Windowed/Fullscreen option?
« on: November 25, 2007, 04:56:22 am »
It would be nice if there were an option to run the game in fullscreen (IE it covers your whole screen, not just maximized) I get sick of running the game in a higher resolution, and being left with a huge ugly grey part at the bottom of my screen T_T

Also, maybe more menus with buttons that cover commands, with confirmation messages for the more important ones such as buying/unclaiming land, so it makes it easier for new people to know what to do (I have known quite a few people who quit because they hated asking for commands all the time, and couldnt remember them /sigh)

Oh wait, another thing. I made an appeal on one of the servers over a year ago which never got answered -

Allowing a player to give someone rights to specific square(s) on your land, so if you were letting a player freeload with you, it would be possible to give them their own little space and not worry about them poking through all of your chests.

He has made the screen bigger (19x19) so the resolution wont leave a big ugly gap anymore

Yeah, but it will be a year at the very least until Powerfox sees a change in resolution of the game client window... unless he or mick does 1 of 2 things...

1.  Powerfox plays Chaos...

2.  Mick puts the improved window client that is on Chaos currently into the rest of the worlds.

Another reason I like RPGWO is because I can go Semi-AFK and still be training.

It will never be a true full screen game. That requires direct X and I ain't redoing all the GUI.

I made it so it fits in a 1024x768 screen. I plan to be able to maximize it and get a larger view for those who have larger resolution.
That doesn't mean they will be able to see farther. Just the stuff beyond their sight would be grayed out or something.

I plan to get rid of a lot of the chat commands and make them a menu or button or something. Like guilds, land, mail, etc.

Single space land rights? gah, ok, I'll put that on my list.

Want a big rpgwo screen?
Make your monitor 800X600 and hit maximize.
I don't know if it works for all computers, but I used to get one bigass full screen. Light Elf remembers. XD
EDIT: Yep. Still works. Mickey, why not add an option to change the resolution and such (either in the startup of some sort or separate program that keeps settings (logs))?

Because 800X600 does give you a nice screen.

Or, you could just buy a new monitore with an awesome resolution and detail so the size doesnt bother you?
