Pharaoh + Cleopatra Tips

Changing Resolution

Since cxg 7.2.0 there has been a problem where the screen goes black when you change resolution. This is apparently related to a bug in Pharaoh, where it incorrectly detects the screen size. 

There is a workaround however (tested with a beta - may not work until 8.0 is released). If you want to play in 1024x768, enable the virtual desktop with size 1024x768. Start the game, it will come up in 800x600. Change the res to 1024x768 - the initial size and the new size happen to be the same, so this works. Exit the game, disable the virtual desktop, and the next time it will come up in 1024x768.
