Hey! everybody!

Is there anyone out there/here within this forum has an idea on how to break the 1280x960 32bit depth resolution that IL2 has as a maximum resolution?

There is a Military flight sim called....USAF that has a forum that someone out there was able to create a MOD that added planes, things, and automobiles, that broke the maximum 1280x960 threshold of the game. And now the game can be played at 1680x1050 32bit and behond resolution.

I might try my hand at it. To try and break that resolution barrier within IL2.

:-?

Well, I play at 1920*1200. I wrote that figures because the post creator said he wanted to reach 1680*1050:

Both resolutions are 16:10 of course.

Maaan!! what an over whelming response. I will attempt the settings everyone here is sudgesting and let you know.

Yes my rig is a "16:10" widescreen LCD.


Again, Thanks! my people out there in the forum.

This is the stuff that dreams are made of.

Now I've got something to write home about.

Just accidently sprayed beer all over my keyboard...Laughing!!
Anyone else ever done that? :mrgreen:

[voowe]

Yep, it worked, my peoples.

Thanks for the input. I can now enjoy higher resolutions.

I know, I know....I should have been able to figure this out on my own. But you all know, when you have friends like you guys out there in the world, it makes life a lot more friendlier, and pleasant.


Thanks!!!

Is it possible (or sensible) to run 1920*1200 (or greater) on an LCD monitor with native resolution of 1680*1050? I don't want to experiment with it in case it damages something, but if someone has experience/knowledge of the issue, advice would be most welcome.
Cheers, Hoppy.

Not sure why you would want to run that Res on a 16 x 10 wouldn't you get black bars?

Anyway, I use 1680 x 1050, but what makes it really look good is the Ecran widescreen mod.... hock:

No, you can't run greater than the native res on a LCD.

The engine boost { Ctrl+E } is what really works well. :wink:
