Hello. I run this game and my monitor settings at 1600 x 900 now that I have a new monitor. Ingame is fine except the map. The Map is "zoomed in" and I lose the top and bottom parts of the map. As shown here.

Any suggestions. (I Have a 21 inch Widescreen monitor hence the "odd" resolution)
Btw checking widescreen mode does NOT help.

    Very old issue, there aren't any 16:9 maps but there are 16:9 loading screens and that is all the "widescreen" option really changes

    Deora is correct. PWI currently does not actively support widescreen, and this is most evident in the case of the map. Try playing the game in windowed mode, with a resolution that is slightly smaller than your screen specs. This may help your problem.

    what he means is that if you want to see the entire map you pretty much have to cut the graphics by about 50-75%, becuase PWI is too lazy the shrink the size of the picture.

    I have the same issue..b:surrender and franly i would rather cut a 20% area loss on the map which i rarely use than a 50% graphics loss by lowering my resolution which affect me all the time
    Killing level 80's with a lvl 60 is a lot more fun than killing level 90's with a level 100.

    You may want to check your native resolution. Most widescreen monitors in that size range use a resolution of 1680x1050. At this resolution there is no problem with the map cutting stuff off. (or at least, it's not noticeable.)
    Take the time to look for your answer before you post like an idiot.
