Client not working

good evening everyone,

I am getting a strange error from my PC running Windows 10 home.

"an invalid parameter passed to the returning function, or the object was not in a state that permitted function to be called. the value is equal to the E_INVALIDARG standard COM return value."

my screen resolution is set to 3200*1800 and i changed the Somadevlauncher to same, no dice.

when i work the in-window version, it runs, with off colors.

help? please?

ok, client is working with 800*600, but shows up as square with plenty of dead black space - when i try any other resolution, character shifts to bottom right of screen and i cant see the game frame. any ideas, or beggars cant be choosers?

game_resolution needs to be less than or equal to resolution if you have resolution_up_scale enabled.

are you trying to run fullscreen or window mode?

try

[launcher]
serverVersionFile=server.ver
patchURL=http://myth-of-soma.com/launcher/
serverIP=51.79.98.95
window=1
resumeDownload=1
resolution_width=1800
resolution_height=1200
always_draw=1
show_chat_history_timestamp=1
fps_cap=1
fps_cap_limit=60
chat_font_size=20
game_resolution_width=1400
game_resolution_height=1000
resolution_up_scale=1
