Can I run Freelancer at 1024x1280 resolution? - Boronic - 12-16-2007

Simple question.

Is it possible to run Freelancer at my screen's optimal resolution?

... Widescreen?... Ish?

In a nutshell . No
you can alter the size in your perfoption.ini but the graphics get distorted around the staus bars

I belive you're talking about 1280x1024; the same resolution as mine. The answer is Yes, but you won't be able to see parts of the HUD. It can be changed in your PerfOptions file.

Alternatively, you can just run FL in windowed mode. To do that, just add a ' -w' to the end of the Target line under Prefences for your Shortcut (add it just like you would if you were adding the ip for the server).

Yeah, I know how to run in Windowed mode, but I prefer fullscreen myself.

And, shame it doesn't quite work right... Would it be possible for the Disco team to implement it properly into the next version?

... ehm...

I run it in 1280*960... that way you see everything right..... I added this resolution as a custom one in the nvidia control panel application.

Yeah, if we were able to fix such issues (damn harcodes), we'd have even widescreen resolutions available (though it isn't impossible right now, but it looks awful, believe me). I also run at 1280x1024, it's fine as it is, no HUD parts chopped off or else.
