It says in the games list here that AoM collectors ed has native widescreen support. I've got the collectors edition and I don't see any options for widescreen, nor are any widescreen resolutions presented to me in the select box. I have a Dell 2005FPW. Is there something I need to do to get AoM to recognize it?? |

I didn't even know there was a driver. Nothing that shipped with my monitor brought this to my attention. All I got was a documentation CD that had no mention of installing a driver. In any case, I have downloaded it and installed. Still no widescreen support showing in AoM though. |

Sry.. I realized that I had used AoE instead of AoM. The game I am referring to in this post is Age of Mythology. |

http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/ I'm deeply confused. When I installed AoM:CE on my laptop, it used my desktop res (1680x1050) automatically. Hence I assumed that it had native support. On my desktop, it didn't want to do that. :? There are a couple of ways to go about getting this game working in widescreen. Both are given in the above thread. |

Weird. I can't get windows to allow me to add those args to the shortcut. It keeps telling me that it's an invalid name. I can run it from a cmd prompt however. Seems to work fine there. Does anyone else find it strange in RTS games such as this, that you now have to move the mouse more to scroll the screen? I realize that it's due to the widescreen resolution, but right now it just feels like I have to work the mouse alot more to get to where I want to be on the screen. |

You can set up a batch file to run the game using those arguments. :) Acts like a shortcut if you place it on your desktop. ;) |
