Summary: Resizing the screen / resolution only works on startup - Battlefield 1942 Product: Wine Version: 0.9.18. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-directx AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: kevin@kevin-online.com
On startup, Battlefield sets the resolution to the size of startup / config resolution, i.e. 800x600. When starting a game, the resolution is not updated to the games resolution. Instead, the resolution is kept and only a part of the game is shown. Switching back for forth with Esc, only moves the clipping more and more out of sight. Changeing the resolution in-game again doesn't have any effect to the resolution.
Because of bug #5872 I'm only able to try this in desktop mode. W/o desktop mode, the resolution is set to 800x600, but the game / wine faile afterwards.
