I bought a new monitor and the resolution doesn't work for perfect world.
Basically if I select widescreen it does not work for 1024x768. The top and bottom are cute off for 1024x768 widescreen. If you take widescreen off then this resolution works perfectly...

This is not the issue but it might give you some insight into what the problem is. The problem is when I select a true widescreen display, 1920 x 1080 then the top and bottom of the map are cut off whether I click widescreen or not. Basically this game has no wide screen support. Why is there a widescreen button at all if it doesn't support widescreen?

Does anyone know how to fix this. I am not playing Perfect world on 1024x768 ti simply isn't worth it.

    Have you tried using windowed mode? Or is that something that you wouldn't do?

    that is a strange issue. as a newly registered user, i was worried about wide-screen support.

    i wonder how it will look at Eyefinity resolutions, then. I am currently set @ 6048x1080p.

    Unfortunately, the teleport and game world maps are only fully viewable in a 4:3 aspect ratio, not a 16:9. This has been a long known issue since the original game was released many years ago.

    To work around this issue, you can run the game in windowed mode in a more square shaped resolution so that you can see the map. Not a pretty solution, but the only solution that allows you to see the full map.

    Do you need help learning about patching the game, installing it, changing antivirus/firewall settings, changing network settings, learn how to use a computer, keeping your PC maintained and more?

    I had to turn off the widescreen option on graphic settings to fix that issue since it does cut off some of the display in game.
