Does Zero Hour have wide screen support?

[klagga 0]

I did a search and didn´t find anything on this.

 

I´m planning on getting a Samsung SyncMaster 243T monitor, http://www.bytesector.com/data/bs-article.asp?ID=407, and a video card supporting this resolution.

 

Hardware aside, has EA optimised Zero Hour for correct wide screen imaging?

 

Thanks for any help!

Zero Hour only supports standard desktop resolutions like 800x600, 1024x768 and so on. There is no ingame setting to change for widescreen monitors.

You could try and force the game to use a non-standard screen size by editing the Options.ini file found in the My Documents\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data folder. Just open the file in a text editor and find the line that looks like this.....

Resolution = 1024 768

Change the numbers to what ever resolution you want to test. It may have some strange effect on the game, it will probably look weird or the game may even fail to load. If problems occur simply change that line in the Options.ini file back to what it was before.

So if I make the standard setting 1600x1200, how will it look like on a wide screen monitor? Black areas at the left and right?

 

Thanks!

Not really sure, the only way to find out is to test it I guess.

Your best bet for this would actually be asking the Lion at the DEN. His new monitor is widescreen and he got tghem all working fine on there.
