Changing Resolutions in game

by Xavier "eXoDuS" Amado · in Torque Game Engine · 12/16/2001 (6:26 am) · 2 replies

I tried changing resolutions ingame, but it seems that after the resolution change the engine doesnt relight the scene, and if i relight it manually (using the editor keys ALT + L) some weird things happen with the textures, they might look with strange colors over them like if they had color lights or something...
GG developers... answers? :)

I was not able to reproduce this problem. Loaded a mission, droped a building on the ground, relit the mission then switched back and forth between 800x600 and 1024x768 without any problems.

You should not have to re-light a mission when changing resolutions, if the lighting is getting messed up then possibly there is a problem with the texture cache.

How are you performing this in-game resolution change?
