Error: Can't set screen mode

Post by BossGnome »

So, sorry guys, I know resolution questions get asked all the time, but I keep getting this error message "can't set screen mode" when I try to run the AE beta. I deleted the "-w" command, and inserted instead the resolution that I wanted "-px1920-py1080"

I am pretty sure that my problem is not the soft hyphen since whenever I reinsert the "-w" command the game works again, albeit in super-small windowed mode.

Any ideas?

NVM guys, fixed the problem - just required a bunch of tweaking on my part.

Now, I need an opponent!
