external screen problems

Post by fantastic mr fox »

I'm trying to play on my new 32" monitor hooked up to my macbook but when i load bzflag the screen goes blue for a few seconds and then displays only the central portion of the display (like i've zoomed into the picture). Any ideas what is going on and how i can get it to load normally?

Make sure the game is set to use the native resolution of the display.
