Windowed mode not working

Post by Pvt.LHeureux »

Hey guys, for PR:WW2 sometimes I need to run it in windowed mode when loading crashes to get error reports. But when I uncheck the Fullscreen option in the launcher settings, and put in a custom resolution, it still launches in Fullscreen.

Also if I try to do it manually with : +fullscreen 0 +szx 800 +szy 600 it gives me a message saying that PR Launcher cannot accept those commands.

Thanks!

Check to see if your Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles\0001 or Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles\0002 etc diectories are set to Read Only.

then check the video.con files in those directories to make sure those files are not set to read only.

You use a mods\PRww2 or mods\pr_edit or something similar right?

Does public release mods\pr work in windowed mode or not?

All those are set properly and yes we do use a custom launcher.

But checking these, I think I found the problem, my video.com for 0001 shows the custom resolution, while the 0002 profile (Which I use) still show 1920x1080 (fullscreen). So I think this might be the problem, the resolution settings may only apply to the 0001 profile. I don't have time to check this right now, but thanks! I'll check this later on and give feedback.

Didn't work, I really don't know what to do.

AfterDune said I should check our launcher.con, but the only line in there is :

renderer.vsync 0


EDIT : Solved. AD said to go to " Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles\0001 or Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles\0002 etc diectories" then check in each of them for Launcher.con, then turn the FullScreen line from 0 to 1.

Thanks Litoralis!
