Adjusting screen resolution

Tim Ling · Sep 19, 2011

I've just got RBR and d/l RallyeSim, and I love it. But I'm having trouble setting my screen rez. I've had a quick search of the forums, and found info on the FixUp.ini/dll, and I think thats now set up correctly. But every time I try to start RBR I get an error message telling me that a compatible D3D device cannot be found. If I run at 1280x1024 it runs fine.

I'm running Win7 Pro with admin rights with an ATI 6770 gfx card.

Here's the info from fixup.ini and rbr.ini

Fixup.ini:
[Settings]
fullscreenWindow=1
fixAspectRatio=1
fixVSync=1
vSyncActive=1

RBR.ini:
[Settings]
Depth = 32
ForceFeedback = true
Fullscreen = false
MinDepthBits = 24
MinStencilBits = 8
ParticleQuality = high
RenderCarShadow = true
RenderQuality = high
RunIntro = false
RunStartup = false
Sound = true
UseCubicEnvironmentMaps = true
UseEAX = true
UseSoftwareAudio = false
UseTripleScreenBuffers = true
WaitRetrace = true
XRes =1650
YRes =1080

I'm doing something wrong, what is it?

EDIT: DOH! Just noticed the title

I use ATI 5970. here are my settings if it helps.

RichardBurnsRally configuration settings (ini.)

Depth = 32
ForceFeedback = true
Fullscreen = true
MinDepthBits = 24
MinStencilBits = 8
ParticleQuality = high
RenderQuality = high
RunIntro = false
RunStartup = false
Sound = true
UseCubicEnvironmentMaps = true
UseEAX = false
UseSoftwareAudio = false
UseTripleScreenBuffers = true
WaitRetrace = true
XRes = 1920
YRes =1200

just type in what resolution you want. so if you have a 1920 x 1080 monitor then just type in 1080 where i have 1200 and save file

also I am using up to date ATI display driver 11.8

Tim, you have a typo in your Resolution Settings - See my correct numbers in blue . That is the problem. :tongue:

Also, here are my FixUp.ini Settings:

[Settings]
fullscreenWindow=0
fixAspectRatio=1
fixVSync=0
vSyncActive=0

I don't use VSynch and usually use Windowed Mode.
