Increase Crossfire Client resolution - [Image Proof Of Concept]

My suggestion is to increase the current crossfire lobby window resolution from 1024x768 to 1920x1080 and other game resolutions.

The difference in resolution causes;
1) The game to load slow when joining due to it having to switch resolutions
2) Game crashes, disconnects and client errors as well as it sometimes becoming a non responsive window triggering XIGNCODE multiple clients open error popup.
3) When you alt-tab, you are stuck on 1024x768 unless you quit the game
4) 1024x768 doesn't look as crisp as upscaled resolutions would.

I'm pretty sure all of the lobby graphics are made for 1024x768, but for first hand I wouldn't mind if it still looked the same, but was just rendered at the set game resolution so it would still solve problems 1-3 outlined above.

In order to show how a lobby with higher resolution would look, I have made concept images showing the actual difference:
Lower quality pixelated images are cropped parts of standard crossfire screenshots. The better looking images are those same images, but upscaled.
(to get a true image quality, and improvement difference - right click on image and click "view image")

  • Idc. Fix alt+tab under windows10 is more important. There is no chance to switch to desktop while ingame.....
  • You're too good for this place by doing this, hah.
    Its not like CF will ever get any sort of graphical enhancement anyways. Games way too old and outdated
