Hello,

ive bought 2 19" Widescreen Monitors a few weeks ago. I usually play
WC3 in a window, cause then i can swtich to other tasks.

now i found the report, to set the game on "widescreen" mode...

i tried it, but i dont understand....

If i set the res in the reg to 1440*900 (my native resolution)
the game (fullscreened) just looks like if i choose 1024*768

What is the "sence" of changing the registry resolution - it
causes the same strech like choosing another resolution...

btw: if u change the res, and look into the graphic options, game changes
them back to 640*480 ...

regards,
dognose

Your monitor or drivers are scaling them, or the game itselfs scaling them. If you let do the game the scaling i think you get sharper pictures and stuff like that.

You need to go in start->run
enter here regedit
Then search HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\Warcraft III\Video
And edit the height and width Wink

There should be a radio button to switch between hex and decimal values. Check the option for decimal.
