Stolen from Defiant:

(answers resolution problems....)

Quote

right click on your short cut

select properties

look at where it says "target"

you should see the command line like this

"C:\Program Files\The Ur-Quan Masters\uqm.exe"  

to modify the resolution, pass this command after the quotes, like this

"C:\Program Files\The Ur-Quan Masters\uqm.exe"  -r800x600  

you can change to whatever resolution you like as long as you keep the -r command

all examples are based on the default install location.

Also, as for your speed problems, I don't know any solutions - it was brought up earlier in the forum.

about your speed problem, you might have the cyborg feature enabled, no, wait, never mind. that would mean you couldnt control your ship. oops my bad.

I think you can enable full screen play using the "-f" command
line option.

As stated above, open the shortcut for UQM and append "-f" to
the command line box.
