Title: Lazarus resolution question
Post by: Dariusz on March 19, 2003, 11:52:12 pm

Lazarus question:

Background:

Sometime when launching a game in Lazarus, exiting the game back to the Lazarus game menu, then exiting to windows XP, the Windows XP desktop resolution changes (to a larger resolution 1024 x 768? from 640x480). My default Windows XP desktop resolution is 640x480.

Question:

I want to use the Wellsgardner D9200 monitor with the Lazarus front-end, but since the monitor only supports a maximum resolution of 640 x 480, due to the background description above, I will have problems.

Is a solution to overcome the problem to edit the Lazarus.ini file, to make the following change from:

xRes= 1024
YRes= 768

To:

xRes= 640
YRes= 480

Any help would be kindly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Dariusz

I had the same problem and solved it in the same fashion.  I actually think Lazarus looks more "arcadey" at the lower resolution...

I have Lazarus set to use a marquee list instead of a text list... I'm pretty happy with the way it came out!  Thanks again, Howard!
