Sill question on game resolutions.

Just got a new 22" screen and want to run my games at 1680 x 1050 how can I do this as the option does not seem to be in the game.

thanks

Usually possibly by changing an INI file somewhere amongst the games installed files

May sound obvious but some games you have to choose your aspect ratio (16:10) in another box first, before the widescreen resolutions become available.

check the widescreengamimg forum for more info on widescreen gaming.

As well as the handy forum, they have a list of lots of games, showing if they have native widescreen and fixes for those that dont

Any game in particular?

Battlefield 2, half life 2, farcry, and nfsu2

There's a few general suggestions in my sticky thread.

When fully updated, HL2 and FC should both natively support 1680x1050x32. There should be guidance for BF2 in the above and NFSU2 iirc needs a hack from WSGF.

Thanks think i've done it for both, but hard to tell. Is there a pic I can compare it to?
