Remember, you don't need to change your monitor to this custom resolution, but the game will detect this custom resolution and literally "unlock" the resolution choice in game for you. The solution? Create a CUSTOM RESOLUTION at your desired game resolution (look at DW8 configure menu and find the res you want).

Since 1366x768 is NOT supported by DW8, the game maxed out my resolutions at my second option: 1024x768, instead of offering me the 1280x720 resolution which is in between. BUT, the game didn't have the option of 1280x720, it only displayed up to 1024x768 for me.Īfter spending ages on the problem, I discovered that there were only 3 resolutions available to my monitor (to check, right click desktop, go to resolutions and look at your slider options when changing res). If your monitor/videocard's NATIVE setting is NOT one of those listed resolutions, then the game will force you to use options that are worse than your resolutions.įor example, my native resolution is a 1366x768, which isn't supported by the game, however, 1280 x 720 has the same aspect ratio as 1366x768 and I wanted to use 1280x720. The configuration menu doesn't work and ingame the resolution options simply lock out at a certain point, you are literally unable to select your resolution.Īfter around a week or so, I have figured out a solution.Īs you may know, the game only supports a few resolutions (listed in the configuration menu) There are some people out there who find that they are unable to change the resolution of their game beyond a certain res.
