1280x1024 resolution sets monitor to 1024x768

[bobdrad]

I'm trying to increase the size of the display for Baldur's Gate 1 (Linux). I tried editing the .cfg file to specify 1280x1024, and noticed that the bottom and right parts of the screen were missing. I checked my monitor resolution and it's set to 1024x768. When I'm not in Fullscreen, the windowed-mode exhibits the same problem.

 

I tried this with and without the widescreen mod - no difference. With the widescreen mod, I also tried 1920x1200, and again the bottom and right edges of the screen (i.e. my toolbars) were not visible.

 

This is with the latest version of gemrb (v0.8.3), on Fedora 21.

Thanks for any assistance!

you definitely need the widescreen mod for any particular resolution you try (reinstalling each time). As the comment in the config says, bg1 natively supports only 640x480.
