Post by: s8n187 on May 03, 2014, 09:45:45 am

This is a widescreen game... AFAIK it only ever displays in 16:9 and if you try to run it at a 4:3 resolution it will appear letterboxed.

The video you linked is a widescreen video which is why it fills the whole screen.

What resolution do you have it set to?

Are you using some kind of third party loader software that forces a resolution?
Try setting a different resolution there.

FWIW most TTX games have an external config file that allows you to set the resolution. This is useful if you're launching games from a front end application without a GUI launcher.
