Title: I can't change resolution - please help me...
Post by: Orion66 on April 25, 2009, 04:29:31 pm
Hi

I try to run the game. It starts in windowed mode in 1024x768. When I want to change resolution or make the game works on full screen the screen gets black and then the game goes to desktop.
I have Vista Home Premium, updated ATI drivers.

As I read in FAQ I should look for config.cfg file. But still am not able do switch resolution. How can I do that?

Try run it with commandline parameters:

Code: [Select]
D:\Games\UFOAI-2.2\ufo.exe +set vid_mode 18 +set vid_fullscreen 1
(Replace the path to which suits your system)
