View Full Version : Monitor settings keep getting messed up

Hello,

I have a problem with playing worms. I first noticed it when I started playing again last week after some months.

I play the Sold Out Version of W:A using ProSnooper. When I host or join a game the settings of my monitor change. So when I'm on my desktop the screen "fits" in my monitor, when I'm in the gamelobby, it doesn't.
When the game starts, the settings are different again!
Putting in the correct values during a game only helps for 1 game. When I pop back to desktop and start a new game, the settings are messed up again (Always the same screwed up values).

Minimizing also makes the setting change back to the messed up values..


I thought the problem could've been the fact that my C: drive and my desktop were flooded.. I cleaned them up using the Software prog. in the configuration screen. I also Defragmentated my pc..

I've searched this forum and worms2d.info for sollutions which I couldn't find.


Is there anyone here who can help me out? ( I'm a dummy with computers. Fancy terms will not be understood [; )


Thnx in advance,
SBL

Sounds like your monitor isn't saving the settings across various resolutions. The W:A front-end (menus, lobby etc.) are in 640x480, and you can set the in-game resolution on the game options screen.

Problem solved...

For some reason the in-game resolution was set to 1152x864. Which resulted in problems with not saving settings.
Normally it was (and now it is) on 1024x768. Now the in-game settings are saved. The lobby settings still aren't.... but that's not a real problem since it fits. (I only see a black square around the lobby.

Thanks for the fast reply.
