Maybe you should register on the Team17 forums, there's a support forum for WA which is frequently visited by CS and DC, unlike the TUS forums.
I remember knowing who it was but dont remember exactly what I knew

Anyway, it's topic about monitor problem, and you better should shut up than trolling.

I wrote about problem in T17 forum. Thanks everyone who tried to help me here :)

there's always the last resort - windowed mode. (don't forget to delete wkForceFrontendResolution)
but I recommend you first to try everything possible, especially as CyberShadow proposed.
the upcoming update will most likely solve your problem, btw!
Dec 30 2013 23:59:44 <StepS> windowed mode isn't the only thing you need about frontend
Dec 30 2013 23:59:49 <StepS> you need it to be actually bigger
Dec 31 2013 00:00:13 <StepS> it actually is very small on my 15-inch full HD screen
Dec 31 2013 00:00:25 <StepS> while running at 640x480 or stretched mode makes it fuzzy
Dec 31 2013 00:00:44 <StepS> this problem has been around since the Worms Armageddon's release and no one has even tried to beat it

OK Steps, I will check it if needed, thanks.

Maciej

Steps, it works but I get horrible screen lags and can't minimize game :(

OK, I will try with PX (but I tried PX once, time ago, and as I remember I was getting lags with it). And the second mothod, with all of possible resolution, so you mean it will be working without windowmode? And where should I paste this folder?

EDIT: I tried to copy file with 1920x1200 resolution to the folder with the game, and when I try to open wormkit it minimizes automatically, and I can't maximize it again, seems to doesn't work.

EDIT2: I installed PX, and now it works without lags on 1920x1200, thanks you Steps!
But on 1920x1200 worms seem to be too small, I don't feel comfortable, I tried to change it into 1024x768 and it still works now! But I feel like a little screen lags then (or those are my eyes... because it doesn't effect on game), but if you could say me where can I paste resolution which I'd like to use in game, I would be grateful. I tried to copy 1600x1024 (it's 16x10 as my monitor) to folder with the game, but then I open the game in even smaller window, I don't even see if I can choose this resolution in game from the list, because it's too small to see anything. Sorry for my chaotic english, hope you can understand me :)

don't do this, it's only for frontend and incompatible with window mode.

you see small worms because you have a very high DPI monitor. pixels are so tight that you can't see some very small details on screen unless you have a good eye. Retina is example.

if you got it working now, delete the frontendresolution module.
for the in-game resolution, you can use wkPrivateCfg to set any resolution you want. keep in mind that only a resolution supported by monitor will actually be in-game, otherwise it'll reset to the nearest one (or a "default" one).
this isn't limitation to the PX "Windowed" option though, and is useful to specify custom window size. To enable PX window, do Windowed=1 in PX.ini.

I use Windowed=0, then I get game screen for whole monitor, looks much better, and minimizes works anyway :) I copied wkprivateCfg file in folder with game but it changed nothing, there are not more resolution to choose ;S
