The game itself is from Steam.


Ok, I don't know why, but I tried again with the cfg file in Documents, and now it works...? I don't think I did anything differently. That's weird. It should be noted for those that have the same problem, it seems Steam doesn't restore the main.cfg file under Documents (because it's supposed to be your personal settings), so if it gets corrupted you must edit it or overwrite it with a copy that works yourself because Steam won't do it for you.
