Title: Screen problem
Post by: Furzel on January 10, 2007, 10:48:10 AM
firstly, congratulation for this game, truly great and better than most of the others free fps and lot off not free fps :-)

I have a small problem in openarena, my lifepoints, weapons messages are well placed on the screen but , I only have a really small screen for the game itself.

a litle sheme to help you :

The black area is black , and I see the whole game in the litle white area so it's not easy to play !

So I was wondering if anybody know how to fix that problem, if you need more explanation just tell me and I'll try to explain.

Sorry for the sheme but i'm using ubuntu on live CD so I can't lauch OA. And sorry for the bad english because i'm french so using computer vocabulary is not simple !

+++ and good frag !

Err.. where are you running OpenArena?

System specs & console logs would be nice to see as well.

In game: just press the "+" key.

In options: I can't remember... but there should be an option for screen size.

Goto www.getdeb.net  they have a .deb file there to install OA and it works perfectly.

Haha the reason it's like that is because of the setting in the options, I forget what it's called though, but you can change it easily.

Setup -> System -> Display -> Screen Size
