Widescreen resolution

Set widescreen resolution[2]
  1. Remove Settings.cfg from <path-to-game>\save\ if it's present.
  2. Edit <path-to-game>\pc.cfg and find the following strings:
  3. SetBkInt32		ASPECT_WIDTH				4
    SetBkInt32		ASPECT_HEIGHT				3
    
    SetBkInt32		MODE_WIDTH				1024
    SetBkInt32		MODE_HEIGHT				768
    
  4. Modify them to the desired resolution, e.g. for 1920x1080:
  5. SetBkInt32		ASPECT_WIDTH				16
    SetBkInt32		ASPECT_HEIGHT				9
    
    SetBkInt32		MODE_WIDTH				1920
    SetBkInt32		MODE_HEIGHT				1080
    
  6. After this modification, always start the game directly from <path-to-game>\Black Buccaneer.exe, not from the launcher.
