System.DivideByZeroException: Attempted to divide by zero.

Hi,

So I started up Terraria this morning and it started in a smaller window than usual. I went to change the resolution and the game crashed, giving me the following error:

System.DivideByZeroException: Attempted to divide by zero.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Terraria and TModLoader. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling XNA, but to no avail.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

You can probably resolve this issue for you by deleting your config.json file in /Documents/My Games/Terraria. But beware that this will reset your settings, you can make a backup of the file if you want to look at them for reference.

Thanks for the suggestion, I tried but it is still crashing when trying to change the resolution

At what exact point does it crash, when entering the resolution settings or when clicking onto the resolution setting itself?

On clicking the resolution setting itself

Hey @Mal1661, sorry to hear you're having issues.

We're fairly sure we've identified the reason for this crash, and while we can (and will) fix the crash itself, there seems to be an underlying issue with your graphics card. Did you recently update your graphics drivers, or maybe install an OS update?

When you go to the resolution menu, what shows up as the current resolution?

Thanks for your reply. I went ahead and uninstalled my graphics drivers and re-installed them, and that fixed it as you suggested.

Thanks for the help!
