what is the solution?
There is not much fix to this (as the screen scaling works in that way), but you can try with the suggested screen settings with windowed mode in 32bit colors.
Monitor's supported resolution (desktop resolution) is suggested yes, so it won't make it look like that.
Wrong settings adjusted compared to screen ratio causing this, example 16:9 res on 4:3 monitor.
Window mode does not alter the in game resolution. All it does is loading the game in a specialized container whose initial bounds are preset to 1024 x 768 px. This helps in minimizing lags when you switch between applications. Once the game starts, you will fall back to your preset in game resolution.
As long as you are playing the game in your native desktop resolution you should not experience any f****ing whatsoever. Any modifications, in aspect ratio, custom screen resolution or display scaling can be a direct cause to your screen f****ing. Even UHD displays (2160px) would work fine as long as your display device and graphic adapters are in sync and support that resolution.
I hope this helps. If you have further questions, I would be happy to have them answered.
The only work around i have found is:
The next resolution down 1920x1080 works when i untick "start in windowed mode". (and have the rest of the settings ticked under game settings like you would if trouble shooting)
But any other combination of settings and resolutions makes the fog f**** / turn a shade of green (Most forum posts point to hardware issue, but why then can i produce the correct colours on the resolution above?)
Also changing sharpness/brightness/contrast / monitor profiles only changes the shade or look of the already wrong colour scheme (it doesn't ever get rid of the f****ing, just changes the shade of green you see f****).
Ofcourse i could just play on this huge looking 1920x1080 stretched to my monitor, but there must be a fix so i can just use my native resolution. (like i do for any other game, full screen movie etc and even aoe2 HD (I have tried so many different combos under the game settings - including the links in this / other common threads).
All of these threads seem to end up with someone saying hardware issue, then the original poster never responding. (which i am skeptical about, seeing it is linked to only 1 game)
---Not sure if this is related, but also any time a menu is brought up in game (like me opening the options menu) or say a person lags and the "continue save game menu comes up" - i then proceed to lag for the rest of the game (scroll lag as i move around the map - lag any time trying to build or move units) -- it in localised to me as i know others are playing normally (not internet related) -- i have had this issue on my old PC and now this newer PC as well
this only happens in multiplayer, single player doesnt seem to have this issue.
@N1K, we will discuss your issue on the new thread you created.
