Title: WA res side for old PC.
Post by: Kangaroo on October 16, 2014, 01:30 AM

I currently have 1024 x 768 res 32bit for WA and Normal computer use.

I have used the wormkit res module and tested out a whole range of res sizes but still cannot get anything larger then 1024 x 768 , everything I try ends up with strange placement and alot of the picture out of view.

But sometimes when I reopen from being minimized I see black screen with WA mouse and its alot smaller and sometimes also i see WA logo loader in centre of screen and its is alot smaller also... which makes me think it may be possible.

with 1024x768 res you can see about 50% or 60% of a standard Closed roper map.

Can anyone help me see more then 60% of map ?

Can WA be run in a windowed mode ? and if so what res ?

<StepS> if you use D3D9Wnd, you can edit registry or use wkLobbyCmd to set any resolution.

What does the "Video" (Graphics) tab in dxdiag say? Also, you could try updating DirectX 9 from the MS website if it doesn't work immediately.
