@Pisces He could use black bars, but I think he wants the game to use the full real estate of his monitor.

@Avers, I can only think of a couple of things.

Go into your Silent Hunter 3 folder (Example: "SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\Silent Hunter 3"), right click on sh3.exe, then go to properties, Compatibility. Where it says Compatibility mode, check "Run this program in compatibility mode for:". Select from the list "Windows XP (Service Pack 3). Hit OK.

Do not run any of these mods alongside the HD mod.

Also, do not run Silent Hunter 3 through Steam. In my experience, I haven't found a way to get a modded SH3 and Steam to play nice together.

And once again, these mods only work with an in-game resolution of 1360x768. You may have to uninstall the mod, open the game and check the settings to make sure it's set to run at 1024x768, then re-install the mod and try again.

Best wishes, Avers!
