Default Having trouble with window size after install

I just installed p99 on windows 10 using Mac Bootcamp after the updated Mac OS doesn't allow wineskin to work any longer.

I got it all installed and working but I'm having trouble changing the resolution of the screen. I'm getting a very small 800x600 resolution on a 27 inch monitor with 3500x2100 (roughly) resolution.

I've changed the eqclient.ini file to include the following:

WindowedMode=TRUE
WindowedWidth=2560
WindowedHeight=1440
Width=2560
Height=1440
WidthWindowed=2560
HeightWindowed=1440

I saw that "WindowedMode=TRUE" was only something included in the Mac installation instructions, but if I don't use "WindowedMode=TRUE" and any resolution greater than 800x600, then it gives me a memory error.

I went into the options on login screen and changed it to the largest screen resolution of 1600x800. Even still on load up, it's still the tiny 800x600.

How can I fix this and have a bigger screen?

Did you install in program files, and are *not* running eqgame.exe as admin? If so, the eqclient.exe you're modifying under program files is not the one p99 is using. Instead, it's using the one under your user profile because programs can't write changes under program files unless they have admin rights.

Move your install out of program files.
