Core

Widescreen support has arrived!

• A huge shout-out to Jesse, Handfish, Veeq7, and Batty for their contributions to this feature we once thought impossible!
• IMPORTANT SETUP STEPS:
  • If you use the legacy wmode feature (i.e. you cannot make the game fullscreen by pressing alt+enter), access your Cosmonarchy config via Fraud Launcher 2 and set prefer-wmode to false. This wmode feature is no longer supported by Cosmonarchy and has been removed from the options menu as a result.
  • You will also want to make sure your Cosmonarchy\Starcraft directory has cnc-ddraw. You can find the default settings here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16DVWwEDdJ_z42lpxS0R1Wd3qIjYM4baT/view?usp=sharing
• Caveats:
  • A few of the following issues are known and will be addressed soon!
    • MMB panning doesn't block HUD interactions, causing "spikes" of movement when your invisible cursor moves over the minimap.
    • Scrolling near map edges is sometimes faster than intended.
    • Performance suffers in some cases -- try resetting your cnc-ddraw config! You can also navigate to your plugins folder and rename aize_debug to _aize_debug in order to stop it from loading, but you won't be able to use the console or speed up the game/replay without it. This shouldn't take us too long to resolve!
    • Console commands that alter the display or account for mouse cursor are unwieldy currently. We will address this after performance is improved!
    • F10 menu has a weird habit of glitching when the screen has a lot of cagra (creep) on it. This is an odd one, we'll look into it last.
  • These issues need your help in creating reproduction cases!
    • In rare cases, initial fog of war has stripes on it. This resolves itself after moving the camera, but we still want to fix it!
  • If you spot an error not on this list, please let us know on discord or fluxer! Expect hotfixes deployed to release as we fix some of the more significant issues on this list.
