Screen Problem

Post by Kruzr »

Ok, I have a small problem with my screen when running MTM and CIV3. Just these two games for some reason. The problem is that the screen is a bit wider then it should be. I am losing about 4 pixels on both sides. Example: BEST LAP where the back of the letter B is missing--off screen. :lol:

I am using a higher end Flat Panel Monitor with latest drivers, Nividia G4, and DX9.

if your monitor is like mine then just close in the ZOOM option and adjust the screen width and hieght from there. i had to do that to fit the desktop correctly when i got it new.

Yep, I have controls right on the front of my monitor. I can adjust mtm in gmae and it doesn't effect anything else, like the desktop.

For Civ 3 just add KeepRes=1 to your ini file and then the game will run at the same resolution as your desktop. For mtm2 just adjust your monitors overscan.
