How do you change the window mode resolution?

Recommended Posts

I like window mode for games because I can alt tab and go to another window without having the game minimize. I have 2 monitors so I like to keep the forums on the right side and the map while DayZ runs on the left monitor. But it seems the window mode on Dayz is tiny! I tried the -window -x=800 -y=600 and played with the x and y settings but it's always tiny.

Try this:

Windowed=1;

Resolution_W=1920;

Resolution_H=1080;

refresh=60;

WinX=0;

WinY=0;

WinW=1920;

WinH=1040;

WinDefW=1920;

WinDefH=1080;

Render_W=1920;

Render_H=1040;

Drag the corners.

That never worked, changing the arma2 config file did though
