You should also match your display settings to the "native" resolution of your LCD monitor, and set the game to that same setting. Again, if you have a newer display, you might have to do a multiple of the setting. Also, I do not start the game through UPlay, but use the SH4.exe file directly.

Hi propbeanie,

I'm not seeing the Properties page in my SH4 game directory. The only file that's close is the property.dll which I cannot open.

My current display monitor (which I've had since 2006) is an LG W1952 and the resolution is set to 1440 x 900, the same setting I've used in my game.

Also, I can open the game via the SH4.exe file from my game directory which bypasses the UPLAY app but is goes directly to a black screen after the introduction movie.
