Monitor Resolution..

Postby theduke » Sun Dec 16, 2007 11:26 am

I have a 22 inch wide screen monitor and I reset the resolution to 1680 X 1050. It makes my screens come out at 800X500 when I resize. Can having the resolution set so high cause problems? Here are some screens at the higher res.

Thanks in advance for any comments or help.

If you're monitor supports resolutions that high, it's perfectly fine to run FS at it...It's preferred that you run the sim at the highest possible resolution that your monitor supports...At least that's what I've been told :-/

Great looking screenies 8-)

That water has reflections but with the clouds up there makes the water look like crap.


Wii, wants his water ;D

Edit: I have a 22" and I run at full resolution without problems.
