Resolution, quick question

Uboatman · 12-01-08, 06:23 PM

I'm using a 19"tft monitor, for the 1st time I have set my 8800GTX card to 1280x1024,
I have spent the last couple of hours going through the threads on res fix, ok, great info there, my question before I refer back to those threads is how do I know if I need the resfix/what res is the game in?

The game is natively in 1024 x 768 as far as I'm aware.

Do you have a file path so I could check? The only thing about it I found was in the main.cfg, under video was 1024x800 not sure if that is the right info.

Well if that's what's it says in the .CFG then that would be correct.
Modifying that value in the .CFG (both the one in your game folder and the one in My Documents) will change the resolution accordingly.

Well, interesting thing was the My Documents Main.Cfg did not even have a resolution line in the video section

so i copied and pasted the modified one from the core game files, will that do?

Also forgot to mention I have a Widescreen, but have been looking through lots of posts on this and it seems that is my fault for buying one in the 1st place if I wanted SH3 to have a Round periscope view

as it'll never be round again, unless I get another normal monitor of course, oh well, put that on my priorities list might have one in 2 years
