Help... who shrunk my game?

Post by Red Devil »

For some reason my game size has shrunk to a tiny screen?

It has always run fine. I have never needed to use the 'switches' in the command line for it to run well.
Now it is running in a tiny window within a huge black border. Almost impossible to read Ops reports now.

Although I have never needed to use the switches i have tried them, but apart from either running 'full screen' (i.e. with big black border around it) or running in a window, which i cannot expand to fill the full screen, nothing else seems to change. I tried the -px -py options but that doesnt change anything in the size of the game. Can anyone help prevent me having to squint my way to victory..??

This info helped before to somebody with black bars on the sides, your problem is related with scaling, in your case probably you are using "a do not scale" option. This is for NVIDIA, I guess that there are similar options in ATI graphic cards

Try with your graphic card drivers settings (NVIDIA control panel)

"Change flat panel scaling" and then select "Use NVIDIA scaling"

If you cannot select or hold that selection (only display bult-in scaling), try first reducing the screen resolution to any res below the native one and then "Use NVIDIA scaling"
