    Hello, I've having a problem with the new update: beforehand, I could use fullscreen 1280x800 (since being my native screen resolution). Now with the new update, it automatically converts to 640x480 whenever I select it. It's a really nuisance, can anyone help?

    I'm having this problem too, thanks for tipping me off that windowed mode doesn't do that, though. :3

    Here's a sort of mockup in case the problem isn't obvious (my print screen didn't actually capture the black space so I added that in)

    I imagine they'll have it patched before long. Here's hoping, 'cause it seems to not be an isolated problem.

    I'm not getting the exact same issue as you guys because I'm using 1366x768 fullscreen, but I am getting a problem probably related to it. At this resolution everything looks like it's been scaled up.

    The right side is how the game used to look like to me, and the left side would be sort of how the game looks like now.

    I believe that the scaling in the game isn't working in full screen mode. Full screen mode it can only display at 640x800 for some reason. Your computer then handles either does stretches out the image (meaning for some it will stretch it out to fit the screen and to others) or it won't stretch it out so it'll keep it at 640x800 and centers it instead.

    Kouji: I deliberately set my computer to display things of a small resolution at their actual size, as a personal preference sort of thing. You have your computer stretch them instead (which might warp the image too, which is why I avoid it.).

    I actually have my computer set so that it displays it at the actual size as well (I hate stretching, it just looks ugly) but for some reason it isn't doing that.

    The update didn't do anything in my case. When trying to play in 1920x1080 fullscreen, it still resizes to 1600x900 and stretches everything. Using win7 32b.

    Still getting auto-resized here on win7 64b. Hopefully it will be fixed, as i cannot really play with a messed up resolution.

    It's working now for me too. :3

    Hey Daz, you should still be able to play with a pretty good resolution if you play in Windowed mode, if you still have the same bug.
