Well there's one problem\one topic on this forum, so I'll give a try
I bought Majesty Gold HD, and of the major advantages of it are large and wide-screen resolutions for modern monitors.
My monitor has aspect ratio (width\height proportion in pixels) 16 : 10, its more rare than monitors with 16 : 9, yet these monitors still are widely manufactured.

There are 16:10 resolutions in the Majesty Gold HD resolutions list. BUT. All resolutions with 4:3 and 16:9 ratio are correctly stretching over all screen, yet 16:10 resolutions
have two black stripes on the bottom and top of the screen. Maybe developers didnt think that people even can have 16:10, but then - why they add them anyway?

People with 16 : 9 cannot use these resolutions comfortably, because there are annoying black stripes on screen (with purpose to not distort width\height proportion) and wont use it anyway.
People with 16 : 10 cannot use these resolutions comfortably too, because there ARE stripes AND image also have distort proportions.

Screenshots:
16 : 9 ingame resolution on 16 : 10 monitor



16 : 10 ingame resolution on 16 : 10 monitor now



16 : 10 ingame resolution on 16 : 10 monitor as it should be


So if it is possible and not cost-based, may I ask to remove black borders on 16 : 10 resolution options so image will streth correctly on 16 : 10 monitors in some update?
If the troulbe can be solved by in example adjusting in windows a specific frequency rate or user can edit it through some config files editing, i'd like to know too :)
I still can play in this brilliant game of cource, yet I hope to play without flattened image


//find out than problem with black strips and flattening the image is disappearing in windowed mode, but still that's not exactly what I want.


// Sorry, I scrolled down the resolutions' list to the end and found the 1440x900 option (which strangely goes after 1980x1200) that works perfectly :blush:
