how to play silkroad on 1920*1080 ? its not in the options

XMoshe · **Posted:** Tue Jun 02, 2009 9:49 am

Can your monitor/graphics card handle that resolution? If it can it should show. Or maybe it's not a resolution ingame?

That's the resolution I play at, so it's there.

Should work fine at 1920x1080.
Maybe try a new graphix driver.

edit: xian power xP

my monitor can ,and so does the GFX card ,but the game ain't showing but 1280*1024 and 1024/789 (or something like that) and 800*600
btw i am talking about ecsro ,though it shouldn't matter right ?

ecsro only has 2 resolutions AFAIK >.<

Here is a macro which let you resize your client resolution. But make sure you are playing in window mode, otherwise i won't guaranty if it works fine. Just execute the macro.
http://www.mediafire.com/?jmez01g5ozm

And the source code, if ur afraid of keylogger, write & compile in AutoitV3:

Code:

WinMove("SRO_Client", "", 0, 0, 1920, 1080)

Am I just supposed to start that program once ecsro is running? Because that isn't working....all it does is stretch out the pixels. How do I run sro in windowed mode?

NuclearSilo · **Posted:** Tue Jun 02, 2009 9:34 pm

oh, i think it only stretch things ~.~ It won't make your view larger...
Window+Alt+Enter = win mode

that isn't what I mean. It is stretching stuff outside of my screen and when I click somewhere to move the character moves to a space a little to the right of where I clicked

Or you can force the game to run fullscreen in that resolution by editing the resolution in the settings file and setting it to read only.

the setting is encoded and in binary, it's not a plain text to edit like media.pk2...
But i guess i can change the value of resolution through memory editing, if the client allow it

you could always tell us all how too. you know for the people who don't know enough to figure out how to edit it properly/people who don't want to spend a lot of time to figure it out.

dosent work how on how its based all it does is stretch the game to be the hight and width of what ever but the buttons and such are till at x,y of the screen.

NuclearSilo · **Posted:** Wed Jun 03, 2009 2:05 am

For the moment, you can use the macro by doing this:
- open the game, login, go in game
- alt tab and go out to desktop
- right click mouse -> properties to access to display settings
- last tab, change the resolution to desired resolution such as 1920*1080
- run the macro

in theory, it should work fine, i didn't test though.
Tomorrow, i'll figure out another way, or wait for Cruor

I dont remember how I runned ecSRO in windows mode, but it was without any 3rd party programs and worked like charm...
I was running on 1024x768...

I think it was like this: Open up Silkroad, put your resolution WHILE in full screen to desired one, press win+alt+enter.
(or whatever shortcut is for win-mode)

If you want to change resolution, go to full screen, change it, and open windows mode again, that way you wont have problems like someone said in this topic, "he clicks somewhere with mouse, and character runs in opposite direction".

Could anyone confirm this is working?
I dont have ecSRO.

NuclearSilo · **Posted:** Wed Jun 03, 2009 3:29 am

Yes, actually, you don't need any 3rd pt program to modify. You can do like this:
- use windowed mode
- change the resolution of the desktop to desired resolution

If you don't change to window mode, you'll have a mouse trap. If you change back to full screen mode, the resolution will be reset, it will take the resolution set in the game.

You can also change to any custom resolution, by modifying the memory:
offset: 0x009F1854 (height) 0x009F1850 (width)
and the outcome

You don't see the UIs coz you didn't modify the UI position related to resolution yet.
UI offset: 0x00A00CA8 (height) 0x00A00CA4 (width)
These are static offset so they'll be the same for everyone. After modifying the UI, go to the game option, click on Apply to apply settings.
There are other offset such as: 00C5DB84 00C5DB84, 00C1694A 00C16946
maybe some modify the UI resolution or other resolution but i don't really know. It's not smt you can notice with the eyes when modifying them.

The first time, i've done smt wrong, so everytime i login, the client crash. But if i use another character, it didn't crash (actually, i click Restart instead of clicking Exit the game so i think my char is stuck). Any help?

might want to tone it down a lil if you want most people to understand what your talking about

anyways nice find will try it out

Apparently ECSRO uses a modified client which doesn't operate in the same way as the official client, so this solution doesn't work. How could I have predicted that? Regardless, it does (and did) work with the retail client, and I'm pretty sure it would work with the MHTC client (SRA flavor) if that's still usable.

Apparently you can't, because the ECSRO client has been modified, and the patched version of that client which saves settings changes nonstandard resolutions into standard ones.

If you want to try it yourself, you just convert your number to hexadecimal and flip the bytes (little-endian). For 1440x900, you would change the first number to A005 and the second number to 8403

NuclearSilo · **Posted:** Thu Jun 04, 2009 12:48 am

Here is the new macro i made for custom resolution: http://www.mediafire.com/?fcjmykjyl15
- run the macro when you are in the game (don't use it at login screen like LadyShadow

)
- enter the resolution desired
- open game Option -> Apply to apply new settings

I don't have wide screen monitor so i don't know how it will look like, in theory, it should stretch your screen horizontally instead of giving you a wide view like zoom hack.
