Default New monitor

Hi guys...

I've just got myself a 19" Wide LCD, and I was wondering if anybody here is playing SH3 in 1440x900 pixels resolution. If so, how does it looks like? Any bugs with that? And what about the GUI mods, like OLC's, does it gets too weird with this kind of resolution?

Another question... Does SH3 works flawlessly in a Vista 64bits plataform?

Thanks in advance!

I tried to play it in widescreen, but it's looking strange - circles turn into ovals, distances measured on map do not correspond to what they should be etc. The game really has no support for widescreen. Instead, I prefer to play it in a 4:3 resolution (i.e. 1400 by 1050) with two black bands on the sides of the monitor.
Search this forum for widescreen, you'll find ample reference and advice about it.

22" here and absolutely no problems or concerns

You could also try auto resolution and tweak your preferences from that setting.
