Oscar, setting up the custom resolution was EASY.

i have the 50 inch version of the DLP sammy u guys are talking about.. and set to 1280x720 with no overscan.. you just have to make sure that you have your TV set to "wide PC" and not "wide TV" with wide PC it's not stretched-1280 720 with no overscan -- i'm pretty sure its the same on yours' ..just try it on your remote control.

Quick tech question for ya guyd that own the new sammy DLP....I just bought a new Samsung HL-P4663W Widescreen DLP tv...great screen and all but when I hook up my PC via DVI-D to the TV there is slight underscan less than an inch around the PC display...basically a thin black border all around. do you guys also have this???Im primarily using a 1280 x 720 resolution...is there any way to make the display fit the whole screen and not have that little border? maybe using powerstrip? ( technically you can get rid of the border by using the different modes the tv controller offers but those give you nasty overscan)

thanks, would love to hear your suggestions

take care

Don't know if there is a better answer to this elsewhere yet, but I can temporarily get a custom resolution by binding a key to an Unreal console command - no amount messing around with ini files did me any good.

In the splintercell2user.ini file change the binding for an unused key, eg.

F2=

change to :

F2=setres 1360x768x32

During the game (ie. when Sam is on screen, not the menu) pressing F2 resets the resolution. I need to press F2 every time I restart - but I can live with that. Haven't tried with any resolution other than 1360x768 but no reason why it shouldn't work.

Okay, it worked, at least for a while, and it looked awesome!!!
problem is my computer keeps crashing every time i play it(say, 5 mins into the game, 1900X1200, I can run Farcry, HL2 at this RES for hours), and what's the catch with no "non-power of two render support" detected, is it the problem? :shock: :shock: :( :? :?:

yeah this wrks fine for me...still have to increase the FOV abit. I'm not sure if i've done it correctly though. I just set it to 100.0 because someone else have mentioned it before on this forum.(my res is 1440x900)

how do u find out the correct FOV?

thanx

I find this thread confusing.

I am going to assume we only have a temp fix with binding?

Ini does not work?


So therefore I will use a HEX edit for the DR. I guess.
