This simple hex-hack/script edit expands the resolution options for the GOG version of Alien Shooter (the first one, bundled with its two expansions) and attempts to correctly align the in-game HUD for any option with some minor changes. Including the options available by default, the supported resolutions now list: 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x720, 1280x800, 1280x960, 1280x1024, 1366x768, 1440x900, 1600x900, 1680x1050, 1920x1080. Also, this hack ditches couple of static HUD elements (top background bar for the score counter and inventory slots, and "Score:" label atop said counter) due to complications with alignment and scaling, and slightly speeds up fading transitions between menus.

My game crashes with this mod, trying to run it 1920x1080. It crashes after a few second on the first stage when I'm getting close to the hole in the fence. I am running the GOG version (setup_alien_shooter_1.2_(18275).exe). Any tips?

It does seem to work on 1600 x 900.
