So I have a 15" retina MacBook Pro with the nvidia 750 gpu. The screen resolution is 2880x1800, but by default you get what amounts to a 1440x900 resolution screen as all the pixels are doubled. You can choose other scaled resolutions as well, up to 1900x1200, but in game performance seems to suffer a bit due to the scaling overhead. With a third party app you can expose the full native resolution of the display, which solves the performance problem completely as far as I can tell, unfortunately the UI elements are then very tiny and the text is hard to read.

My request:

1. Expose the full native resolution of retina displays without resorting to a third party tool.
2. Have an option for high DPI displays which will double the size of UI elements to make them easier to see.

I can be a Mac tester. I have one of the new 15 inch retina Macbook Pros with the nvidia 750 and OSX 10.9.

• What's your experience with testing systems?
Most recently I was a forum moderator at the Bukkit forums (minecraft server) before they were absorbed into Mojang/Curse. I ran my own server and frequently reported bugs to plugin developers. I have an IT and programming background.


• Ever used a bug tracker before? Does the Ludeon bugtracker look foreign to you or familiar?
I'm as comfortable with a bug tracker as most people are with facebook.

• What OSes do you have?
OSX 10.9 and windows 7

• How much time do you have to test?
Given the amount of time I've been playing, quite a bit.
