Ok folks i have a 19" tft widescreen monitor and the display is 1440x900 is there any chance i can get SH3 to go to this i think it would make it look so much smarter any suggestions?:up:

Geniuses will be along shortly to advise.

I can tell you that I have a widescreen monitor and Windows XP SP2, so I looked into this (it's in the Wiki) and the directions to make it widescreen were just too scary, so I run in stock resolution.

Try this: http://www.communitymanuals.com/shiii/index.php?title=Display_Resolution

It`s not that hard. With a fast internet connection for the additional software it shouldn`t take more than 15 Minutes.

along those same lines, I have a 13" monochrome monitor and am running GWX on my trusty 286, 512mb hard drive. I notice the game won't always load properly and when I do get it to work, the screen is very choppy and the lag is quite severe. Any suggestions??

Er well apart from the obvious get a new PC but i'm really surprised it even runs on that rig im sure some one will have a suggestion i would try and run sh3 vanilla as any of the mods will put ectra strain on your GFX card etc.:up:

The only real snag i could see with it is possibly the GFX cards it maybe dont meet the minimum requirements:hmm:
