Battlefield: 1942 - Resolution Help

[Markis]

Hey, In Battlefield: 1942, the max resolution is 1400x1024 or something around there, my monitor resolution is 1680x1050 which makes in-game text and other things look really bad. Up at my uncles gaming center though, battlefield has a resolution of 1680x1050, does anybody know how to get that? or am I stuck with bad text and other things? lol

In-game adjust your graphic settings. 

Full screen apps adjust the monitor settings according to whatever u say. Just be sure its in full screen and it shoudl be fine.

Graphics is set to as high as it will go, but the resolution doesnt go to 1680x1050 like my monitor does, max is 1400x1050.. and I dont want to change my monitor resolution either and the game is running in full screen

you may have to change your desktop resolution while in game.... its a lot of hassle i know but thats all you can do...

Isn't 1680X1050 widescreen? To set a custom resolution you have to go into the config files and change it there, then set them to read-only so the game won't change them back. I couldn't get BF1942 to run properly in widescreen, the resolution was right but the whole picture was stretched.
