Do you still have UAC turned on? If so turn it off and it should reduce this type of issue.Originally posted by joeb004:
Well, I finally got widescreen mode working. It looks like it was a Vista "issue". If I run the program from the desktop icon and have it set to "Run as Administrator", then I get my widescreen view. Without that, I just have the regular view, regardless of what I have set in the conf.ini. This makes no sense to me, but thats what does the trick.
"The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.[Europe], under pretence of governing they have divided their nations into two classes, wolves and sheep. If once [the people] become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress, and Assemblies, judges and governors shall all become wolves. " - Thomas Jefferson
Could I suggest that once the initial changes to the conf.ini are done to ensure widescreen, use IL2 Stab, http://mission4today.com/index.php?n...=search&sa=988 to avoid repeated visits to things in the conf.ini. This programme allows changes to be made without the need to go into IL2 setup or the conf.ini for most user settings.

I'll add that in. Thanks Sid.
Helpful thread,problem i have 22 w/s monitor,every time i set my w/s it goes back to 640x480 16 bit,Any idea what the resolution should be on a 22 inch W/S monitor?
Cheers
what model is it? Its highly possible that the resolution maybe 1680x1050.
Did you make all the changes you needed in the setup.exe and in Il2 itself and then edit the conf.ini to get the custom resolution?
Woo-Hoo!Cheers WOLFMondo,it looks blooming great!
Interesting, what black panels??
I have fairly new 22" LG wide screen,has 1680x1050 resoulution capabilities,with screen auto adjust, and with having IL2's resoulution set at its highest, it looks great, no black panels, or screen cut off at all.
I am on a XP OS, if that has any bearing,don't know.
Cheers.
I think the term black panels refers to the black bars that appear when playing IL2 when you've set your resolution from within the conf.ini to a custom resolution but haven't set EnableResize SaveAspect both to 0. However the black bars will always appear in the initial loading/splash screen when booting the game up.
When is patch 4.09 comming out?
Might be best to use the search function
