Perhaps, but with sufficient processing power and memory bandwidth that shouldn't cause a problem. > I myself never felt this limitation for when I want a "big" > display I go fullscreen. I always run LW fullscreen. However, I use LCDs, and thus I like to avoid running at non-native resolutions whenever possible. Running at the native resolution gets smoother images without scaling. I'd like to run at 1400x1050 and 1680x1050. > Raising the resolution will only slow down the > game without showing more information, for currently there's no level > which is that big (that is, a level showing more that 1024x768 fighting > pixels). Ah, I didn't realize this. I had assumed that LW would scale up to whatever resolution it had available. > To be honest, I have a 1600x1200 desktop and a 1400x1050 > laptop, and always play 640X480...
