Default Re: Using ultrawide screen monitor 3440x1440

I have a 4k monitor (it defaults to 5120 x 2880, but I am) running at screen resolution 3840 x 2160 (in general for all my games, most games can't run in these larger screens or if they do the fonts are just too tiny).

While running at 3840 x 2160 in Window mode (no reason to use full screen mode) the game runs splendidly, I also set "Use Large fonts (CD only)" and everything is fine and dandy!

While running at 5120 x 2880 in Windows mode and using "Use Large fonts" everything is just fine as well (the font are a little bit smaller at the default zoom level (and in the in game screens (show unit details etc.) but zooming in just one level clears that up. Its quite a thing to behold at 5120 x 2880, even zoomed out all the way.

Essentially I prefer the 3840 x 2160 resolution since I play a few other games that work well at this res. (GG WitE/WitW, and TOAW, although I had to tweak TOAW's font.ini to handle 4k screen resolution).

YMMV

I can only imagine. I had thought of getting a 28 inch 4k screen but the computer I have will not handle 4K . 5120 x 2880 is mind-boggling considering this game was originally released to run 640x480. I'd ask for a screen shot but it would be 4x more than I could view and ....again, mind-boggling to think of the game running at that res on a screen 4 x the one I have now. My Sony 4k TV is 55 in and can screen link but my computer can't. Maybe next year I'll think about a new one
