Hi, I just purchased Spoids but cannot run it due to an XNA error.

Someone wrote: XNA Framework Reach profile supports a maximum Texture2D size of 2048


A cursory search points to a large screen resolution - mine is 2560x1440. I wouldn't mind to play the game in a smaller resolution but I don't know how - I can't find any INI or CFG in the game directories.
Thank you.

Interesting, we have never tried the game on a resolution that large. The game creates a config file for you once you get to the start screen as it analyzes your computer specs and builds one based on your settings. Let me put together a config file for you to drop in your My Documents/My Games/Spoids directory so you can get passed this issue and we'll look to patch it once we figure out a permanent solution.

------ Update

We have a patch ready on our side that will take a day or two to get approved. It will ensure the game does not try to create in game scenes that are bigger than our max supported resolution.

In the meantime, I have private messaged you asking for an email address so I can send you a working 'settings' file so you can start playing and not have to wait for the patch to get approved.
