Macbook pro 15" retina. Mouse and resolution freaking out!
Hey guys,
Just got me a new macbook. So am excited to try Wesnoth on it. But when I opened up, I had the issue, that I've seen more people talk about, where the mouse is off with pixels. So when I want to click something I have to target at a different place on the screen, than where the mouse is.
While I was trying to fix a good resolution I went into full screen mode and got stuck there! No I can't even hit the mouse some other place on the screen and get back into windowed mode! So I'm stuck!!
Have been looking for a preference file or something to trash, so I can get back in the game on another resolution. But I can't find a such. So yup - mega stuck!
Help much appreciated!
cheers!

In the Finder, from the Go menu, choose "Go to Folder"
Type
Open Wesnoth_1.10 or whatever version you have.
Open the preferences file and change the values "fullscreen" and "color_cursors" to "no".
Type
~/Library/Application Support
into the dialog.Open Wesnoth_1.10 or whatever version you have.
Open the preferences file and change the values "fullscreen" and "color_cursors" to "no".
Re: Macbook pro 15" retina. Mouse and resolution freaking ou
Thank you Alarantalara! I am now back and can mess around in Wesnoth. But can it really be true that I can only play on a resolution of 1280x800? Even 1440x900 is F****d up! If so it's sad. On my old mid 2010 17" macbook pro, I could play in 1920x1152. thank you!
Re: Macbook pro 15" retina. Mouse and resolution freaking ou
..Anybody knows how to play on 15" retina macbook pros in higher resolution than 1280x1024??
And does anybody know if maybe the beta version changes this? I'm in 1.10.7 (stable version).
THANKS!!

wesnoth will eventually move to SDL 2.0 which might help with this and similar issues.
Re: Macbook pro 15" retina. Mouse and resolution freaking ou
Thank you for replying Max! I don't know what SDL2.0 is, but I will look forward to higher resolutions again!

The plan is that wesnoth will move to SDL 2.0 in 1.14. This will help with various touchscreen and controller issues. And perhaps hardware acceleration.
