I currently have 1x3 landscape set up. The control center won't let me rotate to landscape... rotation is grayed out. It still won't let me rotate if go to basic mode, and only have one monitor enabled. The only time I get rotation as an option, is when I extend to another monitor. I've had a 3x1 ...

Oh, cool. How did you change the FOV?

Sounds like you changed the resolution, but not the FOV. That's exactly what I get when I change to 4320 x 900 resolution. What I need is how to change the FOV to something in the 135-140 degree range. If you know how to do that, pass it along.

Yeah, that's what I understand about unreal games. If I figure something out, I'll share it.

Trying to play the Tribes Ascend beta. Using 4320 x 900 for resolution. It accepts that resolution, but the FOV is messed up. How do I fix that? This is an Unreal Engine game if that helps. The one thing I tried was to enter /FOV 136 at the console, but it didn't take.

Thanks...

Yep, nice find. It didn't quite work, though. I added the -window variable as well. When I double clicked the short-cut, I got the small window that I was after (youtube size). But it crashed right before the game's main menu came up. I'll have to research why that happened. Might be Vista's fault ...

Tried the search, no help. The search in these phpbb forums isn't very good.

Thanks for the info, though.

cvars? I want 320x240 for recording with camtasia.

How do you set a custom resolution in Portal... or TF2 for that matter. Thanks.

I have a 1280x1024 LCD monitor. Is it possible to run at 640x512?

I tried 640 x 512 (half of 1280 x 1024) using the q3 methodology and the result didn't fill up the entire screen.

Why?
