EHM07 shows up in left corner

Post by Fletch »

I'm currently running Windows 7 64bit and a resolution of 2560x1440 and when I boot it up, instead of stretching the game it just shows up in the top left corner - it's really small and a strain on the eyes.

Is there any solution to this? I don't seem to have the option to change resolution, which obviously wont go up to mine but at least make it bigger if it doesn't wanna stretch.

I would also prefer running it in windowed mode but -window in properties doesn't do anything.

I'm fine with a stretched game if that is a possible solution to this problem, as long as the proportions are alright.

There's a Windowed mode option in the preferences, but I don't think you can change the size. The available options are 1024x768 or full screen.

Okay - so the window is static when its in windowed mode? i.e. not dragable to increase size?

Then I guess my best option is fullscreen stretched? Then I need to find a solution to the window appearing in the top left corner only taking up 1/6 of the screen or something.

Yeah, you can't expand it but you should be able to move it on the screen though. And 1/6 seems awfully small... :-k

Sounds like some kind of problem stretching to full size window. Not sure what to do about it. Maybe someone else can help you out.

Perhaps you could try changing your screen resolution to something else? Or something along those lines. Just to see if it works out differently.

Oh well - I just run it in windowed mode in native resolution - it's a bit small but it's alright, it was a lot more annoying when it was in the corner too.

You're better off running it in windowed mode. The text gets rather blurry when playing in fullscreen mode.

The fullscreen issue will relate to your video card drivers.
