Zenophobe Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 When I launch demo I get a DEMETER MAIN: Unable to set screen resolution. I have a 22" wide-screen monitor, is this the problem and can it be played on one? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toby Haynes Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I've not had this issue but I can give you a possible solution. My guess is that your monitor won't display the default resolution for the game. However, you can change the resolution by editting the DropTeamSettings.dat file. Make a spare copy of DropTeamSettings.dat for a backup. Here's an excerpt from the file - you should change the numbers under DisplayWidth and DisplayHeight to something your system supports. </font><blockquote>code:</font><hr /><pre style="font-size:x-small; font-family: monospace;">...

Zenophobe Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 Good advice! The game runs now. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Haynes Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Cool - glad it worked (that also means if I buy a widescreen monitor I can still play this game ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
