Title: Having problems with fullscreen
Post by: KillerAssassin on February 26, 2009, 04:53:26 PM

Hi guys, I need help. See, when I try to put full screen to play, I check in the box, but then it just flashes and stays the same. I really want to play full screen.

Thanks!

Hmmm, is your computer really old? Cause on my old old old computer it used to flash to go on fullscreen, wait a second, then go fullscreen. Every other computer that was half decent never did that. Can you change to other resolutions?

The question was directed to KillerAssassin since it was his problem. Just checking if his comp/vidcard is outdated. But THANKS! Glad to no your computers history!

I got my computer 9 months ago... it's a Dell Inspiron 530. I don't think it's very old, lol.

What's your refresh rate set to?  That or your resolution are probably set to something your monitor doesn't support.

My refresh rate on what? DP or my monitor?

The setting for your refresh rate in Paintball2 must be set to something your monitor supports, otherwise it will just pop back into windowed mode.  The best thing to do is just leave it at default.  The resolution may also not be supported.

Well, I tried what you said. It worked one time, but then it did the same thing.
