AAAAAAARRRRGGG!

I have a 1600 by 1200 display... what do I need to do to play this game in full screen?

If I set resolution to 1600x1200 with or without black space it displays in a box that only takes up about half the screen...

Help!

well, what I do, is leave the default settings alone, and I just resize and zoom out until I get something that I can deal with. it takes a few seconds each time I load up the game, so it's not really a big deal. I thought there was some kind of fullscreen setting somewhere in the init, too. I may be crazy.

I can't zoom out very far, with it zoomed all the way out, DF is a strip across the top half of my screen and doesn't display anything on the lower half.

AHA! So I managed to get it to fill the whole screen by using the zoom function with the 800x600 resolution fonts.

BUT I can't stand the non square tiles... Is there anyway to have my cake and eat it too? (square tiles and full screen)

Or at the very least is there a way to center the screen so it's not stuck in the upper left corner?

There are a whole bunch of square (and other) tilesets on the wiki here.

For fullscreen, go into init.txt and set WINDOWED to NO and fill in FULLFONT:X with your new tileset (though you may find fullscreen to be cumbersome for things like checking the wiki or using utilities).

Also, a lot of the menus etc. out of game only fill in the default 50:80(?) dimensions, and that can't be changed.

AH! You are a saint, the problem was that the menu wasn't affected by my changes so it looked like nothing was working, now I shall STRIKE EARTH!
