Hi all,

I run all my games from my Home Theater PC (HTPC). This outputs to a 42" monitor on my entertainment center. I sit back on the couch and do most of my gaming.

First off, what is the current version of the game? It reports 1.3 in-game, but it may or may not be 1.4. If I install Steam's U-Boat Missions, I have been told the game patches to the latest version. Can I install UBM and still play the American campaign?

I have set the resolution to 1280x720. I don't think this is working. The game starts, but it does not fill the monitor. It's maybe an inch on each side from using 100% of my screen. What do the other numbers mean? I think one is refresh, but the other is a mystery to me.

Finally, in any resolution, the fonts are too small to see from my couch. Are there any font mods or a way to tweak the default fonts?

Thanks all.
