CoD2 problem.

maxping · Jan 24, 2007, 19:53:27

I have just started using a TFT monitor and set the CoD2 options to the native resolution of 1280 X 1024 , Refresh at 75Hz (also tried it at 60Hz) and the Aspect ratio to "Auto".

I can play fine and it looks great, my problem starts when i close the game and enter the same server again,the settings have gone back to 1024 X 768 , refresh 60Hz and Aspect "auto".

These are the settings i used to run my CRT at , has anyone any ideas why it will not keep the first settings ?

The game still looks great at 1024 so its not a big problem i just cannot understand why it will not keep the higher settings.

TIA.

I've pondered this very question before and unfortunately i did not find the answer. But as if by magic one day, it happened to remember the settings i wanted it had and they have stuck ever since!

Sorry i can't help on this one!

Is it still looking for your old CRT? ....... have you changed the monitor drivers? Look in 'Display' and see.

I deleted the Samsung CRT's driver the TFT didn't come with a disc and shows as plug and play .

I haven't checked, but it may pay to have a look here.

Sorted (i think) i went into the main / players / my name folder and edited the config_mp cfg file to the settings i want and it seems to work.

Good thinking! Glad you got it sorted

Now, don't forget, keep your head down ...........

Old I know but for future reference.

Adding "-w 1280 -h 1024" to the target line on the shortcut should also work. Or launch properties if the game has that option.

Slightly off topic but something us CoD2`ers might be interested in.

Apparently an unofficial expansion pack is being developed for CoD2. Its call Rise of Resistance and features action for the French and Polish resistance. Have a look at
