A Way to Change The Resolution
This is ideal for a game. Many games simply look better or work better in a different resolution. Mostly the look is because whatever resolution you were using on your computer at the time is what the graphics in the game will look best as. This code will simply enable you to set their computer resolution to whatever you want.
