Potential ultra wide crash - 5120x1440 #359

Open GrantBartlett opened 2 years ago

GrantBartlett commented 2 years ago

Is it possible the client is crashing out on ultra wide resolution or was this something unrelated?

Looks like they sovled it by doing the following:

  • Edit .INI file to use 2560x1440
  • Manually resize the monitor to 2560x1440> - Edit .INI file to use 2560x1440
  • Manually resize the monitor to 2560x1440

Just following up on this. I'm getting the same crash on my machine with an ultrawide monitor that's 5120x1440. Following @GrantBartlett's link to the forum post, if I changed my monitor settings to 2560x1440 temporarily, I can actually launch the CNCNet client. I changed the client to run in windowed mode and kept it at 2560x1440, then changed my monitor back to 5120x1440 and relaunched the client. Everything worked like it was supposed to.
