HOW DO I CHANGE RESOLUTION :/?!
I got a slight problem. There are 3 different resolution settings in options: fullscreen, windowed and without frame.

When I choose fullscreen the resolution box is completely emptym doesn't show any.
Windowed is stuck on 1069x602 and without frame is locked to 1280x720.

I tried to alter the videoSettings.ini by changing resolutions in tere to the on that I'm always using (1360x768), but all I managed to get was exe error right ufter turning on the game. So I restored the deafult settings .ini and it works except I'm still stuck with those 2 resolutions.

Is there someone out there who managed to actually change their resolution and can help? Or this game simple doesn't allow me to change it at all :/?

Any answer will be much appreciated ;).

I can set fullscreen in-game but then I got no resolution options, and when I put "1" in .ini file for fullscreen, I'm just getting .exe error :/.

Its hapend to me , resolution disapear only got the ratio. Just open the videosetting.ini and my document/ubisoft and put your fullscreen resolution there and save, then it will apear in the game menu. Its kind of a bug while playing with setting.. resoution disapear

This is how .ini file looks:
WindowStyleFinal=1
MaxRefreshRate=60
FullscreenViewportX=1360
FullscreenViewportY=768
WindowedViewportX=1069
WindowedViewportY=602
FakeFullscreenViewportX=1360
FakeFullscreenViewportY=768

If I leave the "WindowStyleFinal" with "1" at the end, the game crashes immidietaly with .exe stopped working. If I set the above to "2" (fullscreen windowed) it turns on no problems except it is stuck with 1280x720 and then turning Fullscreen in the options doesn't change the resolution to what I set (1360x768) :/.

Well Its work for me, I enter my 5972X1080 resolution in both FAKE and Fullscreen and then the resolution reapear in the game. you can try to edit your resolution in the file like I said then before runing the game, close Uplay. if its not working, close U play and put the file in read only, then try again

I can't use value "1" in .INI. file (which is fullscreen) because it is immidietaly crashing the game. I need to put "2" which is windowed and then the fullscreen resolutions doesn't work.

not a problem that will use the FAKE one... close uplay after a change ... no need to close steam.

But once I close Uplay, Steam will open it anyway just to run the game. So what's the point?

So I can leave "2" in the .ini :)?

A whatever, it's still a higher resolution than on consoles ;p.
