Bug: High Resolutions not detected

Ynglaur · #1 April 2nd, 2009, 03:37 PM

Operating System: Windows XP SP3
Graphics Card: nVidia GeForce Go 7900GTX
Graphics Driver: Forceware 86.63
Monitor: HP w2408h
Laptop: Sager NP5760 (Clevo M57U)

Based on the attached picture, Dom3 3.23b is not picking up certain available resolutions. The monitor's native resolution is 1920 x 1200, but only 1680 x 1050 is available. 1680 x 1050 is the native resolution on the laptop's screen, but it's currently configured to use only the HP monitor (i.e. one display - not cloned or dual-display).

I've already attempting a fresh install and patch of Dom3. I have no mods installed.

Has anyone else seen this? Any ideas?

Known and should be fixed for next patch, whenever that may be. I've got 1920x1200 resolution running just fine, but it was at that res already before I patched.

I think command line works. In Windows, you can set up a shortcut that uses command lines, Linux users probably know about them already. No idea how they work in Macs.

I tried using the command line option:
dom3.exe -r res 1920 1200

The main menu launches without changing my monitor's resolution, but the menu just has the Exit option under the "Choose a Nation" text (see pic).

Try:

dom3.exe -r 1920 1200

Or:

dom3.exe --res 1920 1200

That worked! The Video Preferences menu shows a resolution of "1" selected, but the actual resolution is 1920 x 1200. Thanks!
