Screen size doesn't fit monitor.
« on: April 17, 2009, 08:52:20 pm »

So, I've decided to give DF another shot using one of the prepackaged versions, but I run into an odd problem when trying to play the game in a fullscreen setting.
The screen is too big to fit the monitor display, no matter what I change the values in INIT to.

How would I go about getting a gameplay window that would fit within the confines of a 1280x1024 resolution without the text displayed off the screen?

Are you changing both the fullscreen resolution values?
There's the first one for a normal game of DF, and there's one for when you have graphics turned on.

Both fullscreen values? I assumed there was only one.
Where are these located under in init?

Changing the graphical tiles did it.  ::) I'm so blind. Problem solved.
