Fullscreen?

from GalCiv2 Forums
Not really a gamebreaking bug, but an annoying one... I've unchecked fullscreen, and restarted, and repeated etc, but it isn't running windowed, am I missing something?

MAybe a silly question but........ have you changed the game resolution to be less than your screen resolution?

It's displayed in a frameless window. If Desktopsize = gamesize then you will see no difference apart from switching alt-tab faster and the possibility to run some other apps in the foreground (if they are "always on top" marked)

Unless you change the games resolution, all windowed does is slightly lower the graphics and allow the you alttab out of the game and back in with little or no loading time.

Yeah, I currently run the game at my normal resolution but windowed. Good for IM'ing while in the game.

I run the game using windowed mode because it looks the same yes is much better for me to alt tab.


It not first time i heard somebody say using windowed mode 'lessens' the graphics however, may i ask just what the difference is as i not noticed anything lol
