Crosmando: Huh... I'm aware of the three resolutions (I'm currently using 1024x768), but how do you change the view area in the tactical map? There doesn't seem to be an .ini file with that in it.
3 resolutions are in 4870 which is the stable version. In the newer SCIs, you should have the following options:
; 0 ... 640x480
; 1 ... 800x600
; 2 ... 1024x600
; 3 ... 1280x720
; 4 ... 1024x768
; 5 ... 1280x768
; 6 ... 1360x768
; 7 ... 1366x768
; 8 ... 1280x800
; 9 ... 1440x900
; 10 ... 1600x900
; 11 ... 1280x960
; 12 ... 1440x960
; 13 ... 1770x1000
; 14 ... 1280x1024
; 15 ... 1360x1024
; 16 ... 1600x1024
; 17 ... 1440x1050
; 18 ... 1680x1050
; 19 ... 1920x1080
; 20 ... 1600x1200
; 21 ... 1920x1200
; 22 ... 2560x1440
; 23 ... 2560x1600
