BFBC2 on shows up to 3840x1050

Post by SurlyEngineer »

Battle Field Bad Company 2 only shows up to 3840x1050. I was wondering if theirs a way to put it up to 5040x1050? I have 3 22"s and TH2G.

If you're in Vista or 7, you probably need to run the game in DX9 mode. 5040x1050 is basically unavailable in DX10+ with TH2G...

Ohh ok, thanks.

How do I switch back to DX9 for this game only?

Go to the settings.ini file under my documents/games/BFBC2 (or something similar...)

change dxversion = AUTO to dxversion = 9.

Just a note... dx9 does provide a performance boost (pretty significant too) over dx10 / dx11, but the shadows are noticeably worse for me. That said, I think I'm sticking with dx9 even in eyefinity since it gives me the smooth 60+ fps I like in multiplayer.
