FOF On a 13" Laptop

[wade moore]

As I said in the netbook thread, I'm looking at a laptop.

I'm leaning towards a 13" laptop that I like instead. Anyone played FOF on one? Does it display the whole game on the screen?

I have a 12-incher and have had no problems. Yes, I can see the whole screen.

11" here and it displays the whole game on the screen.

I believe that resolution is the key. Not the size of the screen. So if you know the resolution of your PC monitor, you should be fine if the new screen exceeds it.

Runs fine on my 13" MacBook Pro.

What software are you running for this, Apple Boot Camp, Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion etc?

Resolution is key

Many netbooks are set for 1024 x 600. FOF does NOT like that

You have to set it to 1024 x 768 for it to display properly. That may create a situation where you have to scroll the screen down to see all of the FOF screen. It's really a PITA and the reason I quite using FOF on my netbook.

Also Exporter gets tempermantal during the screen scrolling.
