The new GUI - Doesn't play well with low res devices
Sun, 2008-09-07 09:34
I've got an eeepc and the new gui is very hard to use (If usable at all) at 800x480 it would be nice if we had an option to use the old gui as well as the new.

You mean the Asus eee? Can't play hedges? Damn, I was just going to buy it. And i agree, there should be pefromance-related setting.

Hmm, serious topic. I think it would be better if the new frontend is more scalable, but if it's impossible guess it should be possible to use the old one.

i think it might be reasonable to assume that the minimal size is e.g. 640x480, and make sure that everything above this is working ok. the definition of minimum size required has some sense, since the game requires quite high resolution to be played (like i can not imagine playin on 320x200)..
maybe to leave a option to choose between new fancy UI, and old QT default one...
DON'T PANIC!

We will discuss this.
I'm not sure about working at 640 x 480 and scaling up, because 640x480 is pretty damn low res these days. But we'll see.
If anything I'll talk about a "simple GUI" mode for portable devices. I'd like this to be playable on the eee.
But to be fair, you are updating via svn, the gui isnt even finished yet
It's playable just difficult to navigate the menu, in game is perfect.
It'd be nice if we could get some deb's as well as the EEEpc only got 4 gig and when I install everything needed to compile hedgewars it leaves me around 300meg of space.
