Default How To Change SH4 To Full Wide Screen Resolution

New Tutorial 2nd May 2018
How To Change SH4 To Full Wide Screen Resolution


In SH4 > Option > Graphics you should be able to see your Monitor/Laptop’s Native Resolution by using the drop down box.
If it is showing then you can make the change permanent.

The default resolution for SH4 is 1024 x 768 which is based on the old VGA monitors using the 4.3 format when the game was first released.

In this Tutorial I will show you how to change the resolution for example to the popular 1920 x 1080 wide screen resolution.
The principal is the same for any Native Monitor/Laptop Resolution.

Go to your > C: Drive > If you only have 1 drive it will be C:
Go to > Documents
Select > SH4 (Or your own saved game folder > Tutorial example is GFO)
Go to > data
Go to > Cfg

Picture 1 > Highlight > the Main.cfg File and right click on it with your mouse and select > Properties.


Picture 2 > If Read Only is ticked it needs to be unticked.


Picture 3 > Apply and then Ok to save the changes.


Open > Main cfg File.

Picture 4 > Is showing the default setting 1024 x 768 60 HZ 22 on the left Notepad.
The picture on the right Notepad shows the changed wide screen resolution to 1920 x 1080 60HZ > the 22 should not be changed.
Enter your Native Monitor/Laptop’s Resolution and HZ.


Go to > File
Select > Save
Exit.
