Can't set resolution to 1920x1080

Postby Shad0wSnip3r » Sun Aug 12, 2012 4:11 am

I just got new 1080p monitor, up from my laptop's 1280x800 screen. I go into the settings to change the resolution to 1920x1080, but then when I play the game it doesen't work. I go check the settings file and the resolution is always set back to 1280x960. Why?

The maximum resolution for this version of the game is 1280x800. This will change with the release of the OpenGL client (see viewtopic.php?f=264&t=13109 for more information about development).

mine goes up to 1280x1024. I reading the game wiki that this is so that people with big monitors won't have an 'unfair' advantage over those playing on a tiny netbook screen. well i paid $800 for my 2560x1440 monitor, and my game window is like 7" across. That's hardly 'unfair' when netbook gamers (10.1" @ 1280x800) have a bigger screen!

you can make it go full screen by changing the config file settings- windowed=0 and it'll go full screen (except mine just says "input not supported"), or in windowed mode you can force it full screen by clicking the edges and dragging it bigger. However that will turn Windows Aero off and you'll lose your personalized theme settings (doesn't apply to Win XP).
