Forums » General Questions » OSX Yosemite Add Resolutions

Hi!

I want to run SM fullscreen on Yosemite -- when I run it fullscreen as it is, there's a black bar across to the top of the screen. I have the computer set for 1024x768 (running on an HDTV) and I see that SM is set at 800x600 so I suspect that's the problem, but I don't have any other resolution options in SM. How can I add a custom resolution to the program? I've tried looking for the under-pinning files but I'm not sure where OSX is hiding them.

Thanks!

Settings are stored in Preferences.ini which you can read about here: https://github.com/stepmania/stepmania/wiki/Manually-Changing-Preferences

The settings you are specifically interested in might be:

DisplayAspectRatio=1.333333

DisplayHeight=768
DisplayWidth=1024
Windowed=0

Note that the width you put in the prefs file will be ignored. Instead, stepmania will calculate a width from the height and the aspect ratio. (I don't know why they decided to do that)

Either way it works well now! That's a very hidden file, but I found it, fixed it and now it looks great.

Thank you!
