Widescreen

SuperKungFu · 07-15-06, 07:23 PM

I just got DW and i want to run it on my laptop. i did a search and found two threads asking the same thing but they didn't get it to work. So i want to ask again just to be sure, is there any way to get the correct ratio (1.6) to work with DW? Please i really want this to work. I found out a lot of games/sims out there doesn't support widescreen which is very weird, the devs should have consider this factor or come out with a patch. I am currently running on patch 1.03

My copy of DW is still in the mail, but I installed Sub Command on my widescreen laptop just to see if it runs well and the widescreen seems to work fine.

So still no word that it can be applied to DW?

The same answer that Oneshot gave you at the SCS forums, widescreen cannot be used with DW.

I believe you have to set your screen for a 4:3 aspect ratio.

Cheers,
David

Update... I got my copy and installed it on a Toshiba Satellite Widescreen and ran it at 1024 x 768... works fine.
