another working game.

tombraider anniversary

the problem is when you select your custom resolution in game the screen goes black but the game is still runing , you can hear the background music and the cliks if you move your mouse around.

so just select your custom resolution and when screen is black press DOWN once and ENTER to confirm your resolution. you will still not be able to see anything. after that press escape a couple times until you hear your not going back in menu anymore and press UP once and ENTER then DOWN once and ENTER this will quit the game, and next time you start youll be runing on 3 screens

i tryid just simply alt-tab and then close the app. but you get a program error and the game resets to previous resolution. atleast mine.

after you done this and start the game youll notice the mouse cannot be moved around the menu (if anyone resolves this let us know) BUT you can still use your keyboard or joystick to move around. when you are in game the mouse works perfectly. only problem is the image is stretched. ill keep trying stuff to see if it gets un stretched jeje. luck

i found that using the 4:3 settings in game is lees stretched but still very stretched maybe there an app like widescreen fixer for it. cause ive seen pics of this game working on triplehead2go unstretched
