Forum:Technical Question - Screen Resloution

Greetings.

I recently replaced my monitor, going from the old 4:3 layout monitor to a widescreen one. Before, Fallout 3 would always play with the black bars along the top and bottom of the screen to give it the widescreen effect. Now, with the widescreen monitor, the black bars are still there, so the display of the game is all stretched out and distorted.

Is there a way to adjust the resolution of the game to properly fit the monitor, display it without the black bars so that it fits?


 * Yeah. You need to go to the PC's preferences and change the format.--CNavellier 19:50, September 27, 2009 (UTC)

Eventually found out how, have to run the FalloutLauncher from the CD. That gives you the option to adjust the screen's resolution and any other graphical tweaks not avaliable in the in-game "display" options menu.
