Help! Reolution is too high
« on: October 24, 2009, 04:30:31 PM »
I was trying to adjust the resolution in my game, and by accident I set it to like 1024x something, I can't remember what, but the point is now the Options button is off screen and I can't change it back.  Anyone know what to do?

go into your control panels and maybe change the screen resolution for your monitor to match it for the moment so that you can change it back. then restore it back to the original resolution.  Just a guess.

LOL....go to options and set it lower. Even if you changed it in ra2.cfg it will change to what you reset.

I can't, it's so big that the "optons" button is offscreen

go into ra2.cfg in the main ra2 folder and change the display. OR turn off the feature that makes the windows bar on the bottom of the screen go on top of everything.

yep, open ra2.cfg in notepad and change res to 800 x 600 and you will be good to go.

Sorry for the giga bump, but I was thinking... could you use the ra2.cfg to change it to resolutions that aren't in the options? Like 1280 x 1024? Probably not, but just wondering.

You can change it to any res your monitor will handle, but some widescreen resolutions mess up the placement of some buttons and the grid.
