Title: Run screen
Post by: Matagot on Fri 13/01/2012 18:17:01
Hi just getting to know AGS bit by bit.

When I click on Run to view the game, the run screen is rather small.


I can't seem to bump up the window size, is this more to do with the game resolution?

That's right, it depends on the game's resolution.  You can also use filters to increase the size of the window (through the game's setup menu).

In the editor, select Build in the menu. Chose "Build EXE" and then "Run Winsetup". There you can select a couple of options, most importantly x2/x3 etc filters. They will enlarge the game window. YOu can also select "run fullscreen".
Note that pressing F5 in the editor will always run your game windowed. Pressing CTRL+F5 will use the setting you set in winsetup, including the fullscreen settings if you checked it.

Once you compile and release your game, by the way, users will have the same winsetup.exe in their directory, and the game will start with the last settings YOU entered there.
