Hi,

I'm trying to play AOE2 on Voobly RC1.5 Wololo Kingdoms on my iMac using VMWare Fusion

Everything works fine but I'm unable to play the game at lower resolutions.

I end up playing at 4480 x 2222 and the status bars at the top and bottom are miniscule.

While I can see a very large area on the map I'm unable to keep a track of my resources properly.

Is there a good way to zoom and see a larger status bar so that I can play more effectively.

Have attached a sample screenshot of my screen as well.

Thanks a lot for the help in advance.

Simply reduce the resolution of your VMware VM. The game will automatically use the current resolution of the VM, which sould then reflect your desired settings. Then simply zoom out the VMware window (without changing the in VM resolution), instead of trying to mess with a 25 year old game's resolution.
