Unable to set graphics mode above 800x600 fs

I can't create a fullscreen graphics mode higher than 800x600 , I tested at 1280x1024, 1600x1200 and 3200x1200, all failed.

windowed works fine, tried variations of bitdepths.



Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4G Q6600
NVIDIA GeForce 8800GTS 320MB
ASUS p5K Deluxe MB
2G RAM
DIRECTX 9.0c August 5.3.2600.2180)
Windows XP sp2
GeForce Video 163.71 ( 6.14.11.6371)
Dual Screen
Blitz3d 1.99 (reports 1.98), previous version same fault.


test code
Graphics3D 800,600 ; works

Graphics3D 1280,1024 ; doesn't work or 1600,1200 3200,1200 etc.

I just did thanks,

Mode 1: (640x480x16)
Mode 2: (640x480x32)
Mode 3: (320x200x16)
Mode 4: (320x240x16)
Mode 5: (512x384x16)
Mode 6: (640x400x16)
Mode 7: (800x600x16)
Mode 8: (1024x768x16)
Mode 9: (320x200x32)
Mode 10: (320x240x32)
Mode 11: (512x384x32)
Mode 12: (640x400x32)
Mode 13: (800x600x32)
Mode 14: (1024x768x32)
Mode 15: (1280x480x16)
Mode 16: (1600x600x16)
Mode 17: (2048x768x16)
Mode 18: (2560x1024x16)
Mode 19: (3200x900x16)
Mode 20: (3200x1200x16)
Mode 21: (1280x480x32)
Mode 22: (1600x600x32)
Mode 23: (2048x768x32)
Mode 24: (2560x1024x32)
Mode 25: (3200x900x32)
Mode 26: (3200x1200x32)

So there is the explanation, no 1600x1200 or 1280x1024.

Though 3200x1200x32 still fails for a different reason, presumably memory related ' unable to create 3d scene'

So not a bug, only operator error.

That is real odd, maybe you need to add those graphics modes in the driver section, or using a device tool to put those in. Have you found ouyt why they don't list?
