Intel and Wrapper

[Mitradis]

i have some problems with wrapper on windows 10 with Intel UHD. When i set low resolution (1024768/1280720 etc) game crashed on start. If set FullHD resolution all ok. Tested on Age of Empires II Stronghold Crusader Tiberian Sun. 4.9.0 version (not my regular pc).

Intel driver have some resolution control function, i notice this for other wrappers (with dgVoodoo games runs in 19201080 even have 1024768 res). How to disable this function?

Can you upload a log file? debug build: #44

it crashes only with fullscreen? Does not crash with borderless/fullscreen upscaled/windowed?

AOE2.zip
STR.zip
no cnc-ddraw.dmp... or empty. Yes if i set windowed mode all ok. I add some dlls from logs.

Stronghold Crusaders crashed if i set in menu in settings any resolution < 1920-1080.

Yeah it's crashing somewhere in a dll from the intel drivers. Too bad the .dmp file is empty, It would've been useful in this case. I updated the debug build, maybe it can create a working .dmp file now with AOE2. #44

What happens if you run these games without any wrapper at a low resolution? Same crash?

[Mitradis]

without any wrapper running (but not this games, because this games have issue with windows 10, but it doesn't apply to this screen resolution issue).

[Mitradis]

Are you aware of some hidden settings to control game resolution from intel drivers? How can i judge by other wrappers driver overwrites its resolution and it creates big problems.

No crash dumps for S

I don't think there is such a function to overwrite the resolution, it's probably just dgvoodoo doing it (same as when you set "Fullscreen Upscaled" in cnc-ddraw settings).

The crash happens on the last ChangeDisplaySettings call, the other ChangeDisplaySettings calls are working fine (these check if the chosen resolution is available). Not sure if there's anything I can do... Did you try to update the drivers?

[Mitradis]

i try update next time.

This issue can be solver by set custom monitor refrashrate in dgVoodoo

intel driver try detect 4//3 or 5//4 full screen app and reset resolution to FHD. If app have different monitor refrashrate than desktop this function ignore app.

I added a new "refresh_rate" settings, you can give it a try if you want:

cnc-ddraw.zip

Note: your monitor must support the value you put in there, if you use a bad value then it will fail to go fullscreen and run in a window instead

[Mitradis]

Yes, now this problem solved here too))
