Regexz Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Hi there, I have a small problem. When I start Dune 2000 (on my dads comp) I can only see the top right big of the starting screen (and other visuals) I think it has something to do with my dads comp resolution, but I'm not sure, can some one please help me?
syczek Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 you need 800x600 to play dune, or higher,or copy dune200 to desktop (make shortcut) check properties and go to program, add a -g thing into pattch and may fix grapchics problems
Regexz Posted April 30, 2004 Author Posted April 30, 2004 Res of 800x600 and higher. And I don't understand that last bit about adding a -g in my pattch. Still trying to look that up.

Regexz Posted April 30, 2004 Author Posted April 30, 2004 Ok here goes. When ever I start Dune 2000 I can only see about 1/4 of the full screen (which should be shown) ussually only the Upper Left corner of the (ussual) screen. Not sure how to solve it XD. Ohw en I'm a complete noob with comps so...... detailed. explenations on how to solve this if this is solvable would be welcome.[attachment archived by Gobalopper]
shygirl4 Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 hi Regexzto start with you should update all your video drivers, also download directX 9 from the microsoft website, if you have a nVidea or other quality video card they have optional screen adjustments available,its in control panel/display/settings/advanced. also while your in there click the monitor tab, and adjust your refresh rate to at least 75 hertz, im asuming your using windows xp.Shy ::)
bryorama Posted May 1, 2004 Posted May 1, 2004 Shy, You should not make fun of people like that - it's not very nice. I'm dead serious. You might have hurt his feelings - you have no idea, you have not the right to do things like that. >:(Be ashamed, very ashamed.
Regexz Posted May 1, 2004 Author Posted May 1, 2004 Well I tried what you mentioned Shygirl and guess what.........it didn't work. And actually syczek wasn't pronnouncing nonsence. As it says in the Read Me (which I only read after syczek pointed that bit out to me) it says: "2.1.2. Display only appears in top 1/3rd of screen. If this happens please add the "-g" option to the command line for Dune 2000. Please refer to 2.1.1 for details on how to do this.". Altough I'm not sure if they mean it appears in your screen for only 1/3rd of the normal screen or that the normal screen appears in only 1/3rd of your screen.
Gobalopper Posted May 1, 2004 Posted May 1, 2004 I'm locking this. Regexz please continue this thread in the Dune 2000 Support board if you still require help.
