Can't play on my non widescreen CRT.
Pip boy not working. My parents decided to steal my monitor from my home because they "have plans". Now I can't play fallout 4 :/. Any help is appreciated

No, when they found out I was hear permanently, they took the widescreen monitor because it apparently is now my dads, and brought this piece of ♥♥♥♥ that can barely fit on my desk.

You are going to need to go into your .ini files are redo for your current monitor resolution.

Go to Computer. Documents. Games. Fallout4. Fallout4Prefs.ini

Find these lines and chage them to look like this:

bTopMostWindow=1
bMaximizeWindow=1
bBorderless=1
bFull Screen=1
iSize H=X
iSize W=Y

Change the X and Y to whatever your current monitors resolution is.

Also that is a heck of a CRT monitor. Invest like $100 or so and get a small TV or something to use as a monitor, unless you are okay playing modern games on a CRT monitor.

I've been looking for a job for 1 year. No one is hiring anyone new. The ♥♥♥♥ is experienced dishwasher? So I'm stuck being poor as ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dirt. This isn't gta where you murder a civilian for money and nothing happens

If you want it to fit the screen use what I put up to do that. If that has not fixed your issue then come back with what is still bothering you then.

The lines I posted up, when you fix those lines it should fix your resolution for now. This game was in no way meant to be played on a CRT monitor, so I can not really say for sure how it will look on it. Do not expect it to be as crisp and clean as it was before. CRT monitors just can't show things the way a modern day LCD screen can.
