How can I get 1280x1024 resolution? I had it before, but now it is gone since I switched PC's. I didn't do anything special to get it before, it was just thar. Not it is gone.

I have all the latest patches and updates, and I use windows xp.

WA can only use the resolution modes that are available in Windows through your graphics card driver.
If your card and/or monitor doesn't support the resolutions, WA can't use it.
Try updating your drivers!


That said, if you can switch to 1280*1024 in Windows, you should be able to use it in WA.
Try a clean re-install of WA.

Try tweaking the DisplayXSize and DisplayYSize values under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team17SoftwareLTD\Worms Armageddon\Options .

But what we need to edit there? Can u make a small guide? Or just make a .reg file, and we just double-click to them...thx.

The values represent the resolution setting. Just set them to the desired resolution - Width (X) and Height (Y) separately. Make sure to switch to "Decimal" when entering the new values. Let us know if this works.

I edited it: 1024 to 1280 and 768 to 1024, and still it doesn't work. When I go to the settings it display the maximum resolution being 1024x768, and not 1280x1024.

make sure you set 1280 to x and 1024 to y, and not the other way around

Also, don't go into the settings again. Just play, and it should be fine.

What OS do you use? Also, sorry for being obvious, but your graphic card and monitor has to support the resolution.
