C&Cnet client screen resolution bug plus mods using it.

[Mr.Allar]

I have problem with C&Cnet client using mods all force native screen resolution witch is 3840x2160 and i cant change it since it reverts manual change in ini file back to native and only way i can use custom screen resolution is by making ini read only. I add pictures of my problem i only hope that there is a way to fix this.

This might be a permissions issue. Have you tried running the client as admin?

[Mr.Allar]

Yes i have but no change.

[Mr.Allar]

I updated drivers plus reinstalled thous as well still no change.

[dkeeton]

Are you using a virtual machine?

[Mr.Allar]

Sorry but no. I play thous on main machine still i have no clue how this happened exepct os is windows 10 so i guess updates mess up things or something and no help form their part either. Because of this mess i cant play mp mod with my friends since native screen resulution makes thing tiny no joke. But if theres a way to force client to run in choosen resulution with ini edit then no problem since this can be made read only but where.

Can you do a sfc /scannow https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929833/use-the-system-file-checker-tool-to-repair-missing-or-corrupted-system

[Mr.Allar]

Done tryed no errors, no drive bugs either. Plus i keep every thing up to date to avoid problems  in the first place. It is like some is trying to kill life support of good old game with updates. No way to fix even old drives wont bring back screen resulution options any more it worked on my old laptop but not any more. Windows 10 is latest build.

you did an sfc scan in 4 minutes?

[dkeeton]

Do you have all the resolutions when you launch clientogl.exe?

[Mr.Allar]

For some od reason that has but main exe to launch mod or other mods doesnt have it curious. Any ideas how this is possible just wondering since i didnt know about this exe at all.

clientogl.exe uses OpenGL for the backend. By default the client launches clientdx.exe which is using DirectX.

[Mr.Allar]

How to make switch to launch with this openGL exe since other wise i am stuck with directX one and read only ini. Plus another problem with this clientogl.exe is that no sound.

[dkeeton]

Just make a shortcut to clientogl.exe or change the shortcut that you normally use.

[Mr.Allar]

Ok thanks temporary fix until theres real fix for this in windows 10 or who knows what causes that problem that programs cant switch betvene direcX and openGL.
