Re: CnC Generals Zero Hour sideways screen

@warknilch

Check your Windows video settings, and see if there's any graphics scaling options enabled. That stuff tends to mess up a lot of older full-screen applications.

    How did you correct this issue?  I've attempted editing the configuration file, but that also fails to resolve. The custom launcher provided by another member also fails to detect C&C as my copy is not from Origins, but from the Last Decade compilation. All patches have been installed. I too am attempting to play on a Lenovo Miix 320 Tablet with Windows 10.

    I was able to find this, http://www.cnclabs.com/generals/zerohour/command-line-arguments.aspx

    Long story short, I created a shortcut on my desktop and applied the -win switch to force the game to be windowed, I then tweaked the resolution in the options.ini file. It works but it's not a true native fullscreen. If anyone has a fullscreen solution I'd be very interested.
