I'm not sure where to post this as i've never posted anything on here before, but theres no community page on this game so i done it here. Every time i try to set this game to a resolution over 1280x1024 the game just minimizes into a small box even if i have fullscreen enabled.

Have you checked out this page?

There is also a supposed good mod to try out: (though this might affect the original gameplay).

Is your screen resolution 1920x1080 or more? If it's less, then that's why minimizing.

There is no individual forum for the game but for the whole series.

My resolution is 1920x1080

Try the suggestions from pcgamingwiki:

Edit
Always check that site when having problems with running games.

This!

i tried this but i cannot find any customheight in the config file at all https://i.imgur.com/4tbN1iq.jpg but its funny i have 2k resolution there not 1080p xd

Just use this and your problem should be fixed:

Link to a patch.

Then you should be able to pick any resolution you want straight from the game menu.

Other than that, I also recommend the incredible Venom mod.

The store should not sell this game for Windows 10, because the stock version is not compatible. The user must look for unofficial home solutions.

Does the Venom mod fix it so we can play at 1920 X 1080?

Thanks

GOG wouldn't support it if it wasn't. If you're having issues running it on YOUR system, contact support about it.

This is false. A few GOG games have issues with 10. (A few i've not been able to get running in a playable state on 10.) They run fine under 7. Because MS keep changing things in 10, it can break things most of the time. GOG support these games (as they should) as they run fine on 7.

A number of games require fixes for 8/10 and not 7, then usually they run fine with 10.

Are you saying those games are supported under Win10 by GOG, yet NOBODY else is able to run them (or have serious issues)?

A PC is not a Playstation, and an individual's experience should very often not be generalised.

No.

You said (or as it came across as) is GOG would not support games on their platform unless they worked straight away under 10. And that if they didn't to contact support.

I said that GOG support them because they run fine under 7, not because they run fine under 10. And those that don't you can usually find third party fixes. (Third party fixes GOG support will generally not recommend or say to use.)

I apololgize if thats not what you ment but thats how it came across to me.

I should've written it more detailed, but thought it was clear in the context of what I've quoted...
New try: GOG supports games to run under Windows 10 (as is) when that is mentioned on the game card. They do so because they've tested it.


Do you have a source for that?

There are several games in the GOG catalogue that are supported under 7 but not 10.
