    Cant change resolution back ! :(

    I've just changed to a strange resolution 960*400 or someyhing like this :embarrassed:

    And now i can't change it back because i can only see half of the screen, and cant see the lower part :eek:

    Anyone can help me ? Any way to force to start the game with 800x600 :confused:

    Any file i can change the resolution manualy ?

    Thanx in advance :classic:

    right click the application, and select properties.

    Under Target, change it to:
    "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSBin\Sims2.exe" -w


    This will put the game into window mode to allow you change it. Afterwards, edit your resolution settings, and go back in and change to:

    "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSBin\Sims2.exe"

    Or you could do what Josh said, but instead of adding -w, add -r1024x768 or whatever resolution you normally play at (so if you play on 800 by 600, -r800x600). This will make the game boot up in this resolution, full screen, at startup, but won't stop it from being changed.
