The number of resolution options is very lacking. Is there a way to change the resolution to something other than the 4 options we're given?

Edit: I just found that I can manually change things in windowed mode. I guess that works, but I don't get why there aren't more menu options if different resolutions are technically supported.

You should be getting more than 4 options. Either the game has a problem getting the supported resolutions from Windows, or it is filtering out too many. One person stated that a particular resolution was absent by default, but if they temporarily changed their desktop resolution it was listed in the game.


You can manually set the resolution by editing the graphicsettings.lsx file in Wordpad, or other text editor, located in the folder:

C:/Users/ %username% /My Documents/Larian Studios/Dragon Commander

Look for the section

<node id="ConfigEntry">
<attribute id="MapKey" value="ScreenHeight" type="22" />
<attribute id="Type" value="0" type="5" />
<attribute id="Value" value="768" type="4" />
</node>
<node id="ConfigEntry">
<attribute id="MapKey" value="ScreenWidth" type="22" />
<attribute id="Type" value="0" type="5" />
<attribute id="Value" value="1024" type="4" />
</node>



Search for 'fake' near the start of the file to set the display mode (if both FakeFullscreen and Fullscreen are set to zero, it will be in Window mode).

<node id="ConfigEntry">
<attribute id="MapKey" value="FakeFullscreenEnabled" type="22" />
<attribute id="Type" value="0" type="5" />
<attribute id="Value" value="0" type="4" />
</node>
<node id="ConfigEntry">
<attribute id="MapKey" value="FrameCapFPS" type="22" />
<attribute id="Type" value="0" type="5" />
<attribute id="Value" value="60" type="4" />
</node>
<node id="ConfigEntry">
<attribute id="MapKey" value="Fullscreen" type="22" />
<attribute id="Type" value="0" type="5" />
<attribute id="Value" value="1" type="4" />
</node>
Thank you, that worked perfectly.
