Resolution Switches?

Hello!

I'm hoping someone more knowledgeable than me can help me out. Because of my computer setup, it would be quite helpful to me to be able to start CoH windowed sometimes, and full screen sometimes.

I worked out doing that with the -fullscreen switch. Works awesome.

What is a bit of a problem is I have different resolution preferences for fullscreen versus windowed. Is there a way I can uses switches to set the game to the preferred resolution on startup?

Thanks in advance to anyone who offers a suggestion.

The -fullscreen 1 / -fullscreen 0 command can be used to swap between windowed mode and full-screen mode (you said you already knew this one).

You can also use the -screen x y command to specify a resolution level (so -screen 1042 768 would be in 1024x768 resolution)

So, you should be able make 2 shortcuts to start in whatever mode/resolution you want

-fullscreen 0 -screen x y

-fullscreen 1 -screen x y

I haven't used these commands in a long time, but I think they still work.

That's exactly what I was hoping to hear.

Fantastic, thanks!

I believe you could also use the program tweakcoh to do the same thing before starting COH up also.
