Default Same for me

Hi All;

Same for me. Since I bought a new wide screen HD monitor there seems to be nothing outside of changing the game's hard code (if at all possible) that will allow me to play the game in a 4:3 aspect ratio.

I did some research over the last couple of days and as a result set my video card to accept the software's aspect ratio......no problem, no joy. The monitor overrides this. Next I went into my flat screen Setup and tried to set up the aspect ratio to 4:3. The monitor does have an option to change the aspect ratio to 4:3 but its not accessible in HDI.....I'm so confused by now it doesn't matter any more. No joy ......unless I dig out my old VGA cables and use it in VGA mode. Unfortunately that's not gonna happen.

Despite the fact that I spend most of my time on the computer playing games, I DO do other things that are important so.....it is what it is and I'll just have to accept the situation.

I wish I would've known these things before I purchased the WS HD monitor, but just like everything else in life, we can't know everything. For now I'll be playing the game with skewed graphics and be happy because there is no way I'm NOT playing this terrific game.

Just a few thoughts as I stumble on with my pathetic little life.

Cheers,
