I am kind of new to Wintermute, but im running 1280 x 1024 as standard because my game will pretty much be a 2D game with HD graphics. Simple reason.

I would recommend 1280x800 as a standard wide-screen resolution.

No, but you have the problem that most ppl have high res widescreen lcd displays. When you play fullscreen, you will have black bars left and right, which does not look good in my opinioin. And the lower the resolution of your game is, the "blurrier" (dont know the word) it looks when playing in fullscreen mode. So 1280x800 (or 1024x768 if you want) is the best choice today imo.

How should there be a solution? If the screen is 16:9 and you use a 16:10 or 4:3 resolution, or any other combnation, you will have black bars.

Can you please describe in details what's the issue because right now I do not understand it. Mention your monitor's native resolution, game's resolution, behavior of the game.

I think he is talking about a script that go and change and set to the computer resolution the same resolution of the game !!!!
There are a lot of game that do this !

This is real-time 3D engine. WME is 2D/2.5D. If you want your game to have different resolutions you have to create it in different resolutions and provide all different packages.
