Hey guys I need to know what resolution you guys normally play in. I have found that if people run in 1280x960 or less I can tweak things to make it look much better for them. For people running a higher resolution then this the work I have already done looks the best at that resolution. So what res do you guys run in?
 
Depending on what computer im using, 1920x1080 or 1440x900
 
Since this is something I play on my laptops, usually 800x600 (window), 1024x768 (window) or 1440x900 (fullscreen) depending on the mood and space needed.
EDIT: Always on 4:3 to conserve the original aspect

i play at 1280 x 960, but only because last i checked thats as high as i can get without stretching vertically can go up to 1920 x 1080 if i wanted (and will if i wont get stretching)

Saying using your patch then playing at that resolution is best then? (1080 i mean)
 
The way the patch is right now all the text and gui graphics look best on higher resolutions. On lower resolutions if i modify things it will look better. Might make a selectable option on the installer in one of the later releases.
 
1024x768 for me. I can run it at 1280x1024/960 I just choose not to.
 
1440x900

I'd argue that 16:10 is the most common aspect ratio.

Aali's driver will pillarbox it to 4:3 though, so that doesn't really matter.
 
these are my settings, and my desktop is the same resolution
window_size_x = 1152
window_size_y = 864
preserve_aspect = no
fullscreen = yes

has anyone tried messing with the postprocessing bloom setting? as it is now its too strong and doesnt look good but i think with some tweaking it could be a very cool option
 
I play in 1280x960 or 1280x720 if my HDMI is plugged in.

I screwed about with this for a while. In some cases (using different shaders instead of bloom.post) I was able to create some nice effects, some didn't really work very well. I wasn't sure how to tweak the code in the files to cause much of a difference. If you want to see, its somewhere in the custom graphics driver thread (more towards the start). I wanted cell-shading which I think is entirely possible if you know how to write the code, but I remember someone saying that it would have to be main.frag and vert.frag that had to be changed for that, as opposed to the actual postprocessing shader. If I can find the link to the post I'll put it here.

I run at 720p.

I'd suggest keeping your current work as its more future-proof and ... welll ... its already done ?

Well i would never downgrade the working textures below the 4x the original texture. As for a seperate install for people that run lower resolutions it does seem to make a huge difference in image quality if i tweak them. So it would still be future proof so to speak
