Windowed Mode?

June 4, 2006 6:46:19 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
I've been searching in the forums here for a little while and I couldn't manage to find what I was looking for. Is there a way to run GalCiv in windowed mode by chance?

If anything it would probably be changing the shortcut to have a "-w" after it, but, I'm not sure, and I don't feel like trying 3 million things before I finally find it out, if it even exists at all.

Any one know?

Uncheck the fullscreen option in the Video tab of options, and restart the game.

I use a shortcut with this string as the target:

"C:\Program Files\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2\GalCiv2.exe" w

simple as that.

Go into your options menu and click on the video options there should be an option that says fullscreen if you click off of that you will run in widowed mode the next time you start the game.. The graphics will look a little distorted but that is normal..
