Unable to change full-screen resolution in DayZ
Need More Info, NormalPublic

Description

Problem is simple but pretty important, in the options menu some players, including myself, have very limited options for the resolutions. In my case I have only these 2 options ( https://imgur.com/a/9PyKMhc ). This problem also exists in the 0.62 build. The main problem is that being unable to change the full-screen resolution impacts performance substantially.

Here are other reports that I have found regarding this issue:

Changing the config files from the Documents folder from Read only doesn't appear to help.
This happens only in DayZ. Games like Arma 2 don't have this problem.

Hello marcu.alexioan.
What are the native resolutions supported by your screen? As the current system allows only resolutions that are native to your screen.
