Capitalism 2 and Capitalism Lab Forum

Hello,

Game starts in windowed mode and when i try to change it to fullscreen, i get an error (screenshot is below)
I tried everything. changing DPI scale settings, running as admin, deleting config.dat and i tried every possible combination of them ^^
Weird thing is game used to work like 2 weeks ago and nothing changed since. I have the latest version of DirectX and GPU Driver.
Screenshot of the error and DxDiag.txt is below. I know I'm not the only one having this problem and believe me i have tried everything.

I'd be very happy if anyone could help me. Thank you

Can you still run the game in windowed mode now?

Yes, game starts in windowed mode and with no errors so far.

I would suggest that you reinstall DirectX from Microsoft web site and see if it will resolve the problem.

If the above does not work, you may try updating your nVidia graphics card driver as well.

You may download the latest nVidia graphics card driver from:

Did that fix your problem?

I have the same issue and want to know if I should go ahead with the recommendations. Thanks

You may try the following solutions:

SOLUTION 1:
1) Right-click on the Capitalism Lab icon to open the properties window.
2) Select the “Compatibilities” tab and check the Windows XP Compatibility option.
3) Enable the option "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings."
4) Enable the option "Run this program as an administrator."
5) Run the game.

SOLUTION 2:
1) Right-click on the Capitalism Lab icon to open the properties window.
2) Select the “Compatibilities” tab and check the Windows XP Compatibility option.
3) Enable the option "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings."
4) Enable the option "Run this program as an administrator."
5) Enable the option “Run in 640x480 screen resolution”
6) Run the game.

Once in the main menu of the game, you can then select any resolution that is available (either full screen or windowed) as the game is actually not limited by the 640x480 setting.

It's working perfect now. Thanks a lot!!!!!!

Is there anyway to apply Solution 1 and Solution 2 to CrossOver in my mac?

The game is loading fine but the screen is not refreshing when I move and just paints over the top. Thanks
