WinEQ2 Font Distortion

[Bumamgar]

I use WinEQ2 as well with Windows 7 64bit, an nVidia GTX 260 without any problems, at a resolution of 1920x1200.

I have the following in my eqclient.ini

[VideoMode]
Width=1920
Height=1200
RefreshRate=60
BitsPerPixel=32
WidthWindowed=1920
HeightWindowed=1200
WinEQWidth=1920
WinEQHeight=1200
FullscreenWidth=1920
FullscreenHeight=1200
FullscreenRefreshRate=0
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
WindowedWidth=1920
WindowedHeight=1200

Adjust this as appropriate for your preferred resolution.

When I launch EQ from WinEQ2, it always starts out in a 'compressed' windowed mode. I leave it that way till I've logged in (at least to character select, if not all the way into world).

Once logged in, I press 'alt-shift-f' to switch WinEQ2 to 'fake fullscreen' mode. This basically causes it to make a window that's 1920x1200 and positioned such that the borders are off-screen.

After that, sometimes the task bar is covering EQ. To resolve that, I simply alt-tab away and then press the 'ctrl-alt-1' hotkey combination to switch back to EQ.

Works like a charm [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
