Widescreen resolutions wont apply... reset to 800x600

Post by Rod Hull »

I'm running Vista and a GeForce 8800 GT, I've just installed Starshatter: The Gathering Storm on my machine and I cannot change resolution to the two widescreen settings. I can select either of them and then apply, but it resets to 800x600 each time. All the other resolutions seem to work but not the widescreen ones (and as I have a widescreen monitor I'd like to use it). Can anyone offer me a solution ?

Edit: Found a work around, Edit the resolution in the video.cfg file in the game directory, just make sure all other graphic settings are selected as pressing "Apply" resets to low res.

Set the video.cfg file to readonly and it won't be able to change the setting back to 800x600 every time you go into the options screen. I came here to post about the same bug but you beat me to it. Seems no one at Matrixgames is paying attenrtion anyway. Real good tech support you got there Matrixgames!
