In-game Screen Resolution

Well not sure what happened.

Haven't played the game for a week due to class, but just tried playing DFX and the resolution is not the same like the last time I played. Closed out of it and opened up BHD...same issue. Between the 2 games it seems like its not supporting widescreen!
-Opened up JO:TR and it seemed to be just fine at the menu.

Anybody else ever run into this problem or know what I'm talking about.

Like I mentioned before I never messed with any of the setting since I installed the games and they all worked fine a week ago when I played last. All 3 games would fit the size of my screen during menu and in-game play time and now its smaller.

Any help would be great!!!

Best regards,
TitaN-R2K

Did you resently update your video card?

Whenever I get a driver update for my video card, all my Delta force games do a video configuration check.

Advice in future regardless of this problem is to not update your Video drivers unless you have a new App or Game that requires higher levels of revision...As you know things can go haywire. Dave I have the same prob every time... I actually had to Roll back my Catalyst Drivers recently. Don't like AMD
Will go back to nvidia in future !

I am doing a bit of research on your Problem R2K so hang in there,

Check out the file game.cfg and see if the res settings match yours. make a backup but I assume you can reset the game by deleting the data or the file therfore making the game reconfigure (test) your video settings

Stomp, Have you or can you edit those resolution settings manually?
I've never tried it and was wondering.

I think they are detected values, re: (screen resolutions) they are quite editable if anything like other config text files.
0: being OFF
1: being ON
2: and above being variable settings

These seem to show the capabilities and settings in the one file, versus a .cfg .inf .ini combination.
I will have to do some experimentation on this particular file. I'll get back to you on this, bit busy at present but I am keen to help the member out here so it will be a priority 1 job

I know that DFX2 set my max. resolution as 1680x1050 (because it detected my screen size).

Just wondering.
