Hello everyone,

I just started using GliDOS to run Tomb Raider, and I have a technical question.

Is there any way to get this to run in other resolutions besides the five options listed? I would really like to be able to run this at 1400x1050, as that is the only standard resolution I can get to scale properly on my widescreen monitor.

Right now I'm running in a window, which works OK. It's great just to be able to play Tomb Raider, so I'm happy. I just thought I'd ask, as I would like to run full screen if I can.

No there isn't, but in Direct3D mode Glidos can use a subarea of the screen without a mode change. So Select "Direct3D", "Full Screen", "1280x1024" and "Inhibit mode change".

Fantastic. Not only does it display centered & scaled perfectly, but the quality of the image improved as well.

Thanks!

Yeah, that's the main advantage really, by keeping the monitor in it's native resolution, you get the best image quality.
