    Hi,

    I was reading through the forums where staff members said ''Going to 1366x768 is impossible''. I just want to know why that is. Why can't we have these increased resolution? I understand it's a lot of work. But impossible? As the #1 private server you'd expect that this type of work should be a good idea for the servers attractiveness.

    I understand that not everyone wants this resolution, but with some simple engineering you can let your players chose both.

    It's not impossible - I think you may be referencing a post I made in 2014 where I said it was almost impossible, but a lot has changed since then.

    We are working on a higher resolution client which should be released in the near future, but I'm sorry to say that we won't be choosing 1366x768 as a resolution. We are working on changing to a 1024x768 client as this keeps a similar look and feel to the game due to it using the same aspect ratio, while still allowing you to see a lot more information on the screen.

    is the higher resolution going to apply to full screen only? or is it going to apply to both windowed and full screen?
    also, is the resolution going to be selectable? would be a nightmare to multiclient huge windows

    Meanwhile if you are looking for a larger screen resolution for now, you might be interested in this guide made by @Dave Deviluke

    It applies to windowed mode and full-screen mode. We don't currently have plans to support other resolutions once implemented, just 1024x768.
