Try running it with the command -nativefullscr. This might cause some other problems, but it should allow you to have more resolution options. To run it with that command, follow these steps:
Open spotlight, and type "Applescript Editor". Hit enter to open it.
Copy and paste this code into the text view:
Code:
do shell script "open \"/Applications/Warcraft III Public Test/Warcraft III.app\" --args -nativefullscr"
The script above assumes your PTR app is located under Applications > Warcraft III Public Test > Warcraft III.app. If it isn't, you should edit the path as necessary.
So far, it should look like this:
Press the run button (it is the icon to the left of the hammer). It should open Warcraft III, and you should see other resolution options under Options > Video. If it works, you can save this script somewhere on your mac as an application and just double click it whenever you want to launch wc3.
Let me know if you run into any problems!
EDIT: Also, the 16:9 resolution only shows up in-game. At the moment, the start screen will just show black bars, but that's expected behavior.

THank you very much for taking the time to do this. It works like a charm, but no longer able to scroll up with mouse during gameplay. Strange bug, maybe thats why the Mac client is currently resolution capped

Ugh yeah, I forgot about that bug. It is awful. I'm hoping that they'll fix up their default setting so that we won't have to use the nativefullscr argument.
