Post by Bye~ »

I get this message on my screen when I go to start tron, what's wrong? And what can I do to fix in?

Try pressing f to get out of fullscreen mode, then use arma's menus to select a resolution your monitor supports.

(I hate this trend of monitors being too lazy to display really low resolutions…)

640x480 is not really low :x Besides, it's the OS's and driver's job to supply arma with a valid list of video modes. Grumble, grumble, get off ma lawn.

Well, I've seen quite a few monitors that claim to support legacy resolutions they actually don't, so it's probably not even the operating system's fault, no matter how tempting that might be…

It most certainly is! :x Just the thought of 640x480 makes me shiver. *Doesn't get off Z's roof :)*

For desktop purposes it surely is very low… I can barely use 1024×768 screens now if I really have to.

But some old games insist on 320×240, and playing them in windowed mode just sucks.

Agree with all that. But it's still very very low. ;)

Unicode is no longer cool now that it's in the game.
