a GTX card (Nvidia GTX670), so "horsepower" is out of the question :)

well, not sure what are you trying to do, but using the DX6 safemode is only recommended when everything else fails completely.

@
voodoo47: Using NewDark in windowed mode, that's what I am trying to do. If I go with the default cam_ext.cfg and remove the semicolon in front of force_windowed line, I get this:

post your shock2.log (one that gets created when you get the error message).
