Widescreen monitors and stretched graphics...
Posted: Fri Feb 17, 2012 10:56 pm
hi. great game here!! really enjoying it... but I was wondering... is there any way to make it force resize to 4:3 with black lines on the side instead of it stretched in full screen mode on a widescreen? really killing the experience with everyone all fat/looking.
I tried out directdraw in windowed mode and yeah, that of course is all sized correctly, but the window is really small. I have a crappy monitor which only supports 1440x900 (highest) so I can't try doubling the resolution or something either. which also leads me to the next point, I guess the filters don't work? because it seems to just want to double the resolution and tells me I can't support the video modes on the hq3x or 2x etc filters.
I realize i can resize my desktop resolution to say... 1024x768 and then run it in directdraw mode as a window so that it fills up more of the screen.. but, is there any better way i can have it set up? because that makes looking at my desktop a real stretched eyesore. lol thankx for any ideas, cheers
