I installed 1.15.0 using the instructions here:

https://SimHQ.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3784632/EECH_1_15_Installation_problem

and I can run it in 1280x960.

Anything higher, regardless if I pick Automatic, Primary Display Driver, or the actual Video Card name, it crashes.

I have a widescreen HD monitor and I would like to run it at the minimum 1600x1024 to the highest resolution of 1920x1080.

At 1280x960 on such large monitor, it just look weird and the letters look huge.

But then I installed 1.16. on a new separate fresh clean EECH install and that I can run at higher resolution of 1920x1080.

Is 1.15.0 just not set up to run at higher resolution or is there something in the EECH.ini or Game.cfg that I need to check or uncheck?

Thank you.

Im 100% sure higher than 1280 works in 1.15 .
you delete game.cfg?
what graphic card and windows you have?
if win10 try Right click on the main game executable, and in the compatibility tab choose to enable /disable "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings".

Am I suppose to delete game.cfg?

Using Windows 7 and GEForce GTX1050.

I just saw your edited reply and I disabled the display scaling.

Does it matter under device selection if I pick automatic, primary display driver or GEForce GTX 1050?

Let me delete the game.cfg and try again with display scaling disabled and device selection on automatic.

Update:

still crashes past 1280x960 with game.cfg deleted, display scaling disabled, device selection on any of the 3 choices.

Should I now to into compatibility and check to run it as Windows 7?

But like I said, 1.16 runs fine in higher resolution and looks great too.

Sounds like something in 1.15 and not with my video card and computer.

Upgrade to 1.15.4 if you like to use Version 1.15. It's the most finished one.

The files are still arround here in the forum. Search for clickable cockpit mod.

Cheers Viper

I am not finding that 1.15.4.

Thanks Banita!

I like to have both of them:

15 and 16.

Each one have different challenges and level of difficulty and graphics.

I think the color on the choppers in 15 are prettier.

16 is kind of dull, mostly gray and dark.

I uninstalled EECH completely. Then reinstall a clean fresh one from the CD. Then install 1.15..0. and then 1.15.2 and 1.15.4.

Still won't go past 1280x960 choosing either Automatic or Primary Display Driver, with or without display scaling checked or unchecked.

I will just play it the way it is in 1280x960.

Thanks for all your help.

No that didn't work either.

It's stuck at 1280x960.

If I want to take advantage of my monitor and video card maximum resolution,

I will have to play 1.16.

I do appreciate your help and your time.

Maybe a bit late, but just in case - older EECH versions supports up to 2048x1536 resolution. Probably game has conflicts with latest drivers, as 1.15 was released in 2012

you can try to invert these values in EECH.INI (one per game launch):

fs=
notnl=
eads=
3dreset=1 (this one equal to game.cfg removal)

if it still does not help, only option left is set proper resolution in latest version and copy game.cfg to the old one
