Playing Kerbal with Retina Display

[Shawn28]

I'm playing verbal on my MacBook Pro with retina display (my screen resolution is 2560x1600 while my screen size is only 13.3 inches), and KSP looks kind of pixelish because it only lets me use 1200x800

any ideas how to change KSP resolution to fit my Retina display Mac ?

thanks

If you open up the settings file you can manually change the resolution. It should be near the bottom of the first section.

[Shawn28]

Do you mean the settings.cfg ? because it won't let me open it.

You have to right click and then "open with...", then select notepad, or if you have it installed use notpad++

line with the resolution is 53 and 54

search for that :

SCREEN_RESOLUTION_WIDTH = 1366

SCREEN_RESOLUTION_HEIGHT = 768

He's on a Mac so Notepad and Notepad++ won't help, but the general idea is the same. Open it with TextEdit.

Ok... i'll try (it's not that i have no idea how to do things... i'v been playing minecraft for a loooooong time,modded it, and made servers... so i know what you guys are talking about, it's just that i only got my mac a few months ago so i'm still getting used to it, wich i'm already 99% used to (i think it's awesome !))

anyway, i'll try opening it with TextEdit.

Ok... it works... it did change the resolution and made the UI super tiny... but it still looks pixelish... i guess i can't change that...

anyway, thank you all. and pixelish KSP does't make KSP less awesome !

You might be able to change the UI ratio in the in-game settings. Changing the anti-aliasing settings might improve the pixel-ness look (more anti-aliasing?).

Edit: Also on your Mac, Ctrl+Click will often function as a right-click.

i would try more anti-aliasing... and i know about the Ctrl+Click thing, but thanks anyway !

Ok... it works... it did change the resolution and made the UI super tiny.

You could try using 1280x800. That's exactly half your native resolution.

I'm using 2560x1600 and it works well, my UI isn't to small (if i'm not in full screen mode)... thanks anyway
