Widescreen resolution

Use Sui's Rogue Squadron DLL wrapper[1]
  1. Download the DLL wrapper and extract it.
  2. Copy DSOUND.dll and PlayerProfiles folder to <path-to-game>\ROGUE.
  3. Edit PlayerProfiles\extconfig.cfg with a text editor to specify the rendering resolution.
  4. Start the game.

Notes

The wrapper requires the rendering to be set to Direct3D - Glide is not supported.
The main menu, hangar, etc. are still rendered at 640x480. To bypass the issue see steps below.
Upscale main menu, hangar etc. with DgVoodoo 2[1]
  1. Make sure to install Sui's Rogue Squadron DLL wrapper first.
  2. Download the latest dgVoodoo 2 wrapper and extract it.
  3. Copy the DLL files from dgVoodo's MS folder to <path-to-game>\ROGUE.
  4. Start dgVoodooSetup.exe, go to DirectX tab and adjust the rendering resolution there.
