Hi guys

i wonder if i can change the resolution in the setup.ini or anywhere else. Hope you can help me.

As there is no way to make a game at present, only a test run from the software, best bet is to change res to suit before you run FPSC. Of course you might be able to do that, I just changed it manually myself.

The current resolution depends on your desktop resolution. I keep it in Windows Mode because I don't need to throw away all the video memory allocations, allowing you to bounce from map editor to test game very quickly. If we went Full Screen Mode during test game, I would have to re-load all the textures and geometry (or worse, store them in system memory and recover the data that way). If there is interest, I might experiment with a mode which DOES load in the assets again so you CAN bounce from an IDE at 1360x768 and run test game at 800x600, but it's usually easier and more convenient to change your host resolution as the reasons for wanting the test game to be 800x600 are the same reasons to have the map editor also run at that resolution as they both suffer from the same performance penalties during rendering.

changing the resolution of your monitor before you start reloaded does work and will give you more fps, but in the test game the lower res. makes the vegetation and terrain look terrible

If you can post a screen shot, and point out specifically what is bad, we can perhaps look at some solutions to improve the render at lower resolutions. I usually do all my development work at 1360x768.

thanks for the answers. My Resolution is 1600x900 and i think that the test game looks very pixelish (is this a word? sorry my english isnt the best). I just thought i could improve the visuals a little bit with a higher resolution in the testgame.

Send me a shot at 1600x900 that you think is 'pixelish' and point out specifically which parts of the shot are wrong, so I can get a better idea of the feedback. Thanks!
