Windowed Mode?
« on: September 21, 2016, 07:48:03 PM »
Will Aces High 3 be able to be run in windowed mode? If so, then I can use it on my second monitor, which is a game-changer for me.

Thank you!

Can you not swap your monitors to which one is primary?

I tried that and still get a problem in AHII that I described in another post. Windowed mode seems to be the only way for me to fix this issue, which is why I'm curious about it in AH3 :)

Badger--

When you first double click the icon and the first splash screen comes up, try clicking video settings there, and at the top it will say Select Video Card at the top with a selectable field which shows Video card and displays. If you select your "non laptop" monitor there, do you get the same thing?

Only reason I know it is there is the reboot gremlin got me...went to bed all is good. Woke up and when I fired up AHIII, it showed on my small monitor.  Couldn't figure it out as Primary screen wasn't changing things for me.....

Dobs has the fix.

I would love windows mode as I travel A LOT and some hotel room TV's can't be adjusted enough to display all of the full screen in AH.
