I can't get 1900 X 1200 to work in BF1942 :(

I made the changes in every video.con file I could find, but it still loads up at 800 X 600. I did notice that my game profile, named OMAC, is not showing up in any of the files or folders. All I can see are Custom and Default folders. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance :)

it didn't work for me initially either. but i uninstalled and reinstalled the game, applied that fix he showed you, then update the game with the latest patches and then it worked for me.

How do you know if the tweak works? Will it list 1920 x 1200 32 60 on the menu of resolutions?

When install the patch, an warning pops up about the read only file change to the video.con files. Do I press yes or no?

Thanks!

Nevermind it works....

It doesnt show the 1920 x 1200 32 60.
You have to select custom profile
---> options
---> video
---> resolution list : select 800 x 600 32 (cause thats the original but the resolution cant change how its listed but the video.con changes the setting.

But anyone know how to make image quality 100% ?

When I select 100 %, it always goes to custom settings and goes back to 80 %. What do I need to change in the video.con, videocustom.con, and videodefault.con files? Thanks

i fixed the texture quality also,

i needed to change qualitytexture( i think thats what it was) to 5 instead of 4. (1=20%, 2 = 40%, 3 = 60%, 4 = 80 %, 5 = 100%)

The game looks a lot better. Too bad theres no AA to smooth up the edges.

Change the path from your desktop- or startmenuicon. (I don't know the right word Razz)

"D:Battlefield 2142 DemoBF2142.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1920 +szy 1200

It works fine.

I cant get my new Profile to run at 1280 * 1024, funny thing is though, that Iv been here before and accomplished this. Probably close to a year ago I was able to do this with my main profile. I have 1 profile running this resolution (I play often in this profile). But I cant get it to run in a new profile that I just created for others to play on when Im not home.

I changed the Res in the Video.con file for the new custom profile to 1280 1024 32 75, identical to that of the Video.con file for my Own custom profile

but when I run the game and chose the new custom profile that Iv created, and start a game, the settings revert to 640 480 16 60, and they change themselves in the Video.con file as well

but when I select my origional custom profile and play in this, everything is as it should be. (for that profile only)

what am I forgetting now that I knew way back when I made my first profile?

and by the way, can I do a Search for Posts made by me? I know I can on most forums, but I dont think I can on this forum.

Sorry for waking an old topic but I've recently installed bf1942 on a new computer with Vista and I can't seem to get the game to run in 1680x1050.

I've been running the game on an old XP with no problem after altering the video.con and the rest of the files (from this topic http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/5444

But with Vista, that fix isn't working for me. Is it me or Vista that need a smack on the head, I don't know and I was hoping that any of you might have a solution to my problem.

1680x1050 is the native resolution on my monitor, hence I'd very much like to play the game on that res. :)
