Solutions & Issues
Widescreen Solution & Issues:

Fullscreen mode is limited to 640x480 with no way of changing it. Fullscreen mode is doubled 320x240 by default; a full 640x480 mode can be used by toggling fullscreen with Shift+F4 instead of F4.

The game windowed can be resized but has a maximum size limit with a play area of 700x524 (the largest HUD width in DASHRES.DLL).
