Hi everyone,

I recently got a new MacBook Pro 15" with the Retina display.
After running The Witcher for the first time, I noticed that the maximum resolution I can get is 1440 x 900 whereas the Retina display supports to to 2880 x 1800.

Now, I'm not sure I'd want to play using the native resolution, but I would like to use a higher resolution.

Is there any solution for the matter?

Thanks!

I don't have a Mac version installed, but usually a Mac application will drop "plist"-format configuration files in any of

~username/Library/ApplicationSupport
~username/Library/Preferences
/Library/ApplicationSupport
/Library/Preferences

Property List Editor or any text editor will let you work with these files; but remember, screwing them up can mess up your system just as badly as screwing with the Registry on Windows can.

I've found the file ~/Library/com.cdprojektred.TheWitcher/settings.ini

In it, I've changed the resolution and ran the game. It still gives me the the default 'low' resolution, and when I quit the game, this file is overwritten with those values.

I can't seem to find any other related file to the matter.

Any other suggestions, please?

Anyway it is better to play in 1440x900 with some antialising since 2880x1800 is overkill for 99% of games, lets figure for an high end one like The Witcher 2.

Like I said in the original post, I'm not looking for native resolution support, but playing in full HD would be nice.
