i want to play battlefield 1942 at a resolution of 1280x1024 but it dosent have that resolution in the video settings. i tried to edit the shortcut but it still doesent work.
right click on your desktop and select properties> then open the settings tab
you can then move the resolution tab to your selected setting (1028x1024 )
once done hit "apply" then "ok"
otherwise
what graphics card do you have(model/version/brand)? do you have full video acceleration enabled? update the drivers that the company provides:) its probably on they're website:D
Quote:Update 1: As of the 1.03 Patch, 1280x1024 has been added as a standard resolution on the Display Mode list, so you don't need to use the command line method to force this resolution anymore.

Quote:BF42 doesn't officially support higher resolutions like 1280x1024. There
is a way to force it though.
First go to:
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\
Settings\videodefault.con
Change the line:
renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 0
To this:
renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 1
Then go to:
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\Settings
Edit the following files:
video.con
videocustom.con
every time you see:
game.setDisplayMode 1024 768 32 85
edit it to whatever you like in this format:
game.setDisplayMode x=res, y=res, colordepth, refreshrate
e.g. game.setDisplayMode 1280 1024 32 75
Then set both files to read-only,
(if you don't want the settings getting changed).
If you are still using the default profile, instead of custom, then go to:
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942
\Settings\Profiles\Default
