I just started updating to version 10, and on my laptop that is 2560x1440p full screen is not an option ?
How do I get full screen ? could this be because the desktop is set to 125% scaling ? but if it is I cant keep turning that off every time I want to play ?

See the instructions about how to run the DirectDraw version of Capitalism Lab which supports true full screen mode:
https://www.capitalismlab.com/display-troubleshooting/
Is there anyone else using 2560x1440 who has the same problem? Normally it should display the option 2560x1440 on the full screen (borderless window) mode menu.

I tried that i presume the checkbox makes it run the capmain2.exe instead.
running this, choosing full screen makes the screen go black then game CTD's
Setting the compatibility mode on the shortcut didnt work, but setting the compatibility mode on capstart.exe did work and let the game run
each time i have to click the windows yes i want to run the program box first, and each time i exit it asks me if compatibility worked, which is still a minor annoyance.

Did you see the option 2560x1440 on the DirectDraw version or version 9.1 ?

Did you see any other resolution options on the full screen mode screen in v9.1 or DirectDraw v10.0 ? Or is it just empty without any resolutions available for selection?

Please take a look at this post
viewtopic.php?t=9741 and send me a screenshot with the system info about your desktop width and height.

its still blank for me, so after fiddling more I realise its not 2560x1440, its WQXGA instead of QHD.
I feel silly, oh well, be nice if it can be added one day, for now
