Hi all! Playing on an old laptop with 17” screen. Got a question about resolution- is it possible to get a higher resolution than 1920×1080?
Kind regards!

if your display supports higher resolution then you can use that ingame also
if your screen is 1080p then you can't go higher with the game unless you do some scaling tricks

On the topic of resolution - is there a way to run windowed mode in a wider ratio than my monitor? the options in game only allow me to do it as a narrower window.

try modifying the resolution in the
on RoR directory
Code: Select all
<Mode window_frame="false" fullscreen="true" />
<FullScreen width="2560" height="1440" bitdepth="32" />
<Windowed width="2560" height="1440" bitdepth="32" />
i haven't tested but maybe if you just add custom resolution numbers into it, it can be achieved.

No, the format limits the resolution of the monitor. You can set the resolution to wide, but if the screen is not wide you will have to play through windowed mode.
Yep, windowed mode is what I am after but in a wider ration than my monitor. I used to get it to do it on SWTOR.
I changed the resolution as suggested above in the .xml file but that game changed it to the closest one it had ran before and then over wrote the file.
Any thoughts?
