hey has anyone here got this game? I'm trying to improve the performance but theres so many damn ini files I have no idea which one the game uses??? *sigh* gone are the days of 1 main ini file for a game....ut, ut2003 etc..

i'm sure some of the tweaks for ut3 would work on the game, I just need to find out which ini the game uses, i've been to midways forum but there aren't any proper sections for their games (lame forum)

Can anyone help?

Yes, this game uses Unreal 3 Engine, for tweaks see this: http://www.tweakguides.com/UT3_1.html

Most of this tweaks might work on all Unreal 3 based' games, like gears of War, Bioshock (this one have a stand-alone guide..), etc.

the game only saves one ini file called screen.ini and all that includes is the resolution and the option to start in fullscreen or not, nothing else, tried adding a few tweaks to it but the file is wiped upon exiting the game and none of the tweaks worked in that ini... so i'm still no closer to tweaking the game.

The game sucks its the same thing over and over just in mirrored areas.

seriously the game is a bin of garbage..waste of my bloody money :angry: , i only bought it because i liked the first game.

lol, guess im the only one whos actually enjoying it, just another mindless action shooter, nice.

i like the destructable objects but the blur pis*es me off a bit. Still can't work out how to tweak any settings though, stupid ini files...

the main ini file is located here:

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Midway\Blacksite\Config

"screen.ini" and contains only

[WinDrv.WindowsClient]

StartupResolutionX=1280

StartupResolutionY=1024

StartupFullscreen=True

ini locations in the installation folder of the game:

E:\Program Files\Midway Home Entertainment\BlackSite Area 51\Engine\Config

E:\Program Files\Midway Home Entertainment\BlackSite Area 51\Engine\Config\PC

E:\Program Files\Midway Home Entertainment\BlackSite Area 51\Engine\Config\PS3

E:\Program Files\Midway Home Entertainment\BlackSite Area 51\Engine\Config\Xenon

E:\Program Files\Midway Home Entertainment\BlackSite Area 51\A52Game\Content\Tweaks

E:\Program Files\Midway Home Entertainment\BlackSite Area 51\A52Game\Config\PS3

E:\Program Files\Midway Home Entertainment\BlackSite Area 51\A52Game\Config\Xenon

Now i have a feeling it's either A52Engine.ini or PC-A52Engine.ini, but so far i've had zero luck with changing any settings other than the damn resolution.

ROFL. Read what the designer of this game (he also designed Deus Ex) had to say.
