Hello Smile

I bought a new monitor that goes to 1680x1050 resolution and for some reason bf2 won't let me select this resolution?
I can only select 1280x1024.
Does anyone know how i can change it to get the maximum 1680x1050 my monitor supports please?

Thanks Smile

Any use man? And yeah i think the fix posted only fixes the FOV value, not the actual resolution although I cant confirm, It seems to be a simple shortcut parameter fix though

Hi m8 Smile

I've tried the parameter fix and the game loads up find but when i go to video settings in game i still can't select 1680x1050 Sad
I tried the widescreen fixer but no resolutions that can be changed.
Oh well never mind I'll keep looking Smile

You cant select it from the menu... Add this to your shortcut of BF2/BF2142:"+menu 1 +widescreen 1 +szx 1680 +szy 1050" without the ""

Then the game will run in 1680x1050, if you need confitmation... Make a print screen ingame and check the dimensions of that...
