saltee

Well, I finally got back here. After being directed to the widescreen gaming forum, before I could do anything my motherboard died
OK, for Age of Empires 2, it says command line for fix. Remember I don't know anything about this- what am I supposed to put in the command line, how do I put it there, and how do I even get to the command line? oh geez, what IS a command line? I only remember using a command line back when I used DOS, many moons ago.

Hmm it seems strange for that forum to put Cmdline without putting what to put in it, that is a toughy. Maybe try a few google searches, I will too and edit this post if I find any

This is from an earlier thread about getting age of empires 2 into widescreen @ 1400x900 on a 19" gateway widescreen monitor. The game doesn't support native widescreen and the widescreen gaming forum http://www.widescreengamingforum.com...itle=Main_Page Says that you can make it widescreen by putting something in the cmdline (comand line) but it doesn't say what to put in, which is very unusual. This means the search is on for a soultion to getting AOE2 into widescreen!!!

PS: You aren't dumb lancer

From what I can tell on Google, these are the only command line options available for AOE2.

There may be others, but I couldn't find them.

[edit] Or maybe not.

Try this
"C:\Program Files\Age of Empires 2\aoe2.exe" xres=1680 yres=1050

replace xres and yres with your widescreen resolution
