Right, bought myself a nice new monitor (Samsung P2450H). It is running at 1920x1080. All my games (on pc) are fine, Left 4 Dead 2 etc except Medal of Honor Breakthrough.

As soon as it loads up, the sponsor screens, then the menu screen and the game are huge!! I can see about 3/4 of the screen, but the rest seems to be missing.

I have changed the video settings to the highest in the MoH video options, but that still doesn't help.

Any help appreciated!
 
Is there a manual way to vhange the resolution? I'm not familiar with the game sorry. No graphics config tool overriding the game settings?
 
Probably where the game is so old. IIRC it uses the Quake 3 engine which has always been finnicky with screen resolutions, and after a bit of googling it would appear that it doesn't like widescreen resolutions and probably wont work in a native resolution (although you could probably play in another res like 1280x1024 or 1600x1200

Also shouldn't this be in the PC games section as its the fault of the game?
 
so when i want to play the game i need to change the screen resolution everytime before booting up?

Thanks, i'll give that a try - bloody annoying though as all my desktop folders will be messed everytime!
 
shouldnt there be cfg commands like r_customwidth "1920" and r_customhight "1080" or smth like that, that you can add to your cfg file?, been a few years since i played a Q3 engine game, i think these are the commands we used in ET

edit: found this guide for setting up a widescreen for Q3, maybe its worth a look if the game your having probs with is based on the q3 engine.. http://quake.freakygaming.com/pc/action/quake_3/tutorials/running_quake_3_in_widescreen.html
