Game runs on Windows 10 but does not display correctly

Post by Zovs »

Is there a way to fix this?

I am running Windows 10 and I just installed the game along with the latest patch and I also ran the SeaBee utility.

So I have two shortcuts.

The default one will load the game but it seems to be in 640 x 480 mode and only the top left the interface is showing so it's unplayable.

The SeaBee shortcut loads the game but I can only see the Desktop but it also is in 640 x 480 mode but no game interface shows up.

Use a switch. I use "C:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe" -SingleCpuOrders -cpu2 -dd_sw -wd -px 2880 -py 1800 -altfont -archive -deepcolor -fixedArt -noFire

Am sure there are a number of posts on the forum that go into detail on use of various switches, unfortunately I do not have them bookmarked. Recommend using google search to find them. However it is the -px ???? and -py ???? settings you'll need to fix your resolution. Be sure to match your monitor's capabilities. Also be sure to set these in the "TARGET" path not the "START IN" path in the shortcut properties.

Alibi...I'm not familiar with SeaBee's assist utility, so not sure how you address there, am sure someone knowledgeable will jump in to assist.
