Setting ratio to 16x10 (and other resolutions)

Found a solution to my original question.

If you want to run at a resolution not listed in the Resolution menu, open up the file named 'video.cfg' in note pad, and change the resolution to whatever you want it to be. So long as your monitor supports it, and you don't change it in the in-game menu, it seems to run fine. I tweaked my game to run at 1680x1050, and am quite happy with the results. (Previously had been running at 1600x900, which looks distractingly odd on a 16x10 monitor.)

Great finding Voyager. I also have a 1680x1050 monitor and was wondering if this game supported it. I guess it has been a parameter for me since I got my new screen [:)]

Could you post a picture showing the game in this resolution, i.e. just want to make sure that the imaged isn't streched.

Alright, here's a link to a screenshot of it at 1680x1050, with a planet in the backround.
