Game Screen size borked

[Jasonleebeck]

Classic 2d, always have at 800*600. Patched, now screen small, won't get big again (I know, sounds dirty) . No uoassist either.

Anyone else?

Nvrmnd. Had to restart the client. Didn't it in the past notify you that the client had to be restarted for the changes to take effect? Doesn't now if it had.

Assist is a known, recurring problem. Check uo players corner for the solution in the stickies.
need more info on the screen size. Have you checked what's ticked in your paperdoll options?

Wait, no, now it reverted back to small. ..cool

clicking the 'eye' looking thing, the full screen option is set to 1024x768 and the game play size is 800x600. It's been set to those options since first install. After patching, my game play window resorted to the 640x480 size, yet is not selected in options. If I toggle between the two options, and leave it at 800x600, apply, then ok, then restart the client, it works. As soon as I log out, it goes back to the smaller size.

I have been having the same issue with no resolution. I'm assuming this isn't common since there aren't any other replies. Ever find a solution Jason?

This may not work, though it has for other options I've had problems with reverting to defaults.
Check the uo.cfg files for all your characters in the 'my documents/EA Games' folder and the main one in the 'program files/EA Games/Ultima Online 2D Client' folder, Look for the line 'GamePlayWindowSize=' Make sure ALL the files have the same setting. Logging in with any character with a different setting will screw it all up again.

Looking at the uo.cfg file was an excellent suggestion. I did find that "GamePlayWindowSize=800x600" was not present in the default uo.cfg file on this machine (freshly rebuilt and haven't customized my default files yet) but it was indeed present in all of the applicable character uo.cfg files. Furthermore, adding the setting to the default and starting over does indeed have the intended effect of adding the entry to the character uo.cfg but it is simply being ignored.

Back to the drawing board I suppose...

Unfortunately no, and I tried the UO.cfg thingy also. I guess I'll live with the game screen being the size of a postage stamp on a 22" lcd in 1280x1024 mode.

Mine is all screwy too. VERY small screen and I did not change any of my settings but I did patch when the Valentine's stuff hit test center. Anyone find a fix yet?

Since this isn't affecting many users it might help the engineers fix it if we knew what else you had in common. So what operating system and what graphics cards do you have?
