hey guys,
was reading this thread and decided to create my own.
I have a 7900GT and just got a Samsung 206BW widescreen LCD that runs natively at 1680x1050. I play BF2 and BF2142, and it doesn't have true widescreen support. You can force the resolution you want via the command line, but it's ugly.
I just now set the display options to Nvidia scaling with fixed aspect ratio, then started the game in 1280x1024.
I have the bars on the side, which is great. but it's stretching to fill the height by 26 pixels (taking 1024 and turning it into 1050, distorting a little).
how can I force it to 1280x1024 without it trying to stretch the height? with BF2's command line, you can force a resolution, but trying to force 1280x1050 doesn't work. i've edited the video.con files in both profiles, as well as the shortcut command line, and it just crashes to desktop when I start.
my goal is to have a perfect 1280x1024 image. is this possible?
even if it sits in the middle with black bars at the top and bottom - in addition to the sides - i'm OK with that.
thanks for any help..
