Possible to change windowed resolution?

[Willem VonBoom]

I run two monitors, usually the smaller on in 1280x1024 and the larger one in 1680x1050. When I run SH3, I just bring the smaller one down to 1024x768 and go windowed. Works out very well for me. It also seems as though the audio bugs from alt+tab stopped when I went to windowed mode.

That's a good idea I'd never thought of... especially using Display Changer, which would make it easy enough. Just set it up so the res automatically changes to 1024x768 when the game is running and reverts back when you exit. I use Display Changer and that option never even occurred to me!

Go into the properties of the shortcut. On the shortcut tab there's a RUN option towards the bottom. Selected Maximized to run the game in a full screen window.

I presume he's referring to the main game shortcut (usually on the desktop)...

Doesn't really work if you use SHCommander, though

Give it a try. When I used Display Changer to change my desktop resolution automatically whenever the Sh3.exe file was running, the way it worked was to edit the desktop shortcut. It still worked even when I launched the game through Commander. If something you do in the shortcut properties affects what happens whenever the file it points to is running, I don't think it matters how that file gets launched.
