Normally you just right-click on your desktop and go to 'display settings'. There is no way to do it in game or with switches.

Or try you're video card software, try the settings for stretching screen or keeping aspect ratio etc!

Any luck with this? Changing the size doesn't seem to help for me. I'm using a wide screen monitor, at 3440x1440 and need to scale down my resolution to make the game playable, but setting the resolution lower in Windows 10, doesn't seem to have any effect.

while i haven't testing the game at anything other than 1920x1080, so no not at 4k size or larger, the same principal applies
tm.asp?m=4187820
but once over a given size, the game when made when never even know of anything that large, so it's anyone guess if 4k or larger will scale and fit and work as it was never designed to do so[:(]

Hello. Have played WitP-AE for 10 years. Adjusted switches in the shortcut box to run full-screen on my laptop. Runs/displays well. I've just loaded EDBTR and the patch. Its runs fine (after fixing the pink text issue) but would like to get it to full-screen as with WitP-AE. Can I copy/paste the switch mods used in WitP-AE into the appropriate properties box in EDBTR? Or do I need to make EDBTR-specific changes?
Here is what I am using in WiTP-AE:
"C:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe" -px1366 -py768 -dd_sw -deepColor -cpu3 -archive -f
Thank you.

No, the WITPAE switches do not work with this game.
Switches are set within a 3rd party app called DXWnd.
