Author Topic:   Can I change screen size?

I keep my computer screen size at 800 by 600 but the game, to me, looks better if I play it at 1024 by 768. Is there a way to change this setting within the game itself.( For example maybe a preference setting that I haven't found yet) This way I could keep my computer at 800 by 600 but when I boot the game it would automaticaly goto 1024 by 768 and when I exit the game back to windows go back to my default setting.
Or am I going to have to keep changing my settings manually before and after I play the game?

Either set your windows desktop resolution to that size, or refer to the readme.txt "tweaking" section for the line to add to the alpha centauri.ini file.
