Resolution problem

I dl'd the patch and logged in and my resolution is stuck at 800x600. I cant even get past the rules your supposed to agree on before it lets you choose your server, because it doesnt fit onto the screen. Looking for a way to change my resolution back.

TweakCOH will help you do that. The app is old, but should still work from what I've read.

Found it on a google search but its a no go.

Tried it multiple times and no change. As soon as the game launches resolution goes to crap.

What OS version are you running? There are some font size changes that can be made in Windows that can affect this. Knowing the specific version will help me to give better instructions on how to fix it.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Did you change your monitor resolution recently?

To get to a windowed mode you can right-click on City of Heroes in the launcher, select properties, then add the following to "Extra command line parameters":

-fullscreen 0

To control screen size, you can also add this instead:

-screen <Xsize> <Ysize>

Example:

-screen 1024 768

Combined example:

-fullscreen 0 -screen 1024 768

If you are trying to set it to fullscreen at a specific size instead add this (changing 1024 and 768 to what you want):

-fullscreen 1 -screen 1024 768

Do 'alt-enter'. This will switch to windowed more. You can then resize the window and play (and change to your desired resolution inside the game).
