A resolution ?, but different

[MichelG]

Hi everyone,

I'm yet another person having problems with the resolution on his laptop. I can only run it in 800 X 600. I've read most of the threads on the board about how to manually set the resolution for the game by editing the civilization3.ini file. The problem is, I've tried this and when I run the game I still get the too-big screen. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, here's the last few lines of my .ini file:

WindowsFileBox=0
SFX Volume=127
Music Volume=127
Main Volume=127
GridOn=1
MapZoom=0
KeepRes=1

Is this right?

Thanks for the help!

The minimum requirements are 1024 x 768. You can force it higher, but I don't think that it works at lower resolutions.

Are you saying that your laptop's max resolution is 800 x 600? If so, you're probably screwed.
