Syntax for changing the display resolution

Post by mr_moose »

Hi all -

I've got the same problme as another user had (that the game is displaying as 1024x768, rather than my actual screen size which is 800x600).

I want to edit the preferences file manually, so I just need the correct syntax to put in there.
( I tried displaysize="800x600" but that didn't work .... )

Very many thanks in advance -

Use:

Code: Select all

xresolution="800"
yresolution="600"
in your preferences file. You might also want to change xwindowsize and ywindowsize appropriately.

Great! Thanks very much, server!
I'll save this thread in a file for future reference. :-) Bye for now -
