Works fine apart from dual screens does not work (as in using the 2nd screen as a radar).

I cant get it to go to my screen's resolution unless I want to stare at a nice entirely grey screen. :/

That maybe a driver issue, but not directly down to 10, people can get that issue regardless of windows version.

Awhile back I went into SupCom's files and manually input my screen res and it works now. Look for a config file or something similar :)

Colonel Nerd,

Couldn't find any :-(

Ok I found it...

C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance

File is Game.prefs and can be edited with the notepad.


Then The part

primary_adapter = {
default = '3840,2160,60',

Can be set to whatever is desired.

Though now I got an another problem... Mouse pointer. I cannot see it. It happen to me in Blood bowl as well. I have no idea why the mouse pointer is missing or not showing on those old games

Then I find the solution. You have to run the game into compatible mode with 7 or b8 if you are under win 10 I guess

Only thing is that if you do so you have to run tthe program not from steam but from the bin folder. Otherwise it reset the preference ...

C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\bin

Ran it from the bin folder, but the resolution keeps reverting back every time

Check the game.prefs file or the entire folder isnot read-only.

I've got full permissions for both the game.prefs file and the whole folder

I am having this same problem. No dual screen and resetting the resolution. =(

If on windows 10, dual screens does not work for anyone, no fix. the resetting reolution should be fixable as most of us do not have an issue.

re-create FA profile, some misonfigrured FA mods(released, but usually alpha version) may break it or edit manually.

You got really high resolution for your screen, perhaps can you give some standard resolution for your exemple.
I have the same problem with dual screen, since i upload Windows 10 for update my win7-64bits, i lose my secondary screen... and can you remember me the key for middle screen please ?
