video_mode

Range:

Remarks:

• After opening the video device, this variable can only be changed through the video_switch instruction. By default, pressing the [F5] key toggles the video resolution.
• Depending on the 3D card, some of the resolutions are not available.
• For setting an arbitrary resolution in window mode, use video_set.
• In C-Script this variable can not be set, but must be redefined.  LC  In lite-C this variable can be set in the first frame before any level_load() or wait() call.
• In  A6  resolutions above 8 are only supported by the Commercial Edition. This restriction does not apply to  A7 .

Example:

var video_mode = 6; // C-Script: start in 640x480 resolution
var video_screen = 1; // C-Script: start settings for Fullscreen

function main() 
{ 
  video_mode = 6; // lite-C: start in 640x480 resolution
  video_screen = 1; // lite-C: start settings for Fullscreen
  wait(1)
  ...
}
