Can't change the game's resolution

[Alaksion]

I've just downloaded the perfectly modded skyrim modpack, it's pretty cool and it works fine, but the only problem is that i can't figure out how to change the game resolution to my native screen resolution (1600x900). Both skyrimprefs and the game launcher are set to 1600x900, but the game starts in higher resolution and it's pretty annoying to play. Here's my modlist (generated by MOO)

Thats a lot of mods!

 

But hey, your problem is that mod organizer makes its own skyrimprefs.ini as part of the virtual files system.

First run the game through the official launcher and make all the changes that you want.

Then open %documents%/my games/skyrim/skyrimprefs.ini

open the file and select all text (ctrl-a) and copy (ctrl-c)

now open mod organizer, click on the puzzle pieces at the top, select "ini editor", select "syrimprefs.ini" in the tab,

select all the text, and then paste over it (ctrl-v)

save.
