Encountered something ... strange. Today I got a new monitor, 16 : 9, 2560 x 1440. Prior to that I run on 4 : 3, 1600 x 1200. Ofc one of the first things to try was ... CF. Got some problems running it in the new resolution. It showed up in the option menue but - first - didn't work properly :"displaced" menue tags, picture not centered or streched, cut aways on the sides or upper and lower edge. Checked for the newest display and proper VGA drivers ( Catalyst 13.11 beta 9.2 ) : everything fine…

That's almost what I did to get the resolution working at all - I think. Just 've done as you said :speed and thruster drain stay away. ??? BTW : any chance to get a 1920 x 1080 resolution ?That's what the option menue doesn't offers me (took somehting even lower).

Okay Since the 'lil prob remained, I thought it might be due to the fact, that it was the "old" installation with 1600 x 1200.So I deinstalled/reinstalled everything nicely again (becomes quite a "routine" operation ).ANDI changed the resolution in the PerfOptions by hand to 1920 x 1080 with these resultsscreen1.jpg screen4.jpg Then I changed the resolution to my - now - native 2560 x 1440. Strangely the 1920 x 1080 option wasn't available anymore.See what happend :screen7.jpgscreen10.jpgscreen…

what is responsible for adjusting these numbers to the resolution ? The FL engine ? the VGA card driver ?

No hurry on that. You've much more important and pressing things to do - on the mod Since it only affects the showing of speed and thruster drain : only minor and perhaps only me (for what reason ever).Will have to learn to live without - guessing how much thruster fuel is left until dying X-D

Right, but I like to know HOW fast full speed WITH the (different) thrusters is. TBH, thruster drain is the more important info - at least "earlier" ingame, without one of "custom-made" ones But as I said : will learn to live with it.

And ... what resolution do you sport ? Just read the blog you linked. It's mostly about 16:9, with 1960x1080p, as the "biggest" resolution in terms of pixel countCF works fine on 1920 x 1080 resolution without any further "hack" needed.AFAIK it even supports some 21:9 resolution, but I might be wrong on that. What I start to think is, that - perhaps - it might be related to the pixel count the FL engine has to deal with2073600 pixel in 1960 x 10803686400 pixel in 2560 x 1440

And I am grateful for your input. Even though the Craig Mayhew stuff is a bit older. As said : allthe "mayor" graphical things work just great in 2560 x 1440 with CF 1.9. @ my last post :skip the thought. If there would be aproblem for the engine with the pixel count, I think there would/should be randomly changing graphical issues everytime I start the game.
