Re: Game will not change graphic setting or Screen Resolution

The game goes black then into window mode on the screen. Its very tiny obviously. What caused it to break last time was having it in full screen windowed.

    Press the [Windows] Key + [R] at the same time 

    Copy the following in to the text box and press ok 

    %localappdata%\swtor\swtor\settings

    Open the client_settings.ini file in notepad and ensure the following are displayed within 

    Fullscreen = false
    D3DFullScreen = false
    RefreshRate = 60

    Check NativeHeight, NativeWidth, Height and Width ( all 4 ) match your monitor resolution.

    Save and close the file.
    Start the game as normal.

    If this fails paste the contents of this file

  • So the full screen and D3DFullscreen were both true so I changed that.  Proceeded to change the height and width to their correct settings 2560 x 1440 and then it worked!

    THANK YOU
