Fullscreen Windowded


Recommended Posts

It is already like this.

 

If you go fullscreen, it is infact fullscreen windowed. you will notice that when you realise your monitor isnt taking a bit to change res. and its instant.

not really... it goes to minimize instantly when you click on something else (a bit frustrating on dual screen)

You said not really, but if it were actual fullscreen you wouldnt be able to switch out in a second, etc.

It would take some time for your display to switch screen resolutions, and appear black for a moment. As seen on true fullscreen apllications.

 

Windows doesn't view your screens as 2 separate desktops.

Assuming you have your displays "stretched/extended", it is actually treating your PC as if it were using 1 screen. and so this will happen on a lot of programs.

I have no control over this, or to why it minimizes.

 

The game is though, infact "Fullscreen Windowed".

As proper fullscreen dedicates your GFX Card to the game, and not windows & game.

 

However, It may be possible to just make it window (with the border), set a screen res that will fit into your other screen and probably use it that way.

It just wouldnt take up the whole 2nd monitor i guess.

 

I cant really help you anyway, i only have 1 monitor, as much as i wish i had 2.

I'll have a play around with some stuff.. and see what i can do though

Only people with windows xp will be affected by this (vista+ supports dx11). XP is 14 years old anyway. Its almost as old as the PS2. So if people are using a legacy OS like that then theyre going to be left behind eventually.
