  • civ3 on higher resolutions?

    Hey guys, i havent posted in these for a long time now, but ive been playing civ lately and its getting annoying on a crappy 1024*768 it really ****s me having a 17" monitor and a 9600 and not being able to play such a graphically unintensive game on such small res.
    how do i change it to 1280 by 1024 or at least 960?

    Add the line

    KeepRes=1

    To your .ini file. Civ3 should run at your desktop resolutino then.

      More specifically, with keep res = 1 it will switch resolution for the intro video, but switch resolution right back for the main menu.

          Which one ini file are we talking about? Maybe conquests.ini?

              Yeah, the .ini for whichever version you're using.

                If you like a resolution that's different from your desktop res, you can also use:

                VideoMode=n
                Where n can be 1024, 1152, 1280, 1600, 1792

                The numbers correspond to the appropriate resolution (ie 1024 = 1024x768, 1280 = 1280x1024)
