hi all its my bday today and i got this game from my girlfriend.

she knows how much i love cycling and i played 08 for ages and all i want to do is play this today!

but i have a problem! Sad

i want to play this game on my plasma but i can only display resolutions of 1280x720 (720p) or 1920x1080 (1080p) in fullscreen mode.

i cannot currently get into the game because my display can not display the in game resolution, i tried the game in windowed mode and it doesn't have an option to display 1280x720 or 1920x1080 at all Sad

is there a way to change the resolution out of game thru a settings file or thru a force command on the shortcut of the game?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

First of all happy birthday Wink

Now, PCM is a bit of a dick when it comes to resolutions. It believe the max it can put out is 1680x1050 (16:10 ratio), so i believe you are out of luck sadly. But since both 720 and 1080p work, it at least should work with other 16:9 ratio resolutions. If you could force the TV into 1080p while running a slightly lower resolution, the quality might not be perfect, but at least it would run.

But im still looking into this so hang on or something...

thanks for the suggestion, i found the solution when i actually started a game in windowed mode and then PCM created the folder for the game in my documents.

in my documents there are files in the config folder.

i opened the grapicsconfig.xml and options.xml files with notepad and i changed the display resoution in there. i can now play in 720p or 1080p or whatever other resolution i want.

hope this helps others having the problem Smile
