A small Tech Question???

leeclose · 03-06-07, 05:31 PM

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?

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.

Yeah i know kinda annoying i just know SH3 could be better with this monitor of mine oh well im sure some one will know.

Try this: http://www.communitymanuals.com/shii...lay_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??

leeclose · 03-07-07, 08:53 AM

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.

You should be managing fine with that rig

I'm at work right now but I'll post you a photo of my rig when I get home

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