[OSX] Application windowing issues

[Foxsake]

Playing on an Apple Studio display (27in). I can't maximise or move the window. It's stuck in the bottom left hand corner.

Downloading the game right now (seems quite occupied :p). Since I play on a iMac, I will tell you if I have the same on iMac 27". Stay tuned !

Same thing on my MacBook Air 13" (10.8.2), stuck in the lower left corner.

15" MacBook Pro attached to a 28" HP Monitor, exactly the same issue. Seems there's no window furniture to allow you to move it.

I assume this is because it's an alpha and niceities like that aren't included yet, still it'd be nice for it to scale to the size of the display rather than just take up some of it.

Very same here on OS X Mountain Lion, 27", 12Gb Ram, Mac is updated to the last version.

Got the same problem on my on my 21" iMac (1080p native resolution). The Window just sits in the lower left corner and won't move.
I messed a with preferences.txt to solve the problem, but so far I couldn't get it to run in 1920x1080. Also, Supersampling doesn't seem to work yet - The screen just turns grey.

I got it to run in windowed mode with these preferences.txt values:

Code: Select all

ScreenW              1440
ScreenH              900 
ScreenWindowed       true 
ScreenMultiSampled   true 
ScreenSuperSampled   false 
SoundMixFrequency    22050 
SoundVolume          255 
SoundSwapStereo      false 
SoundEnableDsp       true 
RecentMap            (empty) 
FirstTime            false 
AutoSaveTimer        10 


If you are having trouble locating the file:

Open finder and press Command + Shift + G
copy and paste the full path:

Code: Select all

~/Library/Application Support/Prison Architect

It works for me with these settings :

Code: Select all

ScreenW              1920 
ScreenH              1080 
ScreenWindowed       true 
ScreenMultiSampled   false 
ScreenSuperSampled   false 
SoundMixFrequency    22050 
SoundVolume          255 
SoundSwapStereo      false 
SoundEnableDsp       true 
RecentMap            (empty) 
FirstTime            false 
AutoSaveTimer        10 


2560 * 1440 seems to be a little bit bigger than my screen. It is probably with the bar on top that I lose some definition.
The MultiSampled makes the game DAMNED slow (2 fps or something). But I do agree, I have an iMac from 2009 so it's still CoreDuo inside.

Any chance you could change the topic/subject to something more precise and relevant to the actual bug? e.g. "[OSX] Application windowing issues"

if the original poster changes the title, I believe this topic should be stickied if possible - it's very helpful

Found the below to be exactly right for a retina mac.

Code: Select all

ScreenW              1440 
ScreenH              850 
ScreenWindowed       true 
ScreenMultiSampled   false 
ScreenSuperSampled   false 
SoundMixFrequency    22050 
SoundVolume          255 
SoundSwapStereo      false 
SoundEnableDsp       true 
RecentMap            autosave.prison 
FirstTime            false 
AutoSaveTimer        10

the fullscreen mode is not available ? Thanks

Yup, fiddling with my preferences solved this for me. It previously had ScreenW and ScreenH both at zero.
