Resolution?

[ChristopherOdd]

How can I change the resolution in the demo?

There'll be a setup exe file in the game's directory.

For some reason about half of the resolutions that are available in the options menu are unsupported with my Nvidia GTX 460M. I have to play it with the lowest option which is kind of annoying as there are higher resolutions usable with the game. Will there be a fix for this?

You'd have to ask Nvidia, Wadjet Eye didn't have anything to do with your graphics card drivers.

Seriously though, I'm not sure what you want fixed. You said your card doesn't support the higher resolutions, what kind of fix do you expect from the game?

It also depends on what you mean by "higher resolution." The game was made in 320 x 200 resolution, so it's meant to look blocky and pixellated. The game should scale up to fit your monitor when you run it.

When you look at the options exe in the Primordia folder you'll notice options:

graphics filter: and in the drop down menu it lists:


2x nearest neighbor filter
3x and so on. I noticed that when these options are picked the resolution at the top changes slightly.

Now I would hope that playing on a GTX 460 would allow me to pick the highest setting but once I start the game I get an error saying the software cannot start with the selected settings so I am forced to play in windowed mode at the lowest resolution. It was just a thing I was wondering about as the demo allowed me to play in full screen but the full game isn't. Maybe just bad luck on my part.

Have you compared the settings of the demo versus the settings of the full game? The best settings are:

-2x nearest neighbor filter
-Direct3D mode
-and leave all the checkboxes on the right side of the window OFF.

Maybe a stupid question, but what is your monitor's native resolution? Also, does the driver control software for your card allow custom resolutions?
