SH4 Wondows 10 screen issue

Zero Niner · 02-17-17, 02:36 AM

Sorry for the thread necro, but I've just re-installed the game (incl UBM) after a long hiatus and I'm having a problem with the game resolution. It appears that no matter whatever resolution I pick in graphic options the game appears "stretched".
I'm using a wide screen monitor 1920x1080 but even when I select 1024x768, or 1920x1080 I still have this issue.
How can I get the game to look normal again?

Hi ZN
This would appear to be a driver or GPU setting issue

Make sure your drivers are up to date.

What Aspect Ratio do you have the game set to? Most likely it should be 16.9.

I'm using the native resolution of my monitor. But it's all good now, I found a solution elsewhere on the interwebs. :;

Please share your solution with us, you never know when someone else might have the same problem.

Happy to hear you got things up and running.

I searched Subsim and couldn't find a solution that worked so I googled and came across this forum: http://www.wsgf.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=30590

Post #5 in that thread has 2 files available for download that replaces the SH4 exe and one of the camera files. I used it and the game looks normal again.
