RESTORE GAME RESOLUTION

Post by JohnRN »

Good Day OOB Tech Professionals,

I have an embarrassing situation with this, my favorite game, OOB.

I gave myself a new large screen TV for Christmas. In trying to maximize the resolution of OOB, I accidentally set it so that somehow my cursor cannot even get close enough to the OPTIONS tab to reset it! I've been online looking for fix-its but come up with zip.

I even uninstalled the game, hoping it would reset to a default I could work with on STEAM but it actually saved all my problem resolution.

Is there a way to reset the resolution to 1920/1080?

Please help me!

Thanks a million!

ISSUE RESOLVED:

While Task Manager is open, returning to game, I found that cursor could move freely beyond last set resolution parameters and, therefore, was able to reset.

Hopefully, this was good for a laugh for some, helpful in the near future for others. As TVs get larger and larger, no doubt this will help some desperate soul in the future.

Cheers!

No laughs but I am sure this could be helpful to others. I am always appreciative of folks who return to post their own solutions when they find them. Thanks.

Right, no laugh here either. I'm also using a large monitor with 4K resolution and have a similar problem every time I launch the game. Fortunately, with pressing "Alt-Tab" twice, the issue's "solved" somehow.
