Kahoona, some people may laugh at this, but the bigger your resolution the smaller the targets to hit!

Hey kahoona, I've found this HL configurator program that might give you a res of 1600x1200 in counterstrike... I havent tried it cos it doesnt give the 1280x1024 res that i wanted, but give it a go and tell me if it works...
Download it from http://www.savagenews.com/software/hlc/hlc.html
and make sure you download the RUNTIME LIBRARY! as well (1.2Mb), to make it work properly...

Reaps, for the hundred-thousanth time, you and whoever thinks like you are wrong. Regardless of resolution, proportions of everthing in-game remain the same.

I upped my rez to max once but it just freaked me out so I went back to the rez I know and understand :P

Jamie no fucking way, think about it d00z0r, how do you fit more stuff on the screen??? Make everything inside it smaller
Try this simple test, change your desktop resolution to 640x480, OMFG ITS HUGE, WHERE DID ALL MY SPACE GO????? then drop it back to 1600x1200 and get out your magnifying lens to read the icons cause you'll need it!!!!!

There is a clone of this topic in the pantheon forums atm.
A good proportion of the players there run really low res.
personally I have run 800 and now run 1024.
I think a god thing is to run a test one evening on a empty server.
Me and a volunteer on a map.
I will set my Cs to 640 ( min ) and do a screenie with another player in a spot.
Drop and switch to 800, and do the same, then to 1024, and then to whatever is max.
And we can all compare the results which I will jpeg and post in this thread..
Sounds good ?

Yeah you may also want to check sensitivity sly? Cause does the mouse move the same length across screen or the scaled length. (scaled length being once the res has changed)???
That'd be a good test.

Has anyone else noticed the huge performance hit in some of the new maps and even in some of the old ones in specific spots in the map? :? Whats the purpose of the highr res, image quality or do you like looking at really small text :?:
I either run 800*600 with 4-Sample AA or 1024*768 with 2-Sample AA. CS (1.4 :shock: ) doesnt like 4-Sample anymore. Elite Force and Jedi Knight run fine with 4-Sample, but not CS. It seems the days of a TNT2 with a Cyrix PR233 in CS are no longer, due to extra features (eg efficiency problems). Those days were cool, my K6-2 was awesome. :D

even so if the opponents do get smaller then so does the X-hair so skill in hitting still same (sorta) just find the one that feels right for you me says.
