Belle Posted April 28, 2001 Share Posted April 28, 2001 Two ambitious statements: 1. A greater game than Combat Mission I there has not been. 2. A greater platform than Macintosh there has not been. The only thing preventing the greatest synthesis the gaming world has ever seen is that the current version of CM isn't playble at a resolution greater then 800x600 on a mac. Will CM2?

Madmatt Posted April 28, 2001 Share Posted April 28, 2001 Umm, what sort of Mac are you running (and video card) and who said you can't play in higher than 800x600? Madmatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panther131 Posted April 28, 2001 Share Posted April 28, 2001 Hi Belle, I am runnin CM on a mac, and I am running CM at 1152x 870. Works fine for me. Maybe your running CM without 3d hardware? Could that be why his resolution is no more then 800x 600? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyrene Posted April 28, 2001 Share Posted April 28, 2001 Your video card's memory will determine your resolution. I can squeeze 800x600 out of my Rev D iMac (6mb vid RAM), but have played it at 1024x768 on a newer iMac. Gyrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffsmith Posted April 28, 2001 Share Posted April 28, 2001 Also run my Mac and CM at 1024x768 CM defaults to what your Mac is set at when you launch CM Easy way to Change resolutions in CM to see the differences between each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle Posted April 28, 2001 Author Share Posted April 28, 2001 Playing off a Rev D iMac - at 1024x768 and CM always quits. CM v1.12 on 333 iMac OS9.1 ATI Rage Pro Turbo 6 MB video memory 512 backside +buckets of RAM Gyrene's post below suggests the same. Matt - original tech notes suggested issue (v1.03) but it could be my interpretation. Thanks all - I hope I've been living in a fool's paradise!

Michael <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Michael, go to your system folder/preferences, find the CM prefs file and dump it. Then make sure you are at 800x600 mode before you start the game again. This should give you a new prefs file which will now default to 800x600 Gyrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
