Long overdue given your obvious fondness for this 'legendary title'.
What about 1360x768 ? :mrgreen:

My system has resisted all attempts to force 1360x768 mode. AFAIK the game works just fine with it, provided your system supports it, but mine doesn't.

Hey guys I just installed Alice on my Windows 7 pc and it works just fine! I want to make the game go widescreen though. I saw on this sight that you're supposed to mess with the config.cfg file in the base folder of the game directory. My problem is I don't have that file! I would post a pic of my base folder but I don't know how to. The only files I have in the base folder are: cgamex86.dll, fgamex86.dll, pak0.pk3, pak1_large.pk3, pak2.pk3, pak3.pk3, and pak4_english.pk3. What am I supposed to do? HELP PLZ!

Simply launch the game once and config.cfg will be created. I just installed and ran the demo in Win7 x64 and config.cfg is here.

Weird. Did you try changing some in-game display options (e.g resolution) ?

I changed it to the highest the game will allow, then I started playing it and thought, I want to play this in widescreen. So i looked it up here, saw that that I'm supposed to mess with the config.cfg. Didn't see it in the base file, then came here.

What could possibly be the reason why it's not there?

You're looking in the wrong spot. Windows 7 virtualises everything, so older applications will have a virtual store created for them.

Look here;

C:Users[YourUserNameHere]AppDataLocalVirtualStoreProgram Files (x86)EA GAMESAmerican McGee's AliceBase

Replace c: with the applicable drive letter (probably still c:)

Replace [YourUserNameHere] with the name of the account that you installed the game with.

Edit the config.cfg there and it should do the trick.
