Screen resolution

Post by Hotschi »

Good morning everyone - is it possible to change the screen resolution in War Plan Orange? I tried the -px1440 -py0900 thing as in WitP-AE, but didn't work.

You could try right clicking on the Game shortcut on your desktop, and select properties.Select run in normal window, or click on the compatibility menu and change some settings in there, hope this helps.[;)]

You can use the shortcut which launch the game without the start menu (War Plan Orange.exe) then edit the properties like this :
"C:\Matrix Games\War Plan Orange\War Plan Orange.exe" -wd -px1400 -py900 ( " -wd" it's to play in windowed mode).
This works for me.

Thanks, tried your switsches which somehow work here; I get the higher resolution you use, but the game only displays the map on the left 66 percent of the monitor, the rest stays black. I have the odd feeling WPO doesn't support widescreens - correct?

Switches -w and -f both work, btw
