Good day!
I recently bought a widescreen monitor, and when playing Heroes 3, everything is stretched, which is unpleasant to look at. After a few minutes, my eyes start to get tired, which is not good...
Is there a way to change the resolution in Heroes 3 or optimize it for widescreen monitors? Does anyone know?

When you press the F4 key, the game switches to windowed mode, which is very inconvenient for playing. When you click on the Display tab, you cannot change the resolution; you can only switch to fullscreen mode, and everything is still stretched... Maybe there is another option?

Why is it inconvenient? In my opinion, it's actually better because everything becomes clearer...

You can't change the resolution by clicking on the Display tab,

That's strange... :confused: What resolution do you have set in Windows?

I have a Samsung 19 and it doesn't stretch the image much:confused:

Ameno is right, from my point of view. It stretches the image terribly on widescreen monitors. And in windowed mode, it's really too small.

to OlegRS:
You probably mean a regular monitor. But Ameno is talking about a widescreen monitor (like 16x9).

No, it's Wide. If I'm not mistaken, it's wide 961 BW (1440*900). I wouldn't say it stretches the image too much, but there are distortions, of course. Maybe I'm just used to it, and besides, I enjoy the process, and the minor inconveniences don't bother me much.

1. No, it's specifically a wide screen. If I'm not mistaken, it's a wide 961 BW (1440*900).

2. I wouldn't say it stretches the image too much, but there are definitely some distortions.

1. Yes, that monitor is indeed a widescreen.
2. But on my work laptop, it stretches the image terribly... I would also like to find a solution to this problem!

The same problem (I'm playing on a laptop). I've been looking for a solution everywhere I could think of, but with no effect. If anyone finds anything, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
