Thank you for the advice. I have had “Cockpit Displays to External Windows” unchecked throughout, though. The Nvidia settings work fine in F4 BMS. I have not discovered any side effects related to other programs.

RE: Wrong game GUI size : BMS 4.32 update 6
Hello Buddyspike,
I have Nvidia GTX 670.
1: I selected NVIDIA Control panel -> Display -> Adjust desktop size and position.
2: Changed “scaling mode” from “Aspect Ratio” to “Full-screen”.
3: Changed “perform scaling on:” from “Display” to “GPU”.I now have both GUI and game as full screen.
I do not know what happened. I assembled a new PC. Installed win7 + Falcon BMS without modifying anything and all was well for a while, until suddenly I had the problem I reported.
I did have a recent NVIDIA driver upgrade. Perhaps the upgrade flipped/changed a parameter, or I did something else wrong…. -

Hello Pilgrim, Icarus and all,
Works for me!
I unchecked Aspect Ratio and selected full screen instead.
Thank you Pilgrim and Icarus.

RE: Wrong game GUI size : BMS 4.32 update 6
Hello again,
Ok now I know what windowed mode is. I tried F4-BMS.exe -window. Then the answer is no, I am not using windowed mode. I am launching through “Launcher.exe”->launch. No additional parameters.
However, the “non windowed” GUI looks and have the same size and resolution as the “windowed GUI”, but the “non windowed” GUI does not have a proper window frame, just a large background.
I prefer the initial “full screen” look when the GUI covered the while 1920x1080 screen. -

Hello Icarus,
I do not know if I run in windowed mode, but I do not think so.
I have a clean install with defaults, besides keys and resolution.The game runs full screen 1920x1080. The GUI does not have a window around it, just a wide black frame.
How do I control window mode, or not, in order to test your proposal?

Wrong game GUI size : BMS 4.32 update 6
Problem:
My problem is that the intro movie and the main game screen GUI is small and occupies only the central part of the screen, while the surrounding screen area is black.
However if I launch from the (small) game screen, “instant action”, “dogfight”, etc and the simulation starts then the entire screen is used, as before.History:
I do not know what triggered this condition. Everything was fine after first install of BMS U1-U5 and then U6. The GUI filled the screen, but suddenly it started to use only the central part.System:
I have a 1920x1080x120Hz screen and that is what I use in setup->graphics->resolution 1920x1080x120 Hz.
I use the GeForce 320.49 driver and before that 320.18. Windows 7.A driver downgrade back to 320.18, which was the one used when everything was ok, did not help.
I have un-installed BMS U1-U6 (using BMS setup un-install) and reinstalled, but that did not help.
Is there a way to control GUI size separately? Is this related to a config file?Best regards,
Magnus Larsson
