gaming TF2 Resolution Help

[Chacobos 160]

So after a recent update a few days ago my TF2 hasn't let me play in 1920x1080p. Literally...there is no option to and it defaults to an awkward 1650p I've tried reinstalling and validating local game files but neither worked so I am unsure what could be the cause of this. All my other games work fine and allow me to play in 1920x1080. Any ideas and how to fix it?

Seems fine for me...

 

 

Are you sure you have the aspect ratio set to Widescreen 16:9? Those all look like 4:3 resolutions to me.

The aspect ratio just doesn't want to change, I tried fiddling with it but kept switching to that.

Interesting... check your startup options for anything unusual. I had a problem where Portal 2 kept resetting to 1366x768 even though my screen is now 1920x1080, checked my startup options and the -w and -h options were there, set to 1366 and 768.

The list of resolutions should update once you select 16:9 as the aspect ratio, but if you hit apply right after you've selected 16:9 it will apply the current resolution again then the aspect will be back to 4:3.

Basically select 16:9 then select 1920x1080 from the list and then hit apply.

Edit: if it still won't let you set the resolution you can specify it manually by adding "-w 1920 -h 1080" to the launch options by right clicking on the game in steam -> "Set launch options"

If all else fails, you may be able to change the game's startup options to use -w 12345, -h 12345, and then either -window or -fullscreen.

 

Have any other games had resolution issues?
