Hello again,

my Sm215tw arrived. i was able to get bf2 working at 1680x1050 using the command line. But I'm unhappy with losing the top and bottom.

As I posted above i would be happy playing at 1400x1050 - within scope of my monitor - but I see no option to select this on BF2. Only 1380x1024 or 1600x1200 (which obviously doesn't fit my screen).
So I used to command line to set to 1400x1050 - but the game just crashes to desktop.

I Noticed that in ATI CCC 1360x1024 and 1680x1050 are supported but NOT 1400x1050 - which is what i want and think I should be able to play at (with black bars of course)

Does anybody know how to had a custom res ie 1400x1050 to ATI CCC 6.8 ?
I know Nvidia forceware has the option but is there a similar feature in ATI CCC ? I cant for the life of me find it?

So for now i'll play in 1360x1024 (i slight improvement over 1280x1024) but I want 1400x1050.

Any ideas guys - thanks in advance

BTW the Samsung sm215tw is a great monitor :D

I used both the shortcut hack and the FOV exe file hack together and it works. :)

The 1920 x 1200 resolution doesn't show up in BF2. It doesn't matter.

have you played online yet? how does pb react? can you join ranked servers?

PB boots me after a minute. Can only use it in non-PB IPs. Very few. :(

Hi,

This is my first post.
I got a Samsung 940BW TFT (my first TFT), I set the BF2 resolution paramater via the shortcut properties (1440x900). Everything works fine so far.

But i need 75Hz.
What do i have to do to get 75Hz instead of 60Hz ?

greetz,

Why do you need 75hz? I say you are fine with 60hz since we a talking lcd technology. It will do just fine whether it is a fast pased FPS or just desktop.

Because the speed sensation in games suffer from it... It feels like you are going slower... I am stuck with 60 hertz since this LCD can´t do 75 hertz but if you run racing games and others you really benefit from running 75 hertz if you lcd can handle it :)

I'm sorry, but wherever you dreamed up that little nugget is so out of whack it isn't even funny. In fact, this is misinformation pure and simple.

The refresh rate has absolutely no effect on TFT panels. Seriously. Go use Google. Find out.

I have to use Vsync enabled, so my fps stuck @ 60fps. Thats why i need 75Hz :) But its already solved, refresh rate override did it.

Any news on the fix from Paddy and Punkbuster ???
