I was able to play the base game just fine at 3440x1440, but since Heart of Gold installed, the game launches in 640x480 on the very lowest settings so text is barely readable. In the options I cannot select any other resolution, the drop down does not activate. :(

Game Version:
Steam Public
Platform:
Windows

Good and prompt reply from the devs. It's nice not to get hit with some horrible patronising questions....Personally I worked around the problem on Friday, so I can't say if the hotfix worked for me or not

Hello guys, I found a solution to the problem ...

follow the instructions.


Cit. me(xD)


I have solved this problem as well:

1) click options> check "Window Mode"

2) enlarged the window (1920x1080p) .. (the top button on the right)

3) changed the resolution from 640x480 to 1920x1080

and I removed the check "window mode"

save


enjoy


Confirmed, works for me as well!

Hello


I have exactly the same problem on Mac OS 10.10.5, and in the option within the game no possibilities to change the resolution as in the resolution menu any other options are proposed but 640x480.


Thank you to all the team for such a amazing game :)

It's frustrating to hear it's not just me....


I did play around with windowed mode, but figured that wasn't a factor. Just in case it helps, here's exactly what I did:


Played game last week, in 3440x1440, fullscreen.

Update downloaded through Steam last night.

Launched game, stuck in 640x480.

Uninstalled game and reinstalled.

Launched game, problem remained.

Went into options, could not change resolution, but did change game to run in a window, then exited.

Edited width and height in .\WFTOGame_Data\GameData\Options.txt

Relaunched game, and it had picked up that setting.

Went back into options and selected fullscreen again.


Hope that helps....


The funny thing is that it seems to be running the game at native resolution (1920x1080) but it renders it in 640x480. I switched it to windowed mode (which give me a 640x480 window), I can then resize it to full size and it scales properly (no artifacting).
