Can anyone suggest a way of getting rid of the black border when racing in GPL so I can have full screen. I'm using a Voodoo2 with the latest generic drivers & resolution set at 800*600. Thanks Rob.
You can't..... You get used to it after a while and it is there to aid the wide field of view papy have implemented.

You can change size of screen but it requires physical monitor adjustment. I have done it with mine during experiment but it stuffs up your normal desktop after game finishes. You may need to readjust desktop due to this. Basically what you do is stretch the screen while still in same res mode it can look out of perspective but done in small increments a reasonable display can be obtained using this method . Depends a lot on your monitor too. I gave up on it though since I got tired of resetting desktop. "Darren Duncan" <dags@(nospam)ky.xaxon.ne.jp> wrote in message news:987j1j$1mb8$[email hidden]...
