    Hi,
    Does anyone know the best techniques to maintain your game's ratio and images resolution regardless of the monitor it's played in?
    Ideally, if the game is played in a different screen ration, I'd like to have the black stripes on top and bottom to guarantee the 16:9 ratio.
    Is there a way to do this?
    cheers!

    Just a word of advice: it would really ruin experience on different screen aspect ratio. I hated Assassin's Creed when my main monitor was 16:10. I mean, I got extra pixels in height, why the hell the game won't use them?!
