Is EQWindows permitted to use here?

I run a dual monitor setup and would like to be able to use my 2nd monitor while playing the game (watch a movie while camping, facebook etc ...)

I checked the rules and did a forum search but wasn't able to find any information either way.

Regards,

EQ just runs in windowed mode on the titanium client. It has worked for years. So you should be fine without any additional software. I run it in a window at work and just do other shit between kills.

Hell if you are running vista/7 you will find running in a window to be way less quirky/annoying than running full screen anyway : /

is there a way to increase EQs resolution options?

I play on a widescreen and cant seem to get EQ to fit the widescreen resolutions my monitor offers so things seem stretched or fuzzy in game a little.

You should be able too in the game client.

If not open up your eqclient.ini file and find the [VideoMode] area and edit away.

Mine looks like:

[VideoMode]
BitsPerPixel=32
WindowedWidth=1680
WindowedHeight=1050
Width=1680
Height=1050
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=0


Runs pretty on my 22"

Thanks, trying out those settings but 1920 x 1080.. my monitor won't let me click on the sides if I set the resolution from the game, it kicks me back to windowed mode... lets hope this fixes it!

This happens when you alt-enter from windowed to full screen mode. To fix this just hit alt+o and select the 1920x1080 resolution and it'll be fine.

What are you playing on a TV? 1920x1080 MAY not be supported. I know 1920x1200 is, and that's what I play on, but that is a native monitor res, and not a native television res. If your is a monitor and only does 1920x1080 you got jipped lol.

Regardless, that's how you fix it by re-applying the video settings in-game

My laptop does 1920 x 1080 max, I could lower it, but it's native at that reso, so I like to keep it there if possible. I will try out that work around as I have noticed it does get all screwed when I alt+tab out.

maybe alt + enter works better. Thats how i do. Alt + tab seems buggy.

Thanks, I will try Alt+enter :)

I tested last night and with those settings, I set to full screen in game and had no problems. Looks great in 1080p - no stretching or messed up stuff. I am betting you can use whatever resolution you want with EQ.
