Troubleshooting
Screenresolution:
It is possible to set the resolution in max.xml however you should keep
in mind that all menus and displays are designed for 640x480. If you
choose a resolution not offered in our settings dialog you may
experience odd graphical problems.
Sound:
If you experience problems with soundquality (especially on WinXP) you
may increase the chunksize in MAX.XML. Default is 1024 and 2205Hz. Next
proper value is 2048 or 4096. If you increasing frequency you have to
increase the chunksize, too. However inceasing frequency has only a
small benefit to the backgroundmusic.
On linux make sure that no soundserver blocks your soundcard from being
accessed if your SDL installation doesn't know how to connect to your
soundserver. This is the case when maxr seems to hang when the splash
finished loading everything and seems to be stucked.
Maps:
The orignal maps are 100% compatible.
