Character creation
#33678 - 08/28/07 03:19 PM

I downloaded the game created my account and can log in all the way to character creation. It seems like the screen is way larger than my monitor. I can create the character change the features but I dont have any button to click to move to the next part. My mouse pointer goes pretty far off the screen to the bottom. Thats why I think its a screen resolution/size problem. Windows xp user if you need that info. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

What video card do you have? What resolution is your monitor?

Try this: hit Alt+Enter when you start the game to switch it to windowed mode. Alternatively, you can type in a character name blind, hit Enter to go to the character selection screen, and Enter again to enter the game.

Once you're in the game world, you should be able to modify your graphics settings to bring the resolution more in line with your monitor.

Yeah i tried typing a name and hitting enter but it didnt do anything. I'll have to try the alt/enter when I get home.

Before the patch that hit this afternoon (a little after 12pm CDT), that wouldn't have worked - the character creation screen was polished a bit to make just that kind of thing easier with just the keyboard.
