Problem with screen resolution

Hello everyone :)
I face a bug with changing the resolution of the screen. When I run the engine I change the default 1024*768 to 1600*1200 (my display has 1440*900), then I quit the game according to the instructions but after running again it remains 1024*768. I tried to set another resolution but it also failed. What should I do? :?:
P.S. I run WinXP x64, latest Ca3D.

Thanks in advance,
Roman.

This is probably because setting the other resolution failed.

I don't know for sure, but probably your display driver supports no screen resolution from the Main Menus list other than 1024 * 768. Have you tried adding another line for 1440 * 900 to http://trac.cafu.de/browser/cafu/trunk/ ... cgui#L1159 ? That is, try adding

Code: Select all

VideoOptionsDialog.Frame.ScreenResChoice:Append(" 1440 x 990");
to the above mentioned file.

If that works, the next problem is probably that the aspect ratio is mismatching, because 1024 * 768 is 4:3 while 1440 * 900 is 16:10, but we'll look into that when setting 1440 * 900 basically works. ;)
