I’m new here just bought my first game, I searched the forums but cannot find the answer to my problem.

So I’m wanting to play colonization on a full screen boarderless or a full screen windowed, is there any way I can do this?


Thanks,

You can only play it full screen non-stretched if you have a 4:3 screen. Why? Because it's an old 2D game, made in a time when widescreen didn't exist.
Why can't I connect my recent TV to a 1975 amplifier via bluetooth?

This game runs on DOSBox Emulator, so you can go to the game directory and find the DOSBox's game config
file (*.conf) and edit it to change the options to whatever you like.
Here's an example of the settings I use:

[sdl]
fullscreen=true
fulldouble=false
fullresolution=0x0
windowresolution=1024x768
output=openglnb

[render]
aspect=true
scaler=none

fullresolution=0x0 means that it'll run on your desktop resolution. GOG usually sets this to original
which means a 320x200 resolution.
windowresolution= Choose whatever standard 4:3 resolution you want.
output=openglnb With this option, the game will run on OpenGL without Bilinear Filtering. If you want,
you can also use opengl (with Bilinear Filtering). There are other output options (you can read it in the
.conf file) but OpenGL has the best performance.
aspect=true This forces the game to keep the proper 4:3 aspect ratio.

I hope this helps.
