japinard Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 I want to run the game at 1600x1200, but my desktop is set to 1024x768. Is there a way to save the CM screen prefs? I don't want to have to switch my desktop to 1600x1200 every time I want to run the game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanachai Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 Very strange. I attempted to post in the arty anomalies thread, and it ended up here. [ September 25, 2002, 02:26 PM: Message edited by: Seanachai ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could set your desktop resolution to 1600x1200 then turn on large type and large icons to make things readable. Then delete the CMBB Prefs file in your CMBB folder and fire up the game. It should detect at 1600x1200. You do need a fair bit of graphics horsepower to run at that res. WWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-E Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Get the free program "Qres" (swaps desktop resolution, launches your program, then changes desktop resolution back to whatever upon exit). (You'll have to do a search on where to find it... I've had it for years and can't remember where I got it from at this late stage). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
