Small game screen size
My son clicked on something and what was a full size screen for Turbo Dismount is now only a screen about an inch and a half by an inch and half in the middle of the screen... I have searched for a considerable amount of time trying to fix this but can not find any setting to do this... Very frustrated.... Help would be greatly appreciated :)

Go to the video settings in the game and change the resolution.

Not sure how to do this. Can you explain? Screen on actual game is too small to do anything.

You can make the game start with a certain resolution by using the -w and -h parameters e.g for 800x600 use -w 800 -h 600

I apologize I am very new to this and just trying to fix this for my son so even with that I am very lost... I really do appreciate your trying to help though as this is very frustrating

let's say your screen resolution is 1366x786. Go to the game propreties, right click and then propreties, click on set launch options
copy paste this
-w 1366 -h 786
and press enter.
Try launching the game and post back here for feedback.

How do I go to the game properties?

right click on the game in your library.
Propreties is the final option.

When the game is running, hold down your 'ALT' key and press 'ENTER'

Startup options that Evo mentioned.. Steam > Library > Turbo Dismount > rightclick > properties > Launch Options

then enter values like -w 800 -h 600

Values 800 and 600 are too small i think.

-w 1280 -h 720 (720p)
-w 1440 -h 900 (900p)
-w 1920 -h 1080 (1080p)
-w 2560 -h 1440 (1440p)

That's enough to choose from.. Unless he has a different aspect ratio..
Try editing the launcher stettings.

Nothing is working and I am at my ropes end. Not sure how it got changed like this in the first place when it was working perfectly fine when it was downloaded.... Editing the launcher settings seems to do nothing.... I am leanin towards the option of totally deleteing this entire mess and starting over which means purchasing the game all over again....

You don't need to purchase it again. And the game is already tied to your account.

You can always try this :

1. Delete any folders in 'My documents' that refer to Turbo Dismount (to delete settings) Try to leave savegames intact..

2. Disable Steam cloud (Properties of Turbo Dismount > Disable steam cloud)

3. Verify Integrity of game cache > Properties > Local > Verify Integrity of game cache

Retry game..

Adding to what sm0 said. Worst case scenario, reinstall the game but i like his first solution.
LiamLimeLarm Apr 27, 2014 @ 12:31pm 
I now officially give up... I removed this from steam all together then reloaded it... I have a very slow internet connection and it took over 1 hour to load and the game screen size is still only one and half inches square... This is absolutely ridiculous
