Aspect Ratio

Post by Ells » Sat Oct 27, 2007 6:34 pm

Hey guys,
I have a 24" Acer AL2416W monitor with 16:10 aspect ratio set to 1920x1200

Lomac is also set to 1920x1200, however the cockpit and hud are stretched.

Can anyone tell me the figure to pump into the graphics.cfg file

This is current:

Code: Select all

DisplayMode
{
    resolution = {1920, 1200};
    bpp = 32;
    fullscreen = 1;
    aspect = 1.333333373;
    Interface
    {
        resolution = {1920, 1200};
        bpp = 32;
        fullscreen = 1;
        aspect = 1.333333373;
    }
    Simulation
    {
        resolution = {1920, 1200};
        bpp = 32;
        fullscreen = 1;
        aspect = 1.333333373;
    }
    AVI
    {
        resolution = {640, 480};
        fullscreen = 0;
        aspect = 1.3333;
    }
I've changed the figure to 2.33384 which I got from an aspect ratio calculator but it's stretched even more.

Thanks for your help.

Change to first three aspect ratios from 1.333333373 to 1.6


Remember that everytime you change your settings in game you will have to re-edit this file as it resets itself to default

This is very annoying, but true! Each time you change any in-game setting (not only graphics, but anything under options), the values in your graphics.cfg file will default back to an AR of 1.33.

To get your AR simply divide your resulotion width by its height.
