Title: How to get back full screen game?
Post by: SAJ73 on October 30, 2010, 06:39:33 AM

I was testing my laptop on the 46" flatscreen tv the other night, and since then every time I log on the game it starts in a small window..
I open up the full screen up in the right corner before gameplay and it stays in full screen while in play, but when I exit the game it is back to the small window again?!

I used the FS/F8 combination on my laptop to get the picture to my flatscreen, and I believe this has done something to the game window.  :uhoh

I just want my game to automatically start in fullscreen again like it used to before..  :headscratch:

The main menu window, where you choose to go online and then pick an arena, is by design a window and not full screen.  Once you pick an arena and enter, the game should go full screen.  Is this working differently for you?

It is a window, but it used to cover most of my screen. Now it has reduced to a small window in my upper left corner of my screen. And very often missing the bar at the top where I can choose full screen window and where the X sits at the top right corner. And the window is so small that I have a hard time reading the text on the map board that pops up in the window..  :confused:

Ah... Nevermind.. I just figured out what to do.. I just had to <----->  drag the window bigger, and then it actually stays like that when I close it and re-open it again... hehe :rofl :P :bolt:

Glad you figured it out! Sometimes the simplest solutions are the easiest to overlook  :cheesy:. For future reference, you might also want to check the game's settings/config file for a "remember window size" option if this happens again. Happy gaming on that big screen!
