320x240 fullscreen?

Is it possible to run this game in 320x240 fullscreen? I have a monitor and video card that can support that resolution, but the configuration tool for Cave Story doesn't seem to allow it.

 

I have 2 solutions for you:

1) No. Cave Story does not allow this.

2) You could just try setting your resolution to 320x240, and then running Cave Story windowed at 320x240.

 

That's too bad. I actually have tried your method #2 before posting this, but thanks for mentioning it as it's a perfectly acceptable solution.

I was hoping there was a 320x240 fullscreen mode since that would make the setup easier for my planned arcade arrangement, but I guess I'll need some scripts to do the resolution switch/positioning of the window. Thank you though for your quick and helpful reply!

 

Hi folks, I'm trying to do the same thing as the OP of this thread. Basically I'm running the game on an ancient Pentium 1 machine from like 1996, on Windows 98, and at 320x240 res the game runs perfectly, but at 640x480, its too slow on this machine and not fun...

I'm not able to set my Win 98 desktop resolution to 320x240 by itself, its just not something available in the display options, lowest I can do is 640x480, so the window takes up 1/4 of the screen... Just checking if in the 14 years since this thread was originally posted, if there might have been any enhancements to the Cave Story options/configuration, or other ideas/software that have come out that might help me run in fullscreen with the lower resolution... There are several other Win9x platformer games that allow for 320x240 at full screen with my video card, so there shouldn't be a technical incompatibility.

 

The full screen mode basically forces 640x480 resolution. The only thing I can think of is to modify CSE2 source code to include a 320x240 fullscreen option and build that, or live with 320x240 windowed.
