Increase resolution?

Really have enjoyed what I’ve seen so far but I’m really hoping you will be adding the ability to choose the screen resolution. I’ve read the post that the resolution is set automatically based on the video card but I’m pretty certain the card I have can do much better.

I believe its running at 1024x768 and looks terrible. I have an AMD Radeon HD 5900, i know its a few years old but its pretty powerful and I run games at 1920x1200 all the time without a hiccup.

I would be happy even if I need to set it via a config file! :slight_smile:

Thanks

This is unsupported and may be undone on every update, but you can edit the first line of data/configs/basic.txt if you want to change resolution. Long term plans include the typical graphics setting menu that games have, but for now this is a way for “advanced” users to change it.

I just tried the trick since I upgrade my monitor to a 25" 2K 2560x1440 and a beefy video card.https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10205336312391421&set=ms.c.eJwzNDAyMDU2NjM2NDK2NDQxMtQzRBIxBYoYAAB8Mgbm.bps.a.10204131937642805.1073741854.1356628526&type=3&theater
