Last two video resolutions blanked out...
« on: November 14, 2002, 12:06:03 PM »
I have been using 1280X1024 to run AH. Installed the latest drivers, version 40.72 from Nvidia. They work great on the other two games I run on here, supporting the resolution I want, but for some reason AH is only letting me run a max of 1024X768 which I find unacceptable. Field of view is too small and edges are jaggy now.

Any clue why it is doing this and what I need to do to correct it?

Thanks in advance.

After further investigation I found out the new drivers will only support up to 1280X960. I was able to type in those values in the video7.cfg file, save it, and when I launched the game that is what it was using.

Ive heard the 40.72 drivers aren't that great. Try going back to the 40.71 and see if that helps:)

I find the drivers very good myself, they produced a pretty hefty increase in frame rate (much to my surprise). It just doesn't support all the same resolutions. 1280X960 is not what I wanted, but pretty close. Close enough and I am happy with it :)
