Game crashed and won't start after enabling the first option in Settings/Rendering about rbdoom-3-bfg HOT 5 OPEN

The D3BFGConfig.cfg and autoexec.cfg files are located in /home/<yourlogin>/.local/share/rbdoom3bfg/base

However, if you changed the fullscreen mode and think this is the issue, you can leave the config files alone and run the following command from your build dir. This is will run the game and set the fullscreen mode back to windowed mode.

$ ./RBDoom3BFG +set r_fullscreen 0

FYI - I am running on Manjaro (Arch) Linux with an AMD 6600XT card and things work properly there.

I found that what I enabled was VR (3D) display, which I don't have.
I have found the config files using the fzf utility and after deleting all config files I was able to get it working again.
Maybe it'd be good to add some failsafe in case the user enables this but has no VR interfaces connected? Or at least ask them for confirmation before proceeding?

Are you using the 1.5 release? The 1.6 preview version built from master removes the 3D/VR menu, so hopefully you won't be able to get into the situation you faced above. I believe @RobertBeckebans has a different branch with VR capabilities.

@SRSaunders I'm using whatever comes with this Lutris installation script:

Maybe they could update it or something?

As of writing, Lutris seems to be using an old version, somewhere between 1.5.1 and 1.6 (but closer to 1.5.1 in terms of features):
