The forum is locked. These are the original blitzbasic.com forums, kept so they can still be read. No new topics, replies or edits can be made here. To join in, head over to the Blitz3D+ forums.

Some of the other games I've run across ask you whether or not to keep savegames/profiles etc. during the uninstall. Either way, erroring out the uninstaller looks unpolished.

Agreed. I will look into this and see what I can do to tidy it up.

also, I realize that this is still a work-in-progress, but I also couldn't help noticing that the .exe itself doesn't appear to have an icon embedded in it, it just shows the plain vanilla 'application' logo in the start menu.

I have no icon yet because I haven't designed one yet. There will be one in the final version, as well as later test versions should I have one designed by then.

Anyway, I had never seen any of these:
- 720x576 (Was selected as the default resolution)
- 720x480
- 800x480
- 848x480

Yeah, I noticed this on my system as well. I may filter the list further by just looking for the more common 4:3, 16:9 and 16:10 ratios. I'll also include 5:4, but treat it as 4:3 on the initial start-up, aa the user can always change it later.

720x576 is actually a 5:4 ratio that matches the 1280x1024 you use for your desktop, which is why the game singled out that resolution. Can you get that resolution to work at all, by setting it from your desktop? If so, what bitdepth and hz setting did you use?

Thanks for your help.
