What game resolution do you use?

Please make a selection above in the poll question.

I'm working on a project and have come across a problem within the stock game structure that effects game play and my intended modification. I'm wondering what game resolution you have set in the Graphic Options menu?

The reason I'm asking can be found in the following images from a stock game set at two different resolutions 1024x768 and 1280x1024.

Here's the 1024 x768 showing a ship at 1000 yards distance and the stock periscope telemeter marks showing the length at 22 and 3/4 marks (nearly 23).






Here's the same ship, same distance, at the 1280x1024 resolution.





My problem is this, the game uses the same stock "periscope mask" for the two different resolutions. But more importantly, the different game resolutions create different results of the same sized periscope telemeter marks. I'm planning on correcting the accuracy of the telemeter markings to give accurate measurements of both height and length but this problem seems to create a need to have a corrected scope (camera settings) for each resolution you use! So a poll may help in working toward the resolution most used by the community.

This morning I started a poll thread on the "SH4 Mods Workshop" forum with a limited listing of game resolutions. I've quickly found out many respondents use resolutions greater than the ones I listed. With this thread I'm using a greater number of choices to make a better account of the question.

Thanks in advance

Since my monitor died, I've been using my HDTV, which is 1920x1080 16:9.

Well, for what it's worth, my native resolution is 1920X1080 but, for some reason, I cannot take SS at that resolution. Therefore, I'm currently set at 1862X1058.

I'm running 1600x900 right now, but I'm going to step back to 1680x1200 for compatibility with the 3000 yard/meter bearing plotter. Edit: make that 1152x864. You can't exactly get 1200 vertical pixels on a 900 pixel screen..... duh!!!!

Edit to edit: 500 fps in the menu screen????!!!!!! OMG!

I'm running full screen with high settings at 1920 x 1080 on a GeForce 470.

Thanks for responding everyone, please keep it up.

I've looked through a large portion of the larger, wider-screen resolutions and have found them to be consistent with the games native 1024x768 size. That's good news!! The stinker out of the bunch seems to be only the 1280x1024 resolution. Ive not found any other resolution that follows the games 1280x1024 sizing. The only resolution I can't test is the 1600x900 setting. Neither computer I'm using has that as an option.

More importantly, if the poll shows a large portion of you use larger, wide screen monitors, then this gives me some ideas on creating a mod that uses those capabilities. The 1024x768 size is very restrictive in what gets put onto the screen, where larger sizes give greater possibilities.
