Resolution of Screen

[fariba]

hi all,
to change resolution of screen i use the below code,
I want to accomplish this from a flash file,i would write a function like this in my action script:

import flahs.external.ExternalInterface;
function SetRes(x:number , y:number , optionalFullScreen:string)
{
ExternalInterface.Call("FlashToConsole","setres "+x+"×"+y+optionalFullScreen);
}

on the Unreal Side:
function FlashToConsole(string command)
{
ConsoleCommand(command);
}

but it doesn't work at all,i don't see effect of this code.
what's problem?
how can i change resolution of screen dynamically?
is there any idea?
thanks

One thing is to take note of which resolutions your graphic cards supports, if you try to change into a resolution which isn't supported, nothing might happen, and also, I see you've taken my theoretic code by heart, but the correct syntax would be: setres 1900x1200f for 1900 x 1200 resolution in fullscreen and 1900x1200w for the same resolution in windowed, which you actually have to provide a "f" or "w" into the optionalFullScreen, are you doing that? the x between 1900 and 1200 isa lowercase x by the way.

Also: are you sure that both functions fires off as expected? and have you tried to put a `log statement in FlashToConsole and see what kind of ConsoleCommand it tries to do?

thanks Charleon,
yes,i used your code and i provide a "f" into optionalFullScreen(it was initialized in init function in action script)
my code in action script is:

import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
var width:number;
var height:number;
var optionalFullScree:string;

function init()
{
width=1024;
height=768;
optionalFullScreen="f";
}
ResolutionButton.addEventListener("click",this,"Pr essResolutionButton");

function PressResolutionButton()
{
SetRes(width,height,optionalFullScreen);
}

function SetRes(WidthValue:number , HeightValue:number , Optional:string)
{
ExternalInterface.Call("FlashToConsole","setres "+WidthValue+"×"+HightValue+Optional);
}

on the Unreal side:
function FlashToCosole(string command)
{
ConsoleCommand(command);
}
and init function in action script was called before.

yes,i use `log function in FlashToConsole function in unreal script,the string that i see in log window is: setres 1024A-768f
note:for multiply symbol between width and height i copy × symbol from office word so in log window i see A character instead of ×.
i think the problem relation × symbol.
what do you think?
do i should use * or × for multiply symbol between width and height?
do this problem relation × symbol?

also:i used "+" symbol instead of "$" for connect between strings(you were use "$" in your code but while i test flash file a error occured,so i use "+" for connect between strings.do this solution is correct?)
thanks

Use x not *

[fariba]

Use x not *

ok,i used x but my problem doesn't solve still.
so test this command,i use `log function and i put this command into `log function,next in log window i see this context:
1024A-768f
so the problem doesn't solve still.
note:i copied x symbol from microsoft office word and i can not found this symbol from keyboard!
would you please get me some guidence?
thanks

x is the letter x (24th letter) in the English language. The console command you're trying to fire is:

setres 1280x720

[Ryan Commodore]

Press TAB during gameplay.
Then type in setres 800x600 or setres 1024x768 then press enter.

For fullscreen:
setres 800x600f or setres 1024x768f then press enter.

an other question:
when i set my favorite resolution next i return the before map(that it was made by falsh),i see that around of my map is dark,now i want my mouse(this mouse has made by flash too)doesn't move to the dark part.

thanks.

can you please post a screenshot which shows the problem? I think it might have to do with the Flash not automaticly adjusting to the size of the screen, which is explained in this thread:
