Fullscreen doesn't work with 1280x960.
« on: January 17, 2013, 04:08:37 pm »

I recently discovered this game & then downloaded it, I went to change my settings to full screen 1280x960 and full-screen enabled & It just puts me in windowed mode?
All my drivers are up to date & cannot find anything else on the interent to help me out. I read somewhere in the files "Couldn't set OpenGL 1280x960x32 video mode: No video mode large enough for 1280x960 Falling back to windowed mode!!"

I don't understand, please help.

Try pressing F11.  It switches between full and windowed mode.

That doesn't work. I've tried it.

My screen resolution is 1366 x 768, is there any way I can make it full screen & HD at that resolution?

Your screen resolution being lower than the resolution you tried to run UQM at would be the problem. It's not possible to use a resolution bigger than the native resolution of your monitor.

Why not just use 1024x768? That would fit your screen vertically and (depending on your video card) either stretch the image horizontally or pillarbox it.
