Hello and I am having a serious problem. No matter what I do when I set my display mode to whatever screen resolution, I constantly get this error. Is there anyway to get past this problem?

it exactly says the following..
Quote: " Runtime Error 1507 - Display using 32 bit is not supported by available hardware at line 0 "


First of all there is no line 0! So what on earth is this? lol

I am kinda new to dbpro just starting to learn so no hardcore/advanced solutions that would be nice

Does it work if you do not use the command?

You should check if the display mode is available or not before setting it. For this, you can use the command check display mode.

You can also retrieve a list of available display modes with the command perform checklist for display modes.

To find out more about the commands, you can press F1 when you're inside the DBP editor to bring up the help pages.

Can you post the code you're using to set the display mode?

Sure thing



EDIT

I fixed it! I just had to goto properties and set the resolution the same as my desktop resolution and it works!

You need to look in the help files and find out how to check for available display modes.

If you expect other people to be able to play your game, you need to design your game to gracefully support multiple resolutions and aspect ratios.

Try using:

set display mode desktop width(),desktop height(),32

That's the best way to do it unless you're going to make an options page with a resolution setting.
