Playing higher monitor resolutions

Postby jeff1955 on Fri Dec 13, 2024 11:55 am

Hi All,

Just treated myself to a new QHD monitor so a native resolution of 2560 x 1440 which replaces my old FHD at 1920 x 1080. I had discovered how to tweak the registry to get full screen at 1980 on my old monitor long ago from this post;

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4526&p=36668&hilit=changing+screen+resolution#p36668

Now I can't push full screen to my new native res and am having to play the game windowed at 1920 x 1080. Has anyone discovered registry values beyond 15 which will allow me to force 2560 x 1440?

This is no huge problem, just I keep catching items on my taskbar if I go down to the bottom menus in Links.

As usual - forever grateful if anyone has a solution

Howdy jeff,

Thanks Echoes, thought I'd try here as this forum provided the original solution I quoted in my first post. It's no Biggie and I'll continue to play windowed and maybe take your suggestion and try Links Corner.

Thanks again

Jeff

I took the liberty of posting something at Links Corner ( I was curious).
Here is the link to the thread:

I didn't think it would be possible, but then i don't even play links at 1920 x 1080. I don't like that round swing meter, i play at 1280 x 1024 32 bit full screen. I like that oval swing meter.
