resolution

[Thomas Duklain]

So I've been scouring the internet for ways to zoom or increase the size of the window. I've had to settle for just going fullscreen which is fine but I like being able to pop over to UOAM or something else without having to alt+enter out of UO then back in. I've started playing in a maximized window but damn it's so small I only really like doing that when I'm crafting or something. Anyway, I've seen mention of 3rd party programs that change something having to do with resolution but I haven't been able to find any. So, does anyone have a clue if it's possible or not?

UO Iris... Yummy (probably not really an answer to the resolution bit, but UO Iris WAS kinda awesome last I checked it out)

[Zoram]

aye, IRIS is swell, for lack of a better word.
If we were to use a newer client, 4.x or better we could use Razor, which I believe lets you tweak the window size

Once upon a time, I believe the nvida drivers used to have an option to have custom zoom settings for specific applications, sadly it doesn't seem to be in the current incarnation.

[Thomas Duklain]

Ok, if I find UO Iris and get it working are we allowed to use it in WoD?

[Xanola]

We used to be able to, back in the day, as it didn't effect gameplay.

[Thomas Duklain]

It says it requires Mondain's Legacy for 3d. I don't want 3d but can we use ML for WoD? I have AoS and Gold I can try it with either of those.

[Xanola]

I don't remember the specifics... I just remember using it once... I even remember where I was (the SE bridge out of Brit)

[Thomas Duklain]

Ok, I guess sadly we can't use this. It doesn't work with encrypted clients and not for client version below 4.0.0.

[Zoram]

No, currently you can only use a 2.x client with WoD to maintain the encryption. If I can find enough parts I'll put together a test box that Laephis can throw a clone of the server on to test out additional clients. If he is interested of course. We all have jobs too!
