I appreciate the link. I was able to set CoH to be windowed and can get into the game now. The problem is it looks like garbage even at the highest settings. If I set it to full screen, and rebbot, the sign in screen is all zoomed in again and i can't log in. Not sure what the problem is. My video card is an ATI HD4600 and ran the game great before with Windows XP. Now with Windows 7 it looks horible.
I've noticed my 3D resolution scaling option in game, is only going upto 853x623? Everything is set 1280x1040....I think this is the problem, but don't know how to fix it. When the slider is maxed out it is at 853x623.
If you uncheck advanced options under graphics, does the 3D scaler disappear? Not in front of my rig to check. Have you already attempted to get defaults for the graphics/audio tab? What happens if you start your test server install in the CHV Safe Mode by checking that at the first splash screen?
Be well, people of CoH.
If I uncheck advanced options, it does stay. When I try to start up in safe mode, the load screen is all zoomed into the top left corner just like when I try to start in niormal 1280x1040 full screen.
I've noticed it also is making the windows and fonts a bit distorted. All the writing in in game is kinda hard to read. It looks like when you watch a really small low res video in full screen mode. Kinda pixellated and blurry. I set the size of the windows down to 70%, so they are ok, but the text balloons and pull down menu appear very large. Something is definetly messed up.
I figured it out.
If anyone else has this problem, right click the CoH Updater and choose properties. Select the compatability tab and check the "Disable display scaling on high DPI setting" option. Hit apply and your good to go. Cheers!
I recently installed Windows 7 on my computer. I did so because my old harddrive crashed and I decided to take the oppertunity to upgrade. I downloaded the CoH game clients, but when I try to log into Test...even in safe mode, the screen is so zoomed in I can only see the top left corner of the sign in screen. Anyone have any ideas as how I can get logged in and change the video settings?
