No resoulution settings?

[vpsycho]

Just bought the game. But there is no option for 1920x1080 resoulution. Do i miss something?

The rights have been transferred/sold over time from one company to another and so on and eventually we have acquired them.

Sorry but a lazy "Let's make this compatible with windows 10 and launch it on Steam" is not going to work for me.

There have been a number of really good relaunches of old games (with Baldur's Gate as the best example) and they all had one thing in common - tweaks to the resolution and the interface.

I loved PT, hope you guys will do a proper brushup of this.

Sorry for the circumstances!

Sorry to write this but there is really no point to buy unsupported version. Here i have a retal version that i bought maybe twenty years ago ...

Make a rematered version of the game and then maybe ...

The game needs fixes. Like errant boys, our criminal people don`t restore they health in the HQ, AI is really easy to beat, AI doesn`t expand their warehouses. THey don`t attack our restaurants...

Crike. Tis over 16 years old. Res that high never existed in games then.

With a good monitor the upscaling should be okay. There are really HUGE differences in quality how the monitors scale low resolutions. It's worth to try to force whether the graphics card to do this or the monitor and choose the best one. The second thing that you could try is to force some AA stuff via the settings of your graphics card. But as this game is not 3D I don't know if it will help.

Sorry but no, and no :)

Old 2D games at 640x480 scale badly even to 1024x768, let alone to 2k or more.

I'm also fairly certain that you can't force AA on old DOS games in 2D.

What this game needs is the devs giving it some TLC and redo the artwork plus improve the UI a bit. Play the remastered versions of the Baldur's Gate games and then go back to the old games to see just how much a difference that makes.

I let my monitor scale it to 2560x1440 at original ratio (black stripes left and right) and it looks okay. But every other screen I have seen scaling was awful the bigger the difference was. On my old Samsung 2494HS it would have looked that bad that i would have prefered to force it to run in a small window at original res of the panel, no matter if the monitor scaled it or the gfx card. The gfx card made it better, but awful enough... I'm still astonished how well the Asus Swift PG278Q does this work. Fortunently 1440 lines means exactly 3 times of 480 lines, but I also scaled stuff with not that even ratios, eg 1080p resolutions up to 1440p.

It's worth to test different settings, especially when the monitor usually does not scale good. I remember scaling 640x480 on the samsung which had 1080 lines: Samsung-Scaling=total crap, Nvidia-scaling: crap, but scaling to a resolution with 960 lines was the best, because every pixel was doubled and a small horizontal black stripe remained. This might be the solution for someone using a screen with 1920x1080.

Samsung screens are total crap period. :)

Not all. Still got one from ~7-8 years ago and it runs totally fine with 2 ms and fullhd. Bought a second monitor and my old Samsung is now my second monitor. Never had problems with it either.

Oh they are good build quality and I generally love their design. I have one sitting here on the desk beside me that is 8 years old or so. But Samsung's colour scheme is way off. You can get it to look good in games but for design it's terrible. I have the same experience with a recent model from a friend. The kicker was my mom's TV which just refuses to do anything but display pale images that are overly sharp. Between the three I gave up on Samsung for anything that has a display on it.

In contrast - buy any Dell screen and it will look good straight out of the box. I also really enjoy the images that HP's newer mid-to-high range models produce.

Bought an iiyama as a new main monitor, which has way darker colors, which I like more. You can really see the Blue windows background as cyan on the Samsung one, but dark blue on the new iiyama one. Besides that it has 144hz, it's my favourite even with colors.
Colors may be a bit off, but back then when I bought it I didn't even know that there could be a difference ^^

[FalconerHG]

Iiyama all but disappeared overhere which is a shame - there was a period where anyone who knew anything about PCs and PC gaming would buy only Iiyama. Good to hear they still rock. :)

Was actually hard to find a decent screen that wasn't overpriced and had a more or less good reputation. First one I got was some kind of already returned screen and I had pink-black stripes all over the screen when I wanted to turn it off so I had to cut the power off. The second one works perfectly fine. Pretty happy with it right now^^
