When I open Last Resort I keep getting a lot of error messages... One is "No 16 bit screen modes found that Swat 3 requries! Try setting the LastResort.exe in Windows 7 compatibility mode and then restart the launcher."

Attachment not found



I already have Windows 7 compatibility mode selected.

Attachment not found



If i select the 32 bit options nothing shows up. And if I try to Save and Launch Swat 3 it says "Sorry but no valid resolutions can be found to run Swat 3."

Attachment not found



Most likely due to all the problems prior any suggestions. The game works fine with out the Last Resort mod but the graphics are horrible and are really bad on my monitor. Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated and thanks in advance.

Thanks for letting me know. A very tiny portion of people have this problem and I would love to resolve this. This problem is one of my motivations for wanted to update the Last Resort launcher's code to Visual Studio 2015.

Just for the record please post what Operating System, and video card you are using.

Do you have anything but the default setting on your video card for scaling? I know that in the past if someone messed with the scaling setting it screws up the Last Resort Launcher from detecting resolutions. The image below shows the default settings from my Nvidia card (found in NVIDIA CONTROL PANEL > DISPLAY > ADJUST DESKTOP POSITION AND SIZE):

I have Windows 10 Home
My Graphics Card is a Radeon R9 270x 2GB OC Edition.

As far as my display settings I have tried in many different resolutions and different Hrz.
And I haven't messed with any of the setting in the graphics card as far as that goes just the resolution and the Hrz.

Again thanks for info. Windows 8/10 has been a pain in my arse ever since it was released in terms of this mod.

Obviously I need a new method for detecting screen resolution since it seems to fail on some systems.

At this point I don't know what to suggest to fix this. The only thing I could suggest is try Windows XP SP3 compatibility setting instead of Windows 7.

Do you mind if I email you when I finish the new version of the Last Resort Launcher using Visual Studio 2015? Your machine is the exact sort of system I need to test it on to see if the problem is resolved. I am slowly pluggin away at the redesign so don't expect it to be done for a month or so.

I have tried putting Last Resort in every single options my Computer had for compatibility mode and tried starting it with the same results.

YES! Please email me and I will gladly check it out for you.
Do you need my email?
