Resolution

uniquemind · 04-18-07, 08:26 AM

I can't get the game to apply my resolution of 1280x1024 75hz........when I click apply it does nothing and leaves me with the default one.......this is with the game patched right up to and including 1.2...........any ideas?

Don't tell me this is yet another bug?

Many thanks

You need to restart the game after you´ve changed the resolution.

Right ok, but isn't that rather odd? afterall it has the apply button there and most games change it for you so you don't have to quit and then go back?

Thanks though, much appreciated

Alot of games are like that, for just one example ubisofts FarCry but there are a bunch more.

Ah well its sorted now anyway........many thanks

Yea but most games will tell you "Game has to be restarted before changes will be applied".

Minor oversight.
