    I tried both XP and 2000.

    I am trying to run the game in resolution 3840 by 2160. The in game resolution is 800 by 640 for campaign, and 640 by 480 for battle.

    Have you tried a higher resolution for the campaign and battle? It might be that the game is unable to render down to those low resolutions when your desktop rez is so large. Try at least 1280x1024, but you should be able to go higher.

    Tried changing both the desktop resolution and game resolution to 1280X1024, did not fix it.

    Leave your desktop rez to what you had (that must have been ugly!). How high of a resolution does the game menu allow? I would try both the campaign and battle map at the highest.

    If that doesn't work, set both the campaign and battle map resolutions to 800x600, and try to run in Windowed mode. To run in Windowed mode, you will need to change your game shortcut properties to something like this:
    Code:
    "D:\games\Total War\Medieval - Total War\Medieval_TW.exe" -strictserver D
    Basically, you want to add the "D" to the end. If this works, be aware that the game is also running in the -ian mode, which allows you to change factions and do a lot of other debugging functionality.

    I'm sorry, but I don't know anything about Med II. The Med II forums aren't very active, but there is a moderator who checks in on new posts and might be able to answer your questions.

    This didn't work for me, I need DxWnd.exe to run both STW-WE and MTW on windows 10 but it seems the dll file that I inserted into directory was not compatible with the software I use. Is there any way I can do about this?

    Interesting topic that came up, because I also struggled recently with some resolution issues. In the end, because of a wide monitor (which I guess did not exist back in 2002 when MTW released), I went for 1280 x 720 and Widescreen mode in MTW (Steam Edition) to cover the entire screen and not have too many issues.

    It worked, and it's an enjoyable experience.
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    This subforum is for the first Medieval Total War. Questions for modding Medieval II/Kingdoms should probably go into the Modding Questions Med II subfora or maybe the Modding Tutorial and Tools subfora.
