tsakalicius Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 You need to add that line in SkyrimPrefs.ini located in My document/MyGames/Skyrim or something. I don't use win 7 so figure it yourself, pleasa:D). Look for the line:[Launcher]bShowAllResolutions=0uLastAspectRatio=2 And add it like this:[Launcher]bShowAllResolutions=0uLastAspectRatio=2bEnableFileSelection=1 Good luck. :psyduck: Worked in WIN7,Thanks!

rydout Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Yeh worked for me too, first i was in the appdata section under my profile name as i think one person suggested, and it was already there, the line... I had to add the lines to the um pfff forget, to make them show up in the data files section... Sry can't think of the name of the file, the instruction to do this was in the rwt - realistic water textures mod. Thanks all for the replies, they helped!

luxwing0go Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 The short and sure version for anyone still having troubles: edit the Skyrim.ini in your Game Saves folder. Mine didn't even have the line in it - had to add it. Thanks for the help finding the source of my problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhort Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Try setting the option to " 0 " and then loading the launcher. While the launcher is loaded, change it back to " 1 " and save the file. Then close the launcher, and then reopen it. Might work, might not. Let's hope?It worked!! Thxx!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flight707 Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 I had the same problem as you but this did the trick. You need to add [Launcher]bShowAllResolutions=0uLastAspectRatio=2bEnableFileSelection=1 around the middle or somewhere ( keep looking) of the SkyrimPref.ini that is in your My Games folder (C:\...\My Games\Skyrim), NOT in the installation folder!

Zaflis Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 (edited) I have win7, this didn't work for me, also when I try to change it to "0" it says access is denied after I click save, I'm running as admin, also, I tried running in compatibility mode for xp to see if I could get any differet result, and got none. please please help!!!!!!- Go to "...Documents\My Games\Skyrim\"- Right click "SkyrimPrefs.ini" and open properties- Make sure that "read only" is ticked off- Open "Start menu" and in the search field type "notepad" (Do not click anything yet)- Right click notepad shortcut and click "Run as admin"- With now opened norepad, open "Documents\My Games\Skyrim\SkyrimPrefs.ini"- Search for [Launcher] section and make sure this isbEnableFileSelection=1 U need to paste [Launcher]bEnableFileSelection=1on top...That's exactly what you must NOT do. bEnableFileSelection is in there already, all you need to do is change 0 into 1. ... and make sure bEnableFileSelection is just once. Do a text search if unsure. Like if it was in 2 instancesbEnableFileSelection=1....bEnableFileSelection=0would mean problems Edited December 25, 2011 by Zaflis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
