Hi all,

Just got the AppGameKit and been trying to learn up on the teir 1 side of things. Just when I thought I had worked out the resolution / display side I come across this.

If I designed my GFX at a res of 1024 x 600. Then in my project setup I set it to 1024 x 600 and lastly I use the following:

SetVirtualResolution( 1024, 600 )
SetDisplayAspect( 1024/600 )

Shouldnt I expect a sprite that is 1024 pixels wide to take up the entire width of the window (which is 1024 wide). When I try it the sprite (and any other sprites for that matter) are shrunk down leaving borders on the left & right.

Makes me think I am doing something wrong or not understanding the whole virtual resolution thing correctly.

Heres a screeny if it helps....


Thanks for any input to help me lift this fog

The SetDisplayAspect() call is redundant as SetVirtualResolution() automatically sets the aspect ratio to your chosen resolution.

In this case I think the error is cause by 1024/600 producing and integer result instead of a float one, 1024.0/600.0 might fix it, but removing the call altogether should work.

Thanks paul as i whas fooling around with this last night!

Then do i only nead set virtual resolution

you were right it was an integer rounding issue on the aspect, and also removing it works all happy again

Many thanks
