1900 x 1200 resolution

Thrawn · #1 February 5th, 2008, 05:17 PM

The new patch mentions problems with running in 1900 x 1200 were fixed. However, when I try to select the 1900x1200 option, nothing happens. Before, I believe it was greyed out (I could be wrong). In the new patch, it's no longer greyed out, but when I click it...it doesn't select. By that I mean, no checkmark appears next to it, like for the other resolutions.

Am I doing something wrong?

It's not a giant issue by any means, I can run the game windowed and it looks fine. But, would be nice to run fullscreen in the right resolution so I can use the mouse to scroll.

Sorry, I got it wrong again. Next patch it will work properly, I promise.

In the meantime use this switch for the same effect:
--res 1920 1200

I'm sorry to be a horrible necro, but I did that fancy search option thing and this was the only thread i found discussing resolution problems.

My old monitor recently flat-lined (literally: all that I could see on the screen was a white line) and I went to the local computer store and picked up the cheapest monitor I could find, but unfortunately the native resolution is 1600x900 and when I went to change the settings on Dominions the 1600x900 option was grayed out. Any ideas as to whether or not I can change this? Or am I stuck playing the game with overweight soldiers?

Did you try using a "--res 1600 900" switch to force dominion with this resolution ?

I'm not savvy enough to understand what you mean, I think.

When I got my monitor hooked up, I changed the computer's resolution to match the monitor's native 1600x900 resolution, but the game resolution doesn't quite go up that high, so I'm left with everything looking stretched out when I play Dominions.

We're good now. I just turned off full screen mode and now i'm playing it windowed. It looks like it used to, and is a lot more convenient because now i can do other things!

I dunno why anyone plays with fullscreen mode on. Turning it off is so much more convenient.

I'm using the mac version here and I can't change resolution at all (It crashes every time I try)
