Hi Devs and fellow captains, Earlier today I had my hands leaning over my keyboard in the number pad area. I'm not entirely sure what I pressed but all attempts to replicate the visual effect did not work. Please see the attached screenshot of my game: (Please note, this isn't so much a bug as it is more of a novelty feature, but I'm having trouble getting it to work again). Notice the black lines above and below the screen? These were somehow toggled and it made the ship's details a little blurry as if the screen had FOV and added a lot more glow to my sails. (Note: I was playing in windowed mode, but even then - this has never happened before) This is what my game looks like normally: (no black lines or added cinematic effects) I have tried pressing all of the key commands listed in the options section to no avail. I assumed it was a HD shot (F9) but that didn't work either. The effect lasted in OW and in battles right up until I exited the game, but did not stay after I restarted it (after the server maintenance). It was not an affect of my screen capture technology (as I just use steam) and was not visible on my desktop screen either which rules out the monitor. **Devs: Is this a new 'cinematic' feature you intend to implement? If so it looks great. I'll leave you with the final product of me switching off the HUD: Any thoughts, suggestions or ideas as to what it is? Regards, Andrei

Let me say right from the start that I and all the other Linux enthusiast really, really appreciate that Game-Labs ported UG:G to Linux. I hope y'all continue Linux support and I'll most definitely be coming back for all your games. There is definitely value in your products. I've run across 2 problems: *** No window mode except 2 options. Trying to run the game in window mode only gives 2 options no matter what setting you choose. I've outlined in another topic about defaulting to 1920x1145 on each game start up instead of 1920x1200 even though window mode is off. Further testing shows trying to run the game at any other resolution, whether 1024x768, 1152x768, 1280x768, etc... all the way to 1600x1200, nothing sets but 1920x1145 or 1920x1200. *** Multiplayer doesn't work. Choosing multiplayer in the main menu causes an immediate crash to desktop. The game is updated to Version: 1.5 rev.9268. Neither of these are a problem in Windows 7 and both work as expected. I'm running Linux Mint 17.1 fully updated. If you need any other info or want me to do testing in Linux, let me know. BTW, this is all for future reference. I don't expect y'all to drop everything to work on these problems especially now since you're moving on to a new game. If I can help in the future, don't hesitate to ask. Ed

I dont know if this is a bug, or just something, which will be fixed later, but if you use an ultra hd resolution the ingame names and gui elements like chat are very small. its hard to read.
