Ho to add a custom resolution (Intel)

Btw. Ofc it works, with the direct link, but as soon you go via Escape back in the menu it would crash.

Yeah I followed the steps and her computer says custom resolution not supported on integrated chips. I don't think the stars are going to align on this one boys sad

Just add a custom resolution 800x600 via Graficcard-Menu or/and make a direct link to Simple and other Servers, i described it before.

Problem solved

If his computer cant run a window in 800x600 then its something else thats wrong.

However its darn near impossible to know how much a random guy posting in a forum knows about computers, so thats why i try to go the simplest route possible to try and solve the problem.

Yes I have been reading quite a few threads trying to figure the issue out, I did set the game to windowed mode, and I also tried the modified .exe from the other forum, and I changed the video.con files to match the pc's settings, the pc is set to 60hz refresh and does not have 800x600, its a laptop with an intel onbaord graphics card.

Additionally I did also try using a direct link to skip the startup, no dice.

I also tried that modified .exe no luck on that, same error.

Hi Thomas12. If i where you i would try this first https://team-simple.org/forum/viewtopic … 69#p167769

And if that works ok i would then change back to fullscreen and apply this patched file and then try start the game again https://bfmods.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=47957

Good Luck.

So I get a invalid video mode specified error when trying veiwmode 0

Blackscreen is run as admin, I have already changed the resolution in video.con to what the display is set at.
I don't think I have an option to set a custom resolution

So I just installed bf1942hd on my wife's computer and when I go to start it, the screen goes black like the games starting and then goes back to desktop.

I made sure direct play is on.
I tries changing the video.con files because her laptop doesn't have 800x600 on the card

Not really sure where to go from here.

Maestro, I happened to just read your sig about the source code, it's kind of funny about 15 years ago on server side modding I actually had the idea to get that, and we started a petition and sent it to EA Games but they said they "lost" the code would be pretty cool to implement some sort of download system so all mods could be downloaded as you join a game.

Ok I ran it on compatibility and it seems to have worked out the issue, Thats awesome thanks you guys, I never would have figured those issues out lol.

#9 Re: Technical Help » Get a server online » 2021-08-01 22:57:30

Ok so forwarding the 23000 port got it up and running, here is another question though. I can run the server through the dedicated server now without issue, however if I try running the BFSM fro  blackbagops its v 2.0 the server starts up and then stops and auto restarts about every ten seconds. has anyone seen this? not sure if its the version or possible a compatibility issue with 64 bit operating system?

This is the log of events

8/1/2021 17:02:47 : Server started
8/1/2021 17:03:02 : Connected
8/1/2021 17:03:13 : Server has a popup
8/1/2021 17:03:17 : Disconnected
8/1/2021 17:03:17 : Server stopped
8/1/2021 17:03:17 : Auto-restart is enabled, restarting the server.
8/1/2021 17:03:17 : Server started

Ok I will try that, I also did not open 23000 only 14567 so that may also be a problem, shortly after I made my last post I remembered the method of connecting via a ip but hadn't yet had a chance, so I will also try that. what exactly do you mean by global ip?

#11 Re: Technical Help » Get a server online » 2021-08-01 02:51:55

It does not appear on the server list in game.

#12 Re: Technical Help » Get a server online » 2021-07-31 05:38:43

So I allowed the ports in my firewall and forwarded them in my router, still cant get the server up. I am not sure how to tell what version of bf I am running, so I don't know if im running the correct server, but i tried both versions.

#13 Re: Technical Help » Get a server online » 2021-07-18 17:18:34

Oh great much appreciated I didn't see these before.

Hello everyone, thanks for taking the time.

Basically I have been out of the game a few years and just got back to it, I want to set up a server so a couple friends and I can play, I used to use BF server manager, But I don't know if that even works anymore with the game spy shutdown.

I am having a lot of trouble finding any info on this and I tried running the dedicated server I downloaded and bfsm I downloaded but I cannot get the server on the list, I did read something about port forwarding but don't really know how. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
