TOAW IV on Large Monitor Problems

Post by elxaime »

Hi I just got TOAW IV. The problem is that it doesn't seem to work well on the large Acer monitor display I have, which is 22x38"in size and runs best at the recommended (x300) resolution of 3840x2160. When I open the game up, it shifts the resolution all the way down to 640x480 and becomes basically unreadable/unplayable. Any advice on how I can make adjustments to fix this issue? I'd love to start seeing what TOAW IV can do, but am afraid I won't be able to make it work with my large monitor.

In part 19.10 of the manual there are appear to be settings to do it in the ini-file.

ChangeScreenResolution=N Y=Alternate Screen Resolution
ScreenY=768 Alternate Screen Resolution Parameter
ScreenX=1024 Alternate Screen Resolution Parameter

input your own screen size and see if it scales and works for you

Thanks, but how do you find the ini-file? I went to where the game installs on my windows 10 and do not see any file folders that contain the game files
