I've got out my old Broken Sword cd and tried running it with ScummVM, it runs fine in windowed mode but when I switch to full screen the aspect ratio goes mental and everything stretches out wide.

I have Broken sword II and III which I purchased through steam years ago and it seems they use ScummVM too but when I load them the aspect ratio is fine, I've been googling and reading posts and the FAQ on this forum for the last hour or so and I can't find anything. I can't figure out how the other two games are running fine either.

Please advise.

Knack.

If you look in the README.txt, then you will a find a lot more than in postings here or the FAQ.

There are two ways to handle aspect ratio correction: You can click "Edit Game..." in the launcher and then click on "Graphics" on the top. Then you can check "Aspect ratio correction". Another way for toggling this is to press Ctrl-a during the game.

BS III does not use ScummVM, as it's a 3D game
