Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory

I've already tried setting the resolution in the splintercell3.ini, but after I set it the game will not run fullscreen. The startfullscreen option is set to true, and alt + enter doesn't work.
Anyone else have any luck?

Yeah ... I got it to work ... :)
Here is what I did ... don't know if all of it needs changing but mine works ...

In the SplinterCell3.ini
Under the heading ...[WinDrv.WindowsClient] ... I changed ...
FullscreenViewportX=1920
FullscreenViewportY=1200
and under the heading ... [LauncherResolutions] ... I changed ...
res5=1920x1200

Then I also changed the resolution and the FOV settings in the SplinterCell3User.ini
Under the heading ... [Engine.EPCGameOptions]
Resolution=1920x1200
and under the heading ... [Engine.PlayerController]
DesiredFOV=100.0
DefaultFOV=100.0

A Screenshot ...

Hope this helps ... :)

That screenshot looks great but I still cannot get it to run full screen. Only in a window.

I don't know what to suggest ... may be you inadvertently altered something.
Have you tried re-installing ?

I could post my ini file content so that you could copy and past into yours if you like ...

Let me know... :)

I got it to work with your instructions. I just can't run it in 1200x768 (which is what I was trying to do). I can only run it at 1680x1050.

i guess it's 1280x768, but can you get this res under windows ?

No I really mean 1200x768. You can set a custom resolution in the nVidia drivers. Works great for all my other widescreen gaming needs. :D

Excuse me, but how do you guys have it when its not even released yet? :?:

Your "excuse me " bit/tone kinda suggests you think something dodgy is going on.... which in turn suggests that you are judging people your own standards ... :wink:

Anyway ...
Your excused ... its the demo ... get it here ... :D
