Hey people ,

i have this game called football mananger 2005 but you can only run the game at a resoultion of 1024x768. However i emailed the makers of the game asking them if there was a way of running the game at 800x600.

And they did reply saying:

Hi

Our previous two titles had the same code; there is a way to get round
this by running a command line option -small_screen

where would you think i would type option -small_screen

or is it just the small_screen

thanks for any info

Make a shortcut to the game executable. Or, you can probably use the one that already exists in your start menu if you don't know how to do this manually.

Right click on the shortcut, click "properties"

In the "shortcut" tab, look for the "Target" field. At the end of whatever is already in the Target field, type a space, then type -small_screen. Type this outside the quotation marks in the Target field.

Be sure not to change or delete any of what's already in the Target field or this won't work.
