RT2 with widescreen

[douglascaixeta]

Hi,

The classics never die. Unfortunatly our hardware always change.

I've got a new computer and it has widescreen, specifically 1366x768 (16:9). I can't change RT2 resolution. Seems that the default one is 1024x768 and it's not possible to increase.

Anyone having the same problem? Maybe it's possible to change by command line, or some parameter? The graphics appear stretched, so the gameplay are not nice as usual.

You may be stuck with the default settings of the game.

I looked for an answer but found none.

Sorry I couldn't help.

Welcome to modern technology Douglas.

That's one of the main reasons I still use CRT monitors and refuse to buy a flat screen TV. Everything is stretched out and looks ridiculous.

douglascaixeta, check some of the video settings on your computer or startup switches of the RT2 game.

On my flat/wide screen (1920x1200 native res) I have the normal RT2 screen flanked by two black areas.

Sorry that I cant be more specific than just saying that it can work the way it should. So, don't stop trying to find the solution.

Sometimes you cannot choose. Laptops are all coming with widescreen. I particularly don't like.

Thanks!  ;D

You really helped. I checked my video settings and I choose to not scale the resolution. Now I see the black areas, and the game looks fine! I didn't know was a video settings thing, I thought was a game problem.

For those who may have the same problem, my card is NVidia and Windows 7. Go to "Control Panel" and look for "NVidia Control Panel". In the left side (find a task) look for "Monitor" and option "Adjust size and position".  Mark the option "Do not scale".

That's it!
