1440x900 resolution

The one thing I’d consider, is adding mithril to resource bar. The WoG way of checking mithril stockiple (r-click on Kingdom button) is not convenient.
(Now it’s not possible to force VCMI to display amount of mithril in resourcebar but I can add such option easily, it’s matter of trival moving one hard-coded constant to the settings file)

I thought about it (I think I even asked for it once), but I’m now wondering how exactly should it be implemented, considering that we need to keep also the standard game? Two ZResBar files for each resolution (sth like ZResBar5.pcx and ZResBar5m.pcx), and then somehow programmed to pick one or the other depending on the game version we’re playing?

Also, perhaps we can discuss this here:

• Where do we want to put the Mithril? Before or after Gold?
• If we rearrange the resource bar, would it make sense (and worth the effort) to switch the place of Ore and Mercury? I always wondered if there was some logic behind placing Mercury there and not together with the other precious resources.

One thing still bothers me, is the “Show Surface” button. We have this problem for all resolutions above x600. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? Is there something we can do in the settings.txt file, or would we really need to edit the .def file?

It was an engine bug, it’s now fixed in SVN. Sorry for trouble.

Glad to hear it was not a big deal to fix it. Thx.

If you have too many things on the agenda, I could take care of it, including editing the settings.txt file, and send them all in a package to you.

Great, I would be very grateful

Done!

I’m attaching it here if anyone is interested to have it before the next dev version. I’ve made a correction on the latest 1280x960 (Next Hero button was displayed twice) and also made minor updates to 1440x900 (few pixels edited on the VCMI ‘logo’ + buttons on the side panel moved 1 pixel to the left).

UPDATE: I’ve made further adjustments to the files in the archive. The new package can be found as part of the new archive prepared for the 0.74 release in THIS TOPIC (dedicated for further discussions regarding new resolutions)
