I spotted this issue with 1.12, and wondered if maybe it was something that was changed in 1.13, but alas, nope. Anyways, I have a frontend which runs 640x480 fullscreen, and I'm using it to launch Magic Engine directly. All's well until Magic Engine terminates...it then returns Windows to its "normal" resolution rather than the one set by the frontend. Since the frontend does not set the resolution in the registry but rather changes the current resolution, I assume Magic Engine returns Windows to the resolution to whatever's set in the registry rather than using current settings...not generally a good idea. If this is the case, you should strongly consider saving the current state of the desktop before changing the resolution for Magic Engine, and then restoring it to that state on exit. Should be really easy to change.  _________________ Frozen Utopia
