SE4 in higher resolutions + OT: floppy disks

Spoo · #1 May 24th, 2003, 06:33 AM

Is there any way to stretch SE4 to fill the screen for resolutions higher than 1024x768?

IIRC there is no offical way to do this, but are there any sneaky computer tricks/utilities I can try? (other than manualy switching my resolution everytime I play)

Even a utility to switch screen res to 1024x768 when SE4 is launched, would be keen and nifty.

There are some freeware's that do that, search on google for it.

For 9x/me, just make a batch file with the following

:: Set 8 bit colour on 800x600 display
rundll deskcp16.dll,QUICKRES_RUNDLLENTRY 800x600x8

:: Set 16 bit colour on 800x600 display
rundll deskcp16.dll,QUICKRES_RUNDLLENTRY 800x600x16

:: Set 24 bit colour on 1024x768 display
rundll deskcp16.dll,QUICKRES_RUNDLLENTRY 1024x768x24

I sometimes switch to 1600x1200 just for the large battle replays, since tactical combat mode does use it, and even then, you can't see everything at once.
