1280x1024 and display aspect ratio

jaxa · 04-29-07, 03:13 PM

I play GWX at 1280x1024 resolution using high resolution fix and it looks good. There is only one thing irritating me - display aspect ratio. It's 4:3 ratio and clocks at control panel look like oval, not circle. How to change display aspect ratio from 4:3 to better 5:4?

You can't unless either your monitor or your video card are capable of that. SH3 has -unlike SH4- no 5:4 resolutions implemented, the only one available was 4:3 (1024x768). So if you play in a 5:4 monitor, you are stuck to see oval clocks and scope, as well as a vertically streched world.

If you have a NVidia card, check your control panel. They have an option to solve that. ATI unfortunately hasn't it
