Hello.
I'd like to suggest adding the 1024x600 resolution, present in many netbooks today, to the ones possible to choose at the beginning of the game (if that option appears in this game).
Thanks.
1024x600 resolution
in Avadon Series
Posted
Hello.
Both Geneforge 5 and Avernum 6 can run in 1200x800, 1200x768 and 1024x768. The difference between these resolutions, from what I have seen, is that a bigger or smaller dungeon area is visible in the screen, without any scaling or change to the aspect ratio of the artwork.
From the Avadon snapshots, I think the graphic engine seems similar to the one in these games.
So, it seems to me quite easy to implement 1024x600 by showing a bit less of screen. Of course, the game will be less pleasant than with a bigger resolution, but I think it's better than not being playable. The biggest issue to me seems to be the amount of text that can be shown on screen, but perhaps that could be solved with a smaller font.
