System configuration
This menu governs how your machine is configured to run Worms Armageddon.
Video options
Video display resolution
Worms Armageddon allows you to play the game in a number of different resolutions, 640x480 (Default), 800x600 and 1024x768. Running the game at a higher resolution requires more system resources, so unless you are running on an optimum system (Pentium, 200Mhz or above with a 4Mb video card) we recommend running at the default resolution.
Running in a higher resolution has the advantage of being able to view more of the landscape, which certainly helps in performing long gunshots, for example.
Note: During initialisation of the game, if there is a problem with generating the resolution required, the game will default to 640x480. (Since v3.6.29.0, it will default to the highest available legacy resolution (1024×768, 800×600 or 640×480).)
Secret selection
As you play Worms Armageddon, results in various rounds of the mission game and achievements during training will enable you to use various modes, cheats and tricks. These will be revealed on this screen. To activate, simply click on the icons when they are lit up.
