Title: 2080X1024 resolution?
Post by: Kegel on July 20, 2005, 02:16:17 AM
Is there any way to force Gish to run at 2080X1024?  I just got a new ViewSonic 19 inch LCD and thats the native res.  Currently running at 1024X768.  

If it isnt possible...would this be a possible addition to a furire patch?

Great game by the way.  I purchased to full version.  Never fails...I find these independent games to be more enjoyable..for longer..than any games purchased at EB from the big name producers.  Bravo.

You can edit gish.cfg using a hexeditor. The 4-byte integers starting at byte 4 and 8 are width and height. They should be:
Code Sample
20 08 00 00  00 03 00 00

for 2080x1024. Note that Gish always fills the entire screen with 4/3 content.

Gish won't run after doing so.  I made a backup but I edited like you said. 100%.  Could you help me?
Thanks.
Need screen size for my new :D screen.

What did you put in the file? If you just copied the bytes I gave, those are for 2080x1024, which is not going to work if your screen/renderer doesn't accept that. ;-)

I did copy that.  My card works fine on that and my monitor requestes that or I get an annoying blue box on my screen telling me to change it.

EDIT:  If I upload my cfg you you change it for me.

Then use:
Code Sample
00 05 00 00  00 04 00 00

Note that 1280/1024=5/4 and not 1024/768=4/3, so you'll get a bit of distortion. If your screen leaves black borders when the aspect ratio doesn't match, I recommend 1280x960 (1280/960=4/3).
