Old menu picture

Hello everybody,

I'm using the image that was previously in the main menu as a wallpaper.
Just now I bought a new 2560 x 1440 monitor and the image is 1920x1080

I don't remember how I got the image originally and I don't see it on Artwork page.

Is it available somewhere in higher resolution?

I'm talking about this image

The 1920x1080 image was included in the 1.0 Factorio release. I don't know of any higher resolution version.

Ok, thanks.

I used some online upscaler to make the img bigger.

Attached if anybody is interested.

The image should still be in the Factorio files, because if you go into settings and disable background simulations for the main menu, that image comes back.

Aside from that, I don't know what OS you are using, but Windows I know has a few stretching options. As 2560x1440 is the same ratio as 1920x1080, on Windows, you could just use the "Fit" stretch option. (And if it wasn't the same ratio, you could use a free image editor like paint.net to add black bars to the needed sides to make it the same ratio so the fit stretching didn't distort the image.)

I'm not sure what options other OS's have, but I would think they would allow similar?

The ration is the same of course.

But when you display the 1920x1080 on 2560x1440 screen it is blury.
Anyway, the upscaled img is fine.
