    Ok I guess I know.

    You're on steam. And you can't get more than 700x500 (I really don't know if that resolution exists.. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> ). And you need to change it back to atleast 1024x768 but you somehow can't. I don't know there should be something in the steam directory where you can change that. But I don't know steam very well. I'll give this a look.
  • ExtremeExtreme Join Date: 2003-12-10 Member: 24225Members
    Omg dude, chill out and stop posting. Your resolution wasn't your original problem (not being able to see the top of the screen), it's a monitor setting. If you hit one of the other buttons on your monitor it will bring up a menu and you can change the screen width and height. As for your black monitor I don't know.
  • grim2grim2 Join Date: 2003-12-09 Member: 24186Members
    cheers and anyway my normal re is 1024 by 700 600 i think i was just trying to see the witing on who was my com and how much res i had :'( and i got this
  • grim2grim2 Join Date: 2003-12-09 Member: 24186Members
    ok good idea all i need now is for someone to guid me through the process of clicking on options getting to video clicking on 1024 by 600 and clicking apply now can anyone do that :?
  • ExtremeExtreme Join Date: 2003-12-10 Member: 24225Members
    Did you change your resolution for everything, or just in the game settings? When are you getting this black screen? If you changed it on your comp, just right click on your desktop, go to properties, then go to the settings tab and their will be a slider that you can change the resolution. If it is your in game resolution, start the game, go to options, video modes, and change the resolution.
  • grim2grim2 Join Date: 2003-12-09 Member: 24186Members
    ok i changed it in game and the only way to change it back is to go into game options then get to video 1024 by 600 resoloution in the pitch darkness of the game cause there is no other way to do it unless someones smarter to me??

    **EDIT** And While I was busy writing this, 5 more posts have got in between me and the last one I saw... Consider this outdated...

    I've met 10 year olds who still knew when to wrap their paragraphs and start a new one, and that to me is more impressive than playing games at an early age. Good writing is an important skill, sure it takes some effort, but if you try to learn it, or just use it more often, it suddenly doesn't take as much effort. Ok: End Rant...

    Anyway what you are trying to say is that you turn your resolution to 700 by 500, and you get a black screen because your resolution is... too low? Why don't you just try a normal resolution, I mean you are a gamer, aren't you gonna try to get the best resolution you can out of your moniter? Like 1024 by 768 or 1280 by 1024? Why settle for 700 by 500, I mean that isn't even a resolution with a 4:3 ratio...

    Try taking this to the Tech Support forums, I am sure they can help you out.

  • ExtremeExtreme Join Date: 2003-12-10 Member: 24225Members
    If it is just the game resolution and not your normal, I would just reinstall (if you have any custom models or anything, just copy those somewhere else, and put them back after you install again).

    Well good luck grim32. I think you will get the help you are looking for on the Tech Support forums though. Just make sure they understand the problem clearly ok?

    Yes. Indeed.
    Because you have been playing since you were 2 (and I strongly doubt that) you are superior to him. Because you beat Doom.
    Not talking about that you leave about 2-3 minutes between every post.
    Buddy, this is not a chat room. Replies will not come immediately like everyone has just been waiting for to you to post. It may take a while.

    Maybe you should come back when you are a couple of years older and can express yourself properly and understandable.

    *edit*
    I just saw that you opened a thread about your problems before, now you are mad that noone helped you. That is too bad, but **** happens.
    When I see how you talk to the other people in this thread I don't even want to help you any more. So much for that.

    Even though the problem was sovled I do have to agree with Grillkohle. For the fact that it wouldnt kill you to wait more then 10 min. I mean not to bash but you could do lots of thing like read a book, watch tv, make a map, tweak your pc, etc. The possiblities are almost endless, but jsut dont sit and refresh every few min. So best of luck with ns but try and wait a bit longer.

    There's 'don't post if you don't have anything nice to say' and 'don't post if you don't have anything legible/understandable to say'.
    I leave it up to you do decide which catagory this thread falls under.

    Nice. Was going to post it, until I realized there was a second page. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I believe there is a file that you can change in HL somewhere to change the resolution (it's where it's stored), however, I cannot remember what/where it is at the moment, or even be sure it exists. I'll post that here if I suddenly remember (since it's not a bad thing to know).

    However...

    <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->thats because i dont like my stops or commas  <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    That's fine. However, it makes everything very difficult to read. When speaking, you do not use periods or commas per se, but you do make use of them as pauses, which makes things understandable. Imagine if someone splurted everything out in one, monotone voice, slurred their words, and so forth. It would be nigh incomprehensible. Writing is the same. If you choose to ignore the communication protocols and standards, people will either a) be unable to help you, due to their inability to understand you, or b) be disinclined to do so, since you just caused them pain/agony/eternal torment, or at least **** them off something awful.

    Thus, I highly recommend you use periods, commas, and other useful punctuation.

    Grim, you need to learn how to spell, punctuate and format your messages. You also need to stop posting after yourself over and over. There is an edit button. If you're too lazy to do any of this, then bugger off. Nobody wants to read a post that looks like my little brother wrote it. (Actually, my little brother writes better than that, and he's dyslexic. Really says something about those posts, huh?)

    Sorry to be blunt, but it's the truth.
