battlefield 2 resolution problems

[bullzi]

hey guys, i have a 6800ultra 256ddr3 overclocked to 440mhz core, and 2015mhz ram, anyway, im trying to run it on my dads LCD which has a native res. of 1280x1024 this resolution does not show up in the list of resolutions, i can run the game maxed out with all filters on and get 50fps at 1124x864 ( that may not be the exact res, but its the 1100 one

how do i get the 1280x1024 on the list????

i think bf2 can only go up to 1024x768

this is the only way i could think of recieving a higher resolution

isn't 1024x768 a better resolution for gamers to run at?

Like my desktop is at 1280x1024, but when I play my games I play at 1024x768.

bf2 can go WAY higher, im gonna try doing properties>settings>advanced>monitor> and deselect the "hide modes this monitor cannot display" and see if that works, and ill get back to you guys, thanks for the quick response!

well scratch that, ya im just gonna run the 1024x768, i can run the filters and stuff maxed out so the lines will look smooth, thanks guys

don't think you can get it to the list.
But an easy way to use it is to add +szx 1280 +szy 1024 to the end of the path of the bf2 shortcut.
