Re: resolution help

I had a smiliar problem - this is how I fixed it on my pc.

I had to change my graphics setting in my game directory because the normal config wasn't working for me.

Go>>> Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\ToolsEU\Final Fantasy Config.exe.

You might have to use ToolsUS - I don't know what version you are playing.

After that go >>> Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\polboot.exe
I use polboot.exe to start the game now, and have never had a resolution issue since.

Hope that helps, sorry if it doesn't.

Urm, sorry, I don't know what else you can try. I guess you could always tinker with the registry (don't ask me how it's done, I always screw up my game when I try).

Heres a link that you might find useful Graphics - FFXIclopedia, the Final Fantasy XI wiki - Characters, items, jobs, and more
