Hi,

I'm trying to use Stogie's (thanks a lot! [1]) german translation together with cnc-ddraw to achieve pixel-perfect integer scaling.

My monitor is 1920x1200, so ideally I'd set the resolution to 960x600 in the JA2.ini.

However, the older 1.13 based exe that VR uses still has the resolution check enabled - it throws an error when the resolution is not supported by your monitor (which is true). This check does not exist anymore with 1.13 since 2021 (see [2] for reference).

Is it possible to somehow run VR (DE exe) without the resolution check? Then I could enjoy pixel-perfect 16:10 with VR instead of 4:3 (I'm using 800x600 now in the JA2.ini).

Thank you!

FunkyFr3sh from cnc-ddraw was very kind and did it for me, via hex editor, see also https: //github.com/FunkyFr3sh/cnc-ddraw/issues/379 .

Maybe it would be worth an idea to disable the resolution check in the source for future releases, making it easier to fully use your monitor with cnc-ddraw happy

All good. We've been working on an update inbetween that time and a new German exe is available here.
