Try going to options, reset all profiles (be sure to back up custom controls somewhere if you have them) then retrying.

Did you raise antialiasing to 8x (Which is right side of display settings) Or are you using custom settings on graphic card driver settings?

edit: Also pic is 1915x1080. I think you are using 1920x1080 monitor. Maybe there can be another problem too.

After profile reset it looks different now but I still don't know if this is the high option.

I also enabled some super anti-aliasing and texture filtering in AMD Catalyst Control Center.
Spectrium: There is no problem with resolution in game I just used MS Paint to edit the image because there was also a screen of my second monitor.

I got same problem, it was due to read only acces on some files.

The only solution i found was :
Untick "read only acces" on the windows folder : C:\Users\YOUR_NAME\Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles.
You need to "Reset all profiles" on Launcher Option menu.

Maybe you need to untick read only aigain, not sure.


Then recreate a profile.

Yes i know you can't have it all read only. But by doing this you will allow some to recover the proper rigth the time to modify/create new profile.
I don't know why but on my computer, PR.exe cannot overwrite .con file if locked last month.

By the way, My document\Project relality\...\Profiles\Default\video.con, what do you have ?

Same question for My document\Project relality\...\Profiles\001\video.con

edit : you can open with notepad

Mine for example :

VideoSettings.setTerrainQuality 3
VideoSettings.setGeometryQuality 3
VideoSettings.setLightingQuality 3
VideoSettings.setDynamicLightingQuality 3
VideoSettings.setDynamicShadowsQuality 3
VideoSettings.setEffectsQuality 3
VideoSettings.setTextureQuality 3
VideoSettings.setTextureFilteringQuality 3
VideoSettings.setResolution 1920x1080@60Hz
VideoSettings.setAntialiasing 4Samples
VideoSettings.setViewDistanceScale 1
VideoSettings.setVideoOptionScheme 2

Don't change the 2 last line, mean 100% view distance and custom option. Other is level of detail (1 for low , 2 for medium and 3 for high).

Both my profile 001 and Defaut got the same setting on video.con
If you have different you need delete and reset all profile.

It might be shader problem. You could try deleting cache folder in My Documents\ProjectReality\mods\bf2 or in My Documents\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2.
