Unfortunately I'm at work, so I don't remember where it's at, but there should be some sort of options file or ini file that stores those settings (I remember altering it myself at one point, so I know it's there). Once you find that folder, just look for something like resolution height and width, or something along those lines, and just replace the numbers with your proper resolution.


Check either the main directory, or in your documents folder, or under local in your apps folder. Those are the three places SC2 stores files. When I get home I'll try to remember to check and post it here when I find it.

Hmmm i managed to find the file in Documents with the name "Variables" but still nothing with resulution in it.. Here what it contains

creepnormalmap=1

Is that the correct file :S ?

Gamewiz

That's odd... I think that's it but I'm not seeing the correct listing for height and width... I'll be home in a few hours, so if no one helps you by then I'll see what I can do.

Ok that's really weird. Just checked and that is the right file. Here's mine:

Mine gives an option for width and height... So I really have no clue why yours is like that.
