I was playing with my screen resoulution in game. I tried the highest setting 1600 * 1200 or somthing and UT closed itself. i try opening UT again and i get this error.

CLW_startOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem.

If i did a reinstall of urban terror would al of my B3 stuff go away. If it does get deleted is there a file i need to save and transfer to the reinstallation?

This is what Urban Terror console says when i try to open Urban Terror

Edit your q3config.cfg (I think) resolution settings with Wordpad (do not choose 'always use to open this type of file') save and start UrT. I had the same problem when switching to a flat screen monitor that has limited resolutions.

Try the last known good resolution that worked.
