This is not on the milestone for 1.5 stable, but it is on the next milestone (not published yet).

We have this and other ideas listed here: https://github.com/DescentDevelopers/Descent3/discussions/94

Thanks for clarifying, @JeodC. I was a bit surprised that no one had formally raised this issue here yet, since it is an obvious quality-of-life improvement that 99% of Descent 3 fans would want.

The retail version of the game (on the Windows side) always had access to launch options to set game resolution above and beyond the 1600x1200 option in the in-game menu's. -width -height and -aspect would set it per https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Descent_3#Widescreen_resolution These options, however, were never in the Loki port, but are now available with the source release. Can't comment on the Mac port however.

What I am concerned more with, is 1440p and 2160p support, since these resolutions are becoming more prevalent. As well as edge-case 21:9 ultrawide monitors.

See first implementation draft #439 . This will be given more priority for the upcoming 1.6 milestone
