Hello there. Always nice to see a new forum member.

Couple of things:

(some coding stuff I don't get myself involved in)

So does JJ2 just not support any resolutions higher than 640x480, or did I just mess up with my hexadecimal?

Thanks in advance.
I was going to link you to another thread called Why does everyone use 640x480 at all times? but I've noticed you've already been there. However, you skipped over a section here:

The maximum allowed resolution in bigjazz is 1600x1200. It works sort of fine, but is pretty buggy, and as noted, does not work with JJ2+ (which, if you do not know, is a patch for JJ2 that fixes plenty of bugs and adds features for online play. It is required on plenty of servers and if you plan to play online, is a must have). If you had read further through the thread you would have noted this:

I'm not sure how the program works, as I've never asked for the source code to the modifications or whatever you do to look at the coding, but you can probably ask Neobeo for the coding. He has a forum account which he almost never checks out.

Hope this has helped.
