1920x1080 resolution, also known as 1080p.

Can't be too much to ask for can it? Lots of oddball resolutions are supported, but not the one that's arguably the most standardized since 1280x1024.

1366x768 isn't in there ether and just about every 16:9 laptop screen I have seen has been that resolution. It was also was in there at one point.

Yes I know that I can run it in that resolution with the command line but it would be nice not to have to.

Oh hey Kaerius in the meantime you can write up a bat file using this to run it in 1280x1024.

Code: [Select]
./ufo +set vid_mode -1 +set vid_width 1280 +set vid_height 1024

Well I wanted to run it in 1920x1080, but I guess the principle still applies.

Sorry about that chief. I have no idea where I got those numbers from. Must of mixed a 4:3 resolution in there somehow or something.

I have the same display resolution and have had similar issues with not having it show up in the lists in the game.  I personally don't handle the part of the code that takes care of this sort of thing, but I was told in IRC that such a resolution *is* (or should be) in the lists, but might not show up if the game doesn't detect it as one that your video card can handle.

If that's accurate, it means the game has a video card feature detection issue of some sort, which is a bug, and should therefore go in the bug tracker (when making a bug report, please reference (give a link to) this forum thread).

That would explain why so many resolutions are supported except the ones that I have.

Yeah my 1080p monitor(16:9) and Geforce 660 GTX only had 16:10 and 4:3 resolutions listed. Not one single 16:9 resolution. It's like the code specifically excluded the ones my monitor supports. (But it listed stuff like 1440x900, 1920x1200, 2560x1600, 2048x1536, etc).
