Hi Guys,

Is it possible to run this sim with 3440x1440 (or 2560 x 1080) resolution?

It seems the game setting can not go more than 1920 x 1080.
Is there a way to increase the resolution?
Please advise.

Does it not let you select the higher resolution? I can run it at the highest res for my laptop 1600 x 900.

I only use one monitor so I do not use eyefinity or nvidia surround.
Do I have to?

I have a stupid question (probably).

At these higher resolutions are you still only seeing the "Front View" ?

Or, do you get a bit of the side views as well ?

which higher resolutions do you mean?

I can only use 1920x1080 in the game even though my monitor resolution is 3440x1440.
so I get black bar on both sides.

I can set the full resolution of 3440 x 1440, when using Version 1.16.
It is available in the options menu.

But when using Version 1.15, resolution seems to be limited to 1920 x 1200 on my machine.

I think, EECH V 1.15 supports only DirectX 7, which is limited to 2048 x 1536 maximum.
V 1.16 supports DirectX 9(at least partially), which allows higher resolutions.

it's true that 1.16 uses D3D9 and supports large resolutions.
for some reason, game can't get all supported resolutions. you can try to use 3dreset key in EECH.ini, or run the game in window mode.

thanks for the reply Rainhilf & thealx.

so there is something wrong with my setting since I can not detect 3440x1440.
how do you use the 3dreset key?
