>borderless window still locks the mouse inside the game
>minimizing doesn't auto-mute the game
Works on my Linux machine
>>741553803Good and funny thread OP, I was thinking about this recently.There are games where I don't mind having the mouse locked into the game window, even in borderless fullscreen. Katana Zero, Intravenous, Rusted Moss, Rabbit Hole among some examples. It makes sense cuz the mouse and wide motions can be actively needed for gameplay, and it'd be frustrating to miss an attack by clicking on your another monitor(s) without realizing.It's a real pet peeve of mine when the game can be fully played on a controller or does not have the gameplay elements warranting the mouse lock. Some 2D platformers, slow-paced puzzle games but more importantly fucking visual novels shouldn't lock your mouse inside the game window unless there's a good meta/plot reason for it. It can become doubly egregious if you've taken the habit of typing down notes on your other monitor with notepad, or when you want to screenshot the game but it can only take a picture of your desktop instead.Depends on the game, but I also don't like when music stops once the game window is out of focus. Completely ruins the mood when you want to take notes on the other monitor. I dropped Lorelei and the Laser Eyes for this reason. It sounds petty, but I just hate it.Maybe it's a sign I should switch to pen&paper for note-taking, but I'm much more comfortable with typing and organizing files on a PC.
>>741553803>game keeps crashing until i turn the language to polish and then it works again
>Can set window to full resolution of screen>Can’t make it borderless or remove the minimize menu bar from the top>Can’t move the window>Can’t click on anything outside the window without using Alt-tab first>Using alt-tab without windowed mode causes the game to freeze when you tab back in and the only way to unfuck it is to reset the PC
>>741555646Mouse should obviously be locked inside the window if you're controlling the camera or some shit like that, put if its the actual cursor then fuck off with that shit, especially if the game is paused
>>741555865Doesn't always work but generally to go from full screen to window Alt + Enter is the standard combo to do such. Depends on the game/dev though.
>>741553803>game won't progress unless you change both your PC locale and display language to japanesePain Pain Go Away! Was the latest culprit
>minimizing auto-mutes the game
>game refuses to boot because your speakers are plugged into the "wrong" audio port
toxot
What's the name for when a window is almost fullscreen, but you can still see your windows taskbar?
>>741553803>game window not in focus>continues taking controller input anyway
>game boots up and resolution looks weird>go to settings, but its correct>turns out the start menu is out of res but once in-game its finei hate this shit
>>741556443Didn't Bioshock have some kinda issue along this line? I rember having to do some fiddly bullshit with it along those lines once, worked fine when I first played it, but then something like that happened, think it turned out I had an aux line plugged in the day before and needed to plug it back in lmao
>game spins up your HDD despite being installed on your SSD
>>741556998Yeah, Bioshock was fucky with audio
>gameplay is locked to 60 fps>main menu is 12000 fps
>>741557845>game installed on SSD>shader files somehow find their way on a HDD>none of which are C:
>>741558532why do games do this
>Game crashes every time you exit it>Runs fine otherwise
>>741553803>game stops working>plug in printer >it works again
>>741559408Lots of older games tied game logic to framerate, so increasing the framerate would literally speed the whole game up with faster animations, wacky physics etc, modern game engines account for very high framerates so its not really much of a thing anymore
Why is just alt tabbing or alt-4'ing still a mystery from game to game when consoles made it easy to just close or resume your game without bricking? pc gaming is still playing catch up with just basic convenience.
>>741553803are there any games that go all-in on providing all those minute settings to the player? oftentimes it's you can't even rebind basic actions properly (be it special keyboard keys or dpad on the controller), so it's no surprise nobody bothers with options like "stop when window is not focused" or "constrain mouse to window"so much for accessibility, when it's not just disabling game mechanics
>>741559693no oversight from those who control the OS, standards are suggestions at best, large degree of user controlfreedom is freedom to shoot yourself in the foot
>>741553803>Game doesn't have actual fullscreen just bullshit borderless window
>>741559470RE4 remake. I had to sign out every time I exited the game because it would lock me into black screen and cant alt tab
>>741553803>game stutters if you have a gamepad connected via USBfucking DS3 on Win7
>>741559470My experiences with modded New Vegas. Barely any crashes or anything, besides that.Or loading screen stuck.
>>741560104there's no difference in performance between the two on newer games as the way Windows handled rendering them changed
>alt tabbing doesn't also quicksave
>>741553803>alt tabbing will crash the game>clicking anything when the game is loading will crash the game>save points are spread apart by around 30 minutes
>>741562013Disliking cats is not a personality, grow up.
What's the point of Borderless window? Doesn't it run worse than fullscreen?
>>741564290alt-tabbing is much faster
>>741554136heres the attention you want.
>>741560396It took me over a year to figure out that my wireless xbox one controller would cause stuttering on Windows if it went into sleep mode and I connected it again, fucking Microsoft cant do anything right
>>741553803>update drivers>game refuses to launch>delete and install drivers from the old disk that came with my gpu>game starts>ai and physics bugs that were present before are now gone
>>741559470>Game runs like absolute ass>Runs perfectly during the few seconds it takes for it to close itself
>>741568795Sounds like DRM bullshit
>using anything but 16:9 has devs zoom in to cover the screen
cat trannies are gayer than literal faggots
>>741570476Aren’t you tired of getting banned over and over, autist?
>>741553803You need it for rts otherwise you cant scroll by moving your mouse to the edge of the screen
>"updated" DOS game now uses 36% of a modern CPU to run
>unplug headphones>huge fps boost
>turn down graphics settings to lowest>FPS drops>load times increase

>game CANNOT be minimized no matter what
>open disc drive tray>+200 fps
Xd let's post pictures of cats and pretend to talk about videogames
>>741573161yes, that's hecking 4channel culture newfagzoomerchudnazi
>alt tab game>game music is playing in the background
>alt-tab to let some game event/timer/health regen/night cycle whatever do its thing while i do something else>it paused the game
No friends, no life, catnigger general
>>741553803>borderless window mode>still mutes the game if you unfocus the window
>Alt tab>Game immediately forces itself back open
>>741558753Shader files should be underneath your profile directory.
>alt-tab>have to do it another 3-4 times before it let's go of the mouse>camera still moves until I'm on my other monitor

>>741574630>nigga Nigger*Sad, pathetic, empty lifed catnigger
>quick load is bound by default to f9 instead of f7
>>741553803kit
How do I turn on borderless window mode in real life?
>>741574923Just go into settings and change it, idiot
>>741575127How do I open the settings menu?
>>741558532>Witcher 1Thank you for teaching me how to cap fps with afterburner
>>741575728Driver level caps are usually better.
