(WinXP) Some "unique" resolutions not working correctly.

Post by Agor » Fri 24.04.2009, 19:02

Using these parameters:

Code: Select all

mangclient-sdl --width 1024 --height 600 --fullscreen
(I have an eee pc and this is my default resolution).

The bug:
Mirror screen gets cut at the end (actually start), so information comes a bit late. The Term-4 (chat) isn't seen at all.

Solution:
In smaller/special height (atleast) resolutions the Term-4 and Mirror screens could be a bit shorter in height than in normal resolutions so that they could fit within the screen.

(SDL)

Doesn't changing the font size help with this? It help on my small laptop.

Right, here's how:
If you wish to use the SDL (single window) client on a lower resolution such as 1024x768 run with:
./mangclient --width 1024 --height 768 --hexfont font/misc6x13.hex --fullscreen

Sorry if I posted in the wrong section as this might be more of a technical problem than a bug, anyway thanks flamy, I'll try that a bit later.
