Hi everyone,

Sorry if this has been asked before - I searched but couldn't find anything.

I recently got the BF2 Complete Collection disc and am using the command line to force a custom resolution. BF2 and the Booster pack maps work fine, but when I try to join a SF server, the game has to change to the SF executable, which means my resolution goes back to the default.

Is there any way I can change the resolution in SF from within BF2? Any files I can edit to permanently change the res?

Thanks very much, and sorry again if this has been covered 1000 times.

I'd like to know if this is possible as well.

Right now I use shortcuts for all my mods and SF to avoid the res. change.

As far as I know you can't do anything.

If you want to play SF start SF from it's own executable :(

Add the command line for your custom res to each exe. Then launch the required game from its exe.

hey ollie26 this might be a little off topic, but i noticed in your sig, that your psu is 250w. with that kind of rig, (especially with an 8800gtx) you'll need a much better psu. I recommend at least 500w.

Otherwise, before you know it, your system will be torn apart.
