BFV problems and cannot enter HELLO server

[Plautus]

I use gametracker Lite, but somehow cannot enter HELLO server. I use 1.21 BFV.

Furthermore I can only play on 640x480 resolution. Other resolution don't show up. I use win 7 (edited)

Please help!

We're running on version 1.2 so you'll need to reinstall BFV if you want to play.

Please help!

The resolution thing is a pain in the ass in window 8, use virtual machine if you cannot find it playable.

locate your game folder and go to: Battlefield Vietnam/Mods/BFVietnam/settings/Profiles/Custom - now open a file named VideoCustom and you should see a line: "game.setDisplayMode 640 480 bla bla", now simply overwrite that to your desired resolution but be aware that whenever you change anything in ingame settings, it will reset that back...

I changed it several times but didn't work!

I have win8, but I am sure it works in 7 also... dont know what could be the problem

Maybe try the compatibility settings? Use trial and error and see which mode works best.
