game screen is so tiny in 1.1
« on: February 12, 2015, 03:21:09 PM »
Finally purchased and downloaded 1.1. Why is the game screen so tiny? I need full screen. In the winsetup, resolution is something like 320/200 or whatever, direct3d9, and no filtering, and windowed is unchecked. So how come the tiny game screen?

below are the default acsetup settings:

[sound]
digiid=-1
midiid=-1
digiwin=1096302880
midiwin=-1
digiindx=0
midiindx=0
digiwinindx=0
midiwinindx=0
usespeech=1
[misc]
gamecolordepth=32
defaultres=2
screenres=0
letterbox=1
defaultgfxdriver=D3D9
gfxdriver=D3D9
titletext=Quest for Infamy  Setup
windowed=0
prefer_sideborders=1
refresh=0
prefer_letterbox=1
gfxfilter=None

This should just be an issue of tweaking the graphics settings to whatever works best for your system.  Try switching from Direct3D9 to DirectDraw and see if that solves the problem.  Similarly, try 2x or 3x scaling options in the graphics filter settings.

This is a problem with a lot of AGS games--I've had the same issues with the Blackwell games before.
Lambonius...Rarely has our moderating team encountered a forumite as consistently unpleasant as you, and you've burned through far more chances than you deserved. A person really has to try hard to be so obnoxious that they're banned from AG, but you've managed it and then some.

I left direct3d9 alone. 3x didn't quite do it. 4x is a nice full screen. T N X
