FULLSCREEN FIX!
 
I've been looking for somthing that is FREE currently to make EQ play in fullscreen in the correct resolution. This actually runs the game in windowed, but looks like fullscreen. Hope this makes the game more enjoyable!:D

Go here and download Shiftwindow - Pretty easy to set up...

What is wrong with your full screen?

i always LD when i alt+enter

Have you tried Alt-O, display options, view fullscreen? I assume it's the same thing but may be worth a try.

Fullscreen
 
Fullscreen freezes for me along with others i've asked so, this is simply a fix for windowed to appear in fullscreen.:cool:

Yeah, fullscreen is a disaster for me in Windows 7. Even when I can get it to look decent, the whole screen will minimize if I click anywhere in the lower-left corner. I will try this out; thanks for the suggestion!

Torros, try changing the WindowedMode=TRUE to FALSE in your EQclient.ini
Restart the game. this should stop it from allowing you to click 'outside' the game

This thread isn't about wineq2.0, but I thought I'd mention it.

Download and install wineq2.0. The free version works fine. That will give some additional options for your eqclient.ini

my monitor is native resolution 1920x1080. this is how my video portion of eqclient.ini looks. Change the width/height depending on your monitor.

Quote:

[VideoMode]
WindowedWidth=1920
WindowedHeight=1080
Width=1920
Height=1080
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=0
WinEQWidth=1920
WinEQHeight=1080
WidthWindowed=1920
HeightWindowed=1080
That allows for fullscreening a window of eq, increases stability, and I recommend it.

I found this to be the opposite for me. With wineq2.0 going, windowed mode is persistent. Whether you press alt-enter or use fullscreen in the game's options menu, it stays windowed regardless.

Correct.

What I said was that you could 'fullscreen a window of eq.' It is still windowed, but covers 100% of your display.
