Resolution problem, game crash

Posted: Tue Aug 13, 2013 1:15 pm Post subject: Resolution problem, game crash

Hi guys, I got a little but very annoying problem. The game will not let push my resolution beyond 1280X1024,

For a while it was letting me go all the way up, but it would sys dump me every time I tried to start it, uninstalled, re installed fresh, fresh dl of update,
crashes stopped but now it doesn't give me the option of changing resolution byond 1280.

my system is not a bad one, 8 core, duel video cards, 16Gb ram, that sort of deal, but is running Win7

I have program set to run as admin on .exe and shortcut

problem exists with native load or pinger,

Hope someone can help as its hard to play something like BF3 on max settings then come back to my fav game and have 10 year old resolution.....lol

thanks

find your black hawk down folder and open the file dfv.cfg it will open in note pad

look down the list and you will see all the different res from 480 x ** to 1650 x ** after each entry you will see a 0 or a 1 just change the 0 to a 1 on the res you want.

then start the game and click options and video and you will have the res you want

hope that helps if not catch me on .........................................TS....................................lol

thanks, but it only sort of worked,

lets me up to other resolutions 1290, nothing above that will show, was trying for 1920x1080, but even when i set the higher levels, when i click OK to go back to menu it default changes to 1024x768, also, even though i made the file read only the DFV.CFG file rewrites itself back to default, interesting wouldnt you say...lol
