Are you sure that is your monitor resolution?
Try 14 and see what happens.
Hi there and thanks for your reply!
I've been checking it deeply. My Monitor's native resolution is 1920x1080. Anyway, when I try to modify the number for resolutuin through regedit,
the maximun number I can apply without a Links 2003 crashes after is "12". Any upper number makes Links crashes in the next launch and the number
in the registry self return to 0.

Any other seggestion or comment will be very welcome! Cheers!
Does Links fill the screen and everything look sharp when set to 12?
Do you have a 22 inch monitor?
Still Linksing, thank you vey much! Problem solved!

As you said, i've give a check into the monitor's settings and found there that the "image size" were set to "wide" inetead to "auto",
that way, when playing Links the monitor stretched the screen size to set it up just like a "fake wide screen", hiding that two
black panels in the sides...

Well, setting my monitor to imagen size to "auto" now I can use the value 14 in regedir perfectly; even though if I try 15, the game
still crashes like before, but anyway, this was a great step ahead, after too many headaches! And I must say that now the change in Links
in general is amazing! The graphic quality has been improved A LOT! I'm very happy with this!

Thank you once again!!!

Ok, great, yes, you have a 1920x1080 monitor.
Links will always crash and revert back if you try and set 15.
You cannot set a higher resolution than your monitor.

I'm started in Links in later 2019 so that's one of the things I didn't now, but now really can't believe how the game has changed only
switching it resolution! Is like playing a newer version literaly and more than i'm making the first tests with the new Wakonda from Danny!

AMAZING!!!!! :kicking: :clapping: :notworthy:

Haha, gaming discoveries like that are always fun!
Many people don't understand how the resolutions work so you are not on your own.
Have fun Obi.
May the The Force be with you. :thumbup:

Have you added your video card to the video.txt file in Links? Instructions are in a sticky post here, I think.
