Hi all, I have a resolution question. When I start up DB I am informed that a resolution change may be needed and then takes me back out of the editor to my desktop. I have changed it to 800 X 600 but it looks so bad, any tips for this? Thanks guys.

Use DarkEDIT. DB defaults to the resolution 640*480*16 in the editor or any program you make with it. When executing your code (f5), it is going to set to that resolution, no matter what.

You can of course change it with set display mode, but DB will start with 640*480*16, and then set the the desired resolution. So, there is no way I know around it.

I would recommend writing your own IDE. A good program to start with is AutoHotkey. Just try to replicate the interface of Notepad, then add a "compile" menu to run DarkBASIC with the specified parameters. I could probably whip something up for you in a couple hours.
