Does SC4 on Steam support 16:9 resolution, or 1366x768, who knows?

Just need to put custom resolution line in the Launch Options.

-CustomResolution:enabled -r1920x1080x32

Or your resolution of choice. Not every arbitrary resolution is necessarily covered, but the standard 16x9's seem to work.

Since the client for Steam is used to start SC4, it may require the command line parameters specifying in the dedicated dialog box within. This is available on each game's properties in your Steam library, where a custom resolution can be entered in the same format as the target shortcut (in Windows). The notable difference is there's no path specified to the game's executable, as this is processed as an instruction once starting SC4 from Steam.


The article here explains:

Set Launch Options

  1. Right-click on the game title under the Library in Steam and select Properties.
  2. Under the General tab click the Set launch options... button.
  3. Enter the launch options you wish to apply (be sure to separate each code with a space) and click OK.
  4. Close the game's Properties window and launch the game.


And here's the best screenshot I could find:

Hope this helps! *:)
