Screen size issues with ED4

[Justin]

I installed everything, and the game works great, save for some interesting txt usage.

I do have a problem with the screen size though, which is always full screen, and displays all of the action in a small box. I think it res' down to 800*600, and I cannot change any screen options. They are shaded out in the game, and when I change them in the actual config, it does nothing.

Duurrrr, any help would be really appreciated.

Tried and failed

IRC said:

<Ririko> someone tell this dude
<Ririko> to put display at 16bit color or whatever

Try that?

There's no way to make the play window larger?

[Justin]

I totally forgot about this. I'll pop the CD in today to try rx782's suggestion. And no, I can't even get the game to go into windowed mode.

rx782 - Thanks for the info, that was the solution to my problem. My graphics settings had a box checked to maintain aspect ratio with my monitors native res. Because of this, I was getting the small box when putting it on the lowest setting, and it would not switch to 16 bit colours. Everything is fixed now, and I really appreciated it.
