| 15 | | You can change various graphics settings in the file `binaries\data\config\system.cfg`. Open this file in Notepad to be able to edit it. You need not do this now, but they might be useful in the future. Here are the main ones you might be interested in changing: |
| 16 | | * Fullscreen mode: To enable fullscreen mode, change the line `windowed=true` to `windowed=false`. Also, add semicolons before `xres=1024` and `yres=768`. |
| 17 | | * Render path: If you have any problems with graphics due to an older graphics card, change the line `renderpath=default` to `renderpath=fixed` to make sure 0 A.D. uses no shaders. |
| 18 | | * Fancy water: Again, if you have an older graphics card, or just don't want all the fancy effects, you can disable pixel-shaded water by changing `fancywater=true` to `fancywater=false`. Note that it's also possible to toggle fancy water while the game is running however, if you only want to check how things look temporarily or just want to use it occasionally. |

| 20 | | If you modify `system.cfg`, make sure you do *not* commit it to SVN, so that new members check out the default version of the file. |
| | 15 | Various graphic settings are in the file `binaries\data\config\default.cfg`. To change a setting, create a ''new'' file called `binaries\data\config\local.cfg`. Open both these files in Notepad, and copy any lines you want to change from `default.cfg` into the new `local.cfg`. Here are the main ones you might be interested in changing: |
| | 16 | * Fullscreen mode: To enable fullscreen mode, add `windowed=false` into `local.cfg`. Also, add lines like `xres=1024` and `yres=768`, changing the numbers to make it match your monitor's resolution. |
| | 17 | * Render path: If you have any problems with graphics due to an older graphics card, add the line `renderpath=fixed` to make sure 0 A.D. uses no shaders. If this fixes the problems, please report it as a bug to us. |
