Resolution?

[OpallNotten]

When I go out of full screen and into windows mode, I can't change my resolution.....

I play in 1920*1080 Full
When I switch into windows, it puts me at 1280*960 and will not let me change it....

I can't play in that lol.

Additional Info:
I just got my gaming PC wiped clean. I had to re-install DDo.
I have multiple accounts I enjoy playing all at once, but with this resolution issue I am having, I find doing this less enjoyable

Any ideas on how to fix this?

You can manually resize your screen while in windowed mode. Just click the corners and drag them to make it bigger.

Very true. However, The resolution it makes me be in makes everything really large on the screen. I get my hotbars taking up half my screen

Is it changing the resolution of your monitor to 1280*960?

There is an option in graphics to change the windowed resolution, that doesn't work for you?

I played around with the actual computer resolution screen options a bit. Had a small stroke because it made everything go half way off my screen. I couldn't even shut the PC down properly....had to kill the power But when it restarted, it was all fine. When I loaded into DDO to continue playing around with my problem, my problem was magically fixed?


Everything is better now. Wish I could explain the steps I did to fix it, but I have no idea what happened.

Thanks guys and I am sorry

Well, glad for you it all worked out in the end Computers can do...scary stuff sometimes...like that one time I booted up and it told me it couldn't find any operating system...ahhh good times.

But anyway! Not exactly sure what happened but here's what I usually do to get a game in windowed mode (works on most games)
1. Start the game in fullscreen mode
2. Press alt+enter (shortcut to change to windowed mode, works on MOST games)
3. Resize window as needed. Resolution of the game should scale to the size you decide to make the window.

I've had problems on the previous MMO I played and using their ingame "play windowed" option. Might have just happened to you too.
