Full screen
-
when i install the new version of bms (4.35 ) the sim become small screen … not in full screen …. any help pls ?
-
I just figured it out. In the game go to setting and change it from borderless window to full screen. Also adjust your screen resolution if needed.

thnx scotters … its work …

But now running Fullscreen … I’m no longer able to safely alt-tab back to the windows desktop. This was something long broken, but fixed in 4.34 … now it seems to have regressed?
(Windows 10, version 20H2 … nvidia graphics with g-sync)
With the move to DX11, does it not introduce any latency or performance penalty to run borderless? Looks like I’ll have to try that for a while.

Press Alt-Enter

In the graphics tab in setup, the setting for window, borderless, and full screen is just for the UI. Check what resolution is specified in the resolution setting. Set this to your monitor’s resolution and 3D will be full screen and the UI will be windowed.

press Alt+Enter
Thanks … I forgot that was a thing.

Version
4.35.0 (x64)
Build
22548Detailed Description
I want to use to clone the screen between the monitor and the TV via HDMI. It works very well when I use different programs there are pics and sound .
But since the 4.34 and now in 4.35 if I want tho play the sound is missing.
When I start the program in first time there was sound and the game run in windowed.
Then i went the settings menu and change from windowed to full screen and the resolution to 1980x1080 60p and apply.
The sound immediately gone when the screen went full screen.
It doesn’t come back until I change back to windowed and restart the game.

No crash just bad behaveingReproducibility Procedure
1. start game
2. go setteings
3. change from windowed to full screen
4.applyExpected Behavior
When I change the screen size there remain the pic and the sound also. I also selected the GPU in the menu on 1050TI but the max resolution only 1920x1080 , I can’t set up bigger than FHD but I would like to use 4K.
My rig is a laptop Lenovo satelite Y520 intel I7 7700HQ (with HD630 GPU) + 1050TI GPU , 8gb ram, 256gb SSD, win 10 64 bit 2H2 latest drivers. LG 55" 4k TV and HDMI cabel. There is only one HDMI slot on the laptop, so it doesn’t matter which GPU provided the pic and in the same connection goes to sound

In order to ‘Alt Tab’ out from the game to do something else like say check the PDF manual (which I could in 4.34), I now have to use Borderless Window mode and hit the Windows key (not Alt Enter). Otherwise, the game seems to hang in some twilight zone mode and I’d have to sign out of windows to resolve it. Downside is the windowed game interface is small. Anyway to make it bigger? Thanks

Wow… I did not know ALT+TAB works for BMS4.35
I found out ALT+TAB to switch Fullscreen/Borderless sometimes freeze BMS.
I recommend Window mode. -
Hi!

So what about the supposed regression?

So what about the supposed regression?
In 4.34 I was running fullscreen mode, and was able to alt+tab back and forth to windows desktop apps seamlessly.
But in 4.35 it freezes up / goes into twilight-zone, as GrEaSeLiTeNiN put it. Unless I remember to hit [alt+enter] first (or quickly thereafter) to transition it into borderless mode.
The ability to alt+tab safely was something long broken in BMS… 4.33 and earlier… I thought you guys did some specific work to fix it in 4.34, no? But maybe I was just benefitting unknowingly from Windows 10’s new “fullscreen optimizations” thing, which pretends to run game fullscreen but really it’s hosted in a special borderless window tightly integrated with DWM behind the scenes. [1]
[1] https://devblogs.microsoft.com/directx/demystifying-full-screen-optimizations/I think maybe that came in a windows update around the timeframe of 4.34… so maybe I wrongly assumed it was a BMS bug-fix.
Hmm… regardless, now (4.35) my system seems to freeze up when alt+tab’ing (or hitting [start] key or similar) when I’m running fullscreen, regardless of whether I have that windows compatibility-option selected or not. Strange.
Not a big deal (to me) I get near identical FPS running borderless vs fullscreen.

So it is all good.

Well if a player needs to toggle between the desktop and the 3D world (which he could do easily with alt-tab in 4.34), now in 4.35, he can only do so safely (without hanging the screens) in borderless mode using the windows key but that means a small game menu screen. I guess it’s ok except campaign and TE briefings might be hard to read with the small menu window. Any way to make the menu window bigger? Thks

No prob here with ATL+TAB even in full screen mode. ALT + ENTER is also working fine on ly side to switch from windowed mode and full screen mode.

What OS and graphics card are you testing, Dee-Jay?

Alt+Tab doesnt work any more for me when at fullscreen.- I tried Alt+Enter to switch to window mode, but it doesnt let me minimize so tried then Alt+Tab, this time from window mode, and it works.

But huh, yeah, that is where trouble comes in… ALT + NUM-ENTER is SetRWRSearch callback - well , not anymore, now it cycles window - fullscreen (as it should by windows design).
- fix is easy just remap that callback to something other, like ALT+NUM8
-BUT!!! Dee-Jay… that means that now windows(os) is primary controller for keyboard shortcuts actions, not BMS as before … that probably came with new directx implementation
That means that whole another can of worms will open with funny shortcuts like ALT-CTRL-INS/DEL … as windows have their own actions for some of them - since now windows is primary… we’ll see
There will be remapping … Think about what fun with SHIFT-DEL when you erase whole your desktop without recycle bin . heheYou should cross check for volatile key-combo commands in windows and blacklist them for use in BMS. Probably not much work there but just to keep in mind.

This is why we need your feedback indeed.
Personally, I don’t use combo (or VERY few) … aliment all is DX on my side. The other actions I do are through mouse and 3D pit.
