You can type your own values. And it work.

thank you very much, couldn't think out of the box here myself ))

now the next problem: when in 1920x1080 and moving the screen around sometimes it completely stucks in some position and i'm not able to move it neither with arrow keys nor with moving mouse pointer to the edge of the screen
is there any way to go around it?

It's because you hit a border of the map (maps have blocking screen hexes around) and you are stuck because of the corners. Happen often when you zoom out (or play in big resolution), zoom in to solve the problem.

That's because the maps are created in 1024x768 mostly and never have been meant to play in such high resolutions.

You can use 1280x720 which has same aspect ration as 1920x1080. So if you play in full screen mode, it won't look bad.

e. I have used this (1280x720) for a long time and I haven't really encountered any problems with it. It is also so called "HD resolution", 720p, "HD ready".

If you want full HD support, use Doctor Eex' interface - no problems there.

Just use 1900x1050 resolution (or something like that), so the border of the client wouldn't go over your screen.
