Windowed Mode
« on: January 21, 2007, 06:56:40 AM »
Hi guys!

I have been playing Aces high for quite some time now(1 year almost)

I was wondering, how can i play Aces high in windowed mode?

I want to play lan with my friend but his computer will only run windowed games(weird eh?)

So, how can i get this awesome game to be windowed and not full screen

Thnx!

Not aware?  AS in you dont think there is such thing?

There must be a way to make this game windowed!!

Editing the config files maybe?

OR SOMETHING! lol.

In my 6 years playing, I'm not aware of any configuration option which allows you to minimize the screen size. Why can't your friend run the game as it is? Post his system specs and maybe we can help HIM.

As for further info on your question, try e-mailing Skuzzy at

Good luck!

odds are he can't even run the game if he can only run in "window" mode.

Doubt it.... I agree with the above, try to fix his computer, not hope for a change to the game code.

I'd like it windowed so:
A) I can see other stuff on my desktop while I'm playing (like my IM client notifications, etc.), and
B) because I can't get my aspect ratio right (1680x1050 monitor)... no matter what I try, I get stretched planes.  I told my video card to give me black bars instead of scaling, I tried setting desktop resolutions differently... alas, no proper aspect ratio.
Help?
