Resolution Help Needed

Post by SilentHunter »

Before buying the game I came here to see if custom resolutions are available, although there was no specific answer there was a post about modifying the config file to adjust the resolution. I've modified my config file but the game won't launch, I hear a clicking sound from the launcher but nothing happens. I can play the game in 1024x768 but nothing higher. Here's what I'm trying to achieve


[Main]
FPSLimit = 75
Fullscreen = true
Language = ENG
ResolutionX = 3072
ResolutionY = 768

So OK, I saw that in the data folder you have GUI_resolution files. I was trying to run 1600x768 or 1920x768, but would really like to run 3072x768. When I used a resolution you have a GUI file for it now launches. Is the thought of making my own for 3072x768 going to cause me a headache and should I just forget about trying to run higher than 1920x1200?

Edit - In 1600x960 in window mode the menu is cutoff. When running in full screen mode like this it's not stretching across my monitors like it does in windows mode. Any suggestions?

OK so I just took the GUI_1024x768 and copied and pasted it then renamed the copy GUI_3072x768. Changed the config files back to 3072x768 and now the game is on all my screen @ 3072x768. The button and interface are on the left monitor which is not a big deal but maybe I'll find a way to fix that tomorrow. I guess I'm happy with it as is, at least I can see it now and it looks glorious!

^^^ OK it's not working as I expected. Although I have it displayed across all three screens @ 3072x768 and all the icons show up on the left monitor the issue is anytime I move the cursor to the middle monitor it scrolls the screen to the right. Causes me not to be able to select units on the middle screen without auto scrolling happening. Is there some way to disable edge mouse screen scrolling? Or is there a way to get this @ 3072x768?
