salve, sodales!
I've just gotten back into RTW (the original, not the remastered) and I've been meaning to play Barbarian Invasion again too, but I've run into a nasty graphics problem for months now regarding screen resolution. This problem only happens with BI, by the way, not regular RTW for me.
Here's a link to a screenshot, for reference: https://imgur.com/EC8SH93
So basically, the problem is that the screen resolution of BI does not fit the screen size of my laptop properly. I adjusted the preferences.txt file to allow me to use a 1920x1080 resolution (which is the resolution for my laptop, and I did the same thing in RTW and it worked fine), but when I selected that option the screen was far too zoomed in for the game to be playable, as basically a third of the screen was out of view. I tried going to smaller resolutions but the problem persisted with some of the screen being out of view, until I went to 1366x68x32 as you can see here, when the game just decided not to fit my screen at all, with the Steam app still visible.
It's not even a problem of there being black bars around the game like I've heard before, which can be fixed by changing the resolution. It's like playing in a borderless windowed mode with the rest of my desktop visible, and either I have that or it's far too zoomed in as I said.
I am using Windows 11 and again, my laptop resolution is 1920x1080. This problem is exclusive to BI, not regular RTW.
Could someone help me with fixing this, please?
