Widescreen resolution?
Is there a way to set game resolution to 1366x768? The game looks centered on my computer.

Thanks!

Main Menu of the game --> options --> resolution

Thank you very much for the reply. But that screen only gives me 3 options: Fullscreen, Original and Augmented. No resolution can be set on that screen.

Any other recommendations?

Thanks!

I've achieved.
1, you must enter the game and you put it in full screen mode.
2, quit the game.
3, Go to C: \ Program Files \ Steam \ SteamApps \ common \ Broken Sword Shadow of the Templars

here, right click on the file bs1dc.exe.
In the Compatibility tab should look like in the picture.

Sorry to post on an old thread, but how is this possible on Windows 10?

I tried it but the game still has the black bars on the sides. I guess I can get used to those but if there's a way to play on widescreen, it would be nice.

Not really a widescreen option, but you can configure a Intel or NVidia GPU to scale the game to fit the screen: http://forum.notebookreview.com/attachments/intel-hd-control-panel-scale-full-screen-leave-override-applications-settings-unchecked-jpg.128729/ or http://www.abload.de/img/19yrmg.png

So, anyone found a solution for this, yet? (on windows 10/11)

Finally, I found myself a solution that works for me.
1. Download the latest version of DxWnd and put it in the game folder
2. Run DxWnd.exe
3. Then "File" -> "Import ..." -> in the DxWnd program folder, look for a folder named "exports" -> find the profile: Broken Sword - Director's Cut.dxw
4. The game icon will appear. Select it and "Edit" -> "Modify"
5. In "Path:" and "Launch:" add the path to the icon that starts the game "bs1dc.exe", where you installed the game
6. In the "Main" tab, in the "Generic" field select "Fullscreen only"
7. In the "Position" field, in "Window initial position & size" set X50 Y50 W1920 H1080 and select Desktop
8. Confirm by clicking OK
9. Start the game with the icon in the DxWnd program or leave the DxWnd window open and run the game in Steam to have the Steam overlay.
10. In the game, set Screen Resolution to Original!

Finally a solution that works (W2560 H1440 for those using 1440p resolution)!

Many thanks, I had given up!

You're welcome ☺ I will also say that this solution with the Broken Sword 1 profile in DxWnd also works with Broken Sword 2 Remastered.
