How to change the size of the gaming window?
Hihi,

I'm wondering how it is possible to change the size of the gaming window. I have tried using setup.exe but it does not affect the Hero client window.

Thanks!

Well, you can only change the size with the Setup.exe so, did you make sure your options were still changed after you closed your setup ? Checking a second time isn't bad.

Another solution you could use it to use ROExt, as it allows you to set any size you want to the game. It requires diving a bit into configurations, but it's not really hard to understand.

Right click on Setup.exe and go into properties, set it to run as administrator, hit Ok.

Open Setup.exe by double-clicking it, change your options and hit Ok, it should have saved it. Make sure the client is closed when you change the options.

If you want a more custom solution depending on your screen's resolution.. from the iROwiki (this is what I did):

1. Open up "regedit" (type this into your windows search)
2. If you are running 32-bit follow this path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Gravity Soft\Ragnarok

If you are running 64-bit follow this path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Gravity Soft\Ragnarok

3. Change the HEIGHT and WIDTH values

Hi, thanks for the replies.

I have tried out the different options that has been posted except for the ROExt option suggested by Fyrus as I couldn't find the file.

The setup.exe file seems to be unrelated to the Hero client in both administrator account or the account I am using.

It was a bit of a hassle but I figured out how to change my window size using MonkeyPunch's suggestion. First, I edited the height and width values through my administrator account. Then I had to run the client as administrator in my user account. And finally the results panned out.

I'm using Windows 7 and running RO through a user account rather than the administrator's account.

Thanks again!

Maybe you won't need it anymore then, but if anyone wants it, here's the file
