Resolutions

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Programming/Resolutions

A lot of the new laptops I've seen aren't 4:3. There's a HP one where the wide screen gives it enough horizontal room on the base that it actually has a full keypad next to the keyboard! And it has a GeForce4Go, and Harman/Kardon speakers, and 802.11g, and... *drool* ...what was I saying?

Oh yeah. Don't expect everyone to have 4:3. Wider resolutions could become much more popular in the future, since they fit our natural field of vision better. I like to test my games in 848 x 480, a strange resolution that my gfx card supports, and my monitor displays with black areas at the top and bottom like a widescreen DVD.
