You could always try to manually edit the "swat.cfg" file that is found in your game's main directory. Make sure the game isn't running while you do the edit.

In this example you want the game to run in 1920x1080

The top line should read:
res=1920 1080

further down you will find a bunch of lines that look like this:
display_mode=640 480 2 1
display_mode=800 600 2 1
display_mode=1024 768 2 1
display_mode=1280 1024 2 1

You will need to add this line:
display_mode=1920 1080 2 1

Save and reboot Swat 3.

Please note: all Swat 3 default menus are in 800x600. The actual 3D portion of the game will now run in 1920x1080


An alternative method is to use the Last Resort mod that contains a launcher app that automates this process.


Also I highly recommend you use dgvoodoo 2 with Swat 3. It can solve many problems for older games under Windows 10. You can read about it here:
