Widescreen ?
Hi,
I've changed my old fullscreen lcd for a widescreen one. But I don't see any option to turn the game to widescreen. I can turn res to 1650*1080, it's OK, but the picture is horizontally stretched. Any option to fix this ? Maybe a command-line parameter ?

Re: Widescreen ?
I would like to see this too. I run 1920x1200 on my laptop.

Re: Widescreen ?
Use "-r 1920 1200" for example to set the [r]esolution to 1920x1200. This is a command-line switch; the exact way to use it varies by operating system. Windows you make a link to the .exe and append the switch in the properties window of the link; on my Mac I start the game with an applescript that looks like:
do shell script "cd ~/Desktop/Dominions' '3/Dominions3.app/Contents/Resources/; ../MacOS/Dominions3 -r 1920 1200"
and if you're using Linux, you probably know how to use a command-line switch.

Re: Widescreen ?
1680*1050 is great with the game, I don't see any stretchings.

To find the option in the game:
Preferences -> Video preferences -> click on Fullscreen Resolution -> Choose your new Resolution (in your case 1680x1050)

Re: Widescreen ?
I can run the game in 1680*1050, but the display isn't correct. My monitor is looking like the upper part of this picture and I'd like to make it look like the lower part which seems more correct (I've cut the upper corners of the screenshots) :

Are you using custom settings ?

Re: Widescreen ?
I have the same problem. I'll set it to widescreen, but it's not true widescreen. Maybe it's our vid cards. I just run the game windowed and make it a square.
