Re: Resolution Problem B24
I got the same error message after changing the resolution of B24 for the first time, but figured out why.
Initially the game started with 640x480 and "Double Pixel Size" in Windowed mode (Can't explain better ATM, I'm at work, but the option shows up on the screen resolution selection page - the button says something like "x1", "x2" and "fullscreen"), basically resulting in a "800x600" Window, but doubled pixel size. (1 pixel becomes 4)
I have my Screen Resolution in Windows set to 1680x1050 which is the maximum my monitor can take and after changing the game resolution to 1680x1050 I got the same error message.
Reason for it was that the "x2" was still checked (would have resulted in a "3360x2100" Resolution because of the "x2" Setting), so in order to change the resolution and set it to full-screen I did the following :
- Start up Cortex Command (it will start in 640x480, Double Pixel, Windowed mode)
- Go in the Options and set it to "Full Screen", then exit the game
- Start up Cortex Command again (it will start in 640x480, Single Pixel, Full Screen mode, but stretched)
- Go in the Options and set it to your monitors native Resolution, then exit the game
- Start up Cortex Command again (it will start with the resolution you set up, Single Pixel, Full Screen mode)
I guess you can set it to "Single Pixel" in "Windowed Mode" first too and then change the resolution and select full screen, but the above method at least worked for me.
It appears that it's currently not possible to change the resolution and full-screen option at the same time, but doing it in 2 separate steps worked for me.
Sorry about the lengthy post, but I hope I can transfer what I am trying to say.
