Tropico

Game starting in wrong resolution!!
Hi.

I recently purchased the Tropico series, which is on special offer.
I've got 1-4.

I tried to play Tropico 1 and 2 so far, and the games are running in a wrong resolution.
Only the top left corner of the game appears and the game is really big.

I can't adjust the games resolutions...

Does anyone have any idea how I fix it?

My current PC resolution is 1920 1080
Windows 8.1 64 bit
Nvdiea GTX 760

Resolution are always 5:4 (old monitor resolution), max resolution 1280x1024 (can be change inside game)
i solved problem of widescreen on nvidia control panel, on screen menù i forced desktop resolution on gpu.
OS window 7 64bit, my video card is gtx770 and now my gpu works always at 1920x1080.
The game is in centre, full height but 2 black strips left and right.

there is no max resolution its depend on aspect ratio on monitor also it try to fit screen

so the better monitor the higher resolution i have 1600*1200 at 24"monitor widescreen

and you need to start a campaign/map then settings can be found... odd place that its not in main menu.

as Proteone try to explan its the native monitor standard resolutions he take,
and you will never get wide screen, that require unoffical patch or other things that can fiddle with game core engine to overrule that.

You can try to make work with DXWrapper. Also it can help you to switch Tropico 1 to Hardware mode without models broken. May be it will work, May be not. No guarantie. Just try.
