Full screen and virtual desktop

[Rémi G.]

Hi,

I'm currently playing Outcast with Wine. As this game runs in a very low
resolution (512x384), I need to play in full screen mode.
Besides, I also need to kill the game when exiting since I can't skip
credits (bug 13757
<http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13757>).Therefore, I use a
virtual desktop to avoid resolution problems when killing Wine.

So my question is : if I use a virtual desktop in 1024x768 for instance
and I run the game in full screen, should the game be played in 1024x768?
Indeed, Wine automatically resize my virtual desktop to 512x384...

Thank you very much for your answer!

The virtual desktop acts as its own screen. The game should start at
1024x768, then when the game goes 'full screen', it'll resize the
desktop.
