Starcraft 1.16.1 Resolution Problem

Hi, I have a friend who has this resolution problem with starcraft 1.16.1:



His computer doesn't have a video card, so you can't force the image scaling of his screen.
Does anyone know a solution for this?

More details:





Edit:

I found an alternative to be able to play Starcraft 1.16.1 in windowed mode with ChaosLauncher:
http://winner.cspsx.de/Starcraft/

The W-MODE 1.02 plugin must be activated.
ALT + F1 to lock/unlock the mouse in-game.
ALT + F9 to increase or decrease the size of the game resolution.
ALT + F10 to enable/disable being able to move the game window.
ALT + F12 to activate/deactivate the game window buttons, this prevents you from closing it accidentally.

Probably you're trying to record the screen with a wrong prog (I recommend using OBS Studio), also no body uses the old links of ChaosLauncher, its extremely outdated, with almost no plugins or any enhancements, I recommend using BWAPI Revamped as a better alternative. W-MODE plugin is just for quick testing and few other things, you can't easily play games with it, it can also crash the game if not used carefully, again BR is the way to go as it also describe in BR video tutorials how to avoid those mysterious crashes:

NudeRaider -- The visuals are good, the animation is terrible: the movement is off, the impacts in battle scenes have zero weight to it, the lip sync is right up uncanny valley. But yeah, considering what it is it's pretty good overall.

NimoStar -- And Pathfinding in SC1 was not *that* bad, the problem is that it was designed as a flat 2D game like WC1 (and it was in the alpha) and then switched to isometric without changing the base code. So its actually a flat game pretending to be isometric. With the custom competitive maps that use larger ramps and elevation, pathfinding is quite fixed.

NimoStar -- The unlocking and map choice was fine, but mostly in WoL - In HoTS the worst of all units are irrelevant because Kerrigan has infinite summon and stuff. And even in WoL the spaceship instakill map powers are better than units. If I could RTS in my RTS that'd be great.

Nekron shouted: NudeRaider not that the og sc1 campaigns are particularly good mechanically but cmon, SC2 map mechanics are the opposite of fun
There's many parts to it. I think the raw rts gameplay of sc1 is unsurpassed to this day. And I too never liked that sc2 missions always rush you in some way or another, because I like to take my time. However I still have to admit that they way they did it often was always pretty cool. Like lava rising and receding, a huge-ass mothership destroying bases, undead coming at night, just to name a few, those are definitely creative, so I'm sure there's people that liked it. But that's not even what I meant. It's the unlocking of new features and upgrades and choice which map to play next that made it so much more motivating for me.
