My friend recently tried playing men of war AS on his new PC, and he gets a message saying "Current display setting not supported. Please setup desktop to minimum 16-bit color, minimum 1024 width, minimum 768 height, and try again. He uses a TV as a monitor which is what I think the problem is. His resolution is above 1024x768 and his color depth is 32 bit. I was thinking the game starts at a res lower than 1024x768 for some reason, so I was wondering if there's a way to change the default res from outside the game. If anyone has any knowledge it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks

resolution is determined somewhere in .set files under my documents\my games\mowas\profiles\ and in profile that he uses or default. I suggest setting resolution he wants b someone else on pc and then use that file on with his tv

I found the file you're talking about; It looks something like this
{options
{video
{resolution
{mode desktop}
}
{antialiasing "2x"}
{full_screen}
{vertical_sync}
{detail detail_medium}
{shadow cross_filter_shadowmap}
{filtering anisotropic2x}
{model_quality high}
{fx_quality high}
{bump}
{specular}
{environment}
{waterBump}
{water_reflection real}
{grass}
{bloom}
{clip_distance 1}
{gamma 1}
{brightness 1}
{contrast 1}
}
(This was taken from my PC's file, not his btw)
I'm just not sure how to enter a custom resolution. I fiddled with the line with "resolution" in it, but can't get anything to change to what i type in. Does anyone know how to set the resolution this way?
