It has come to my attention that a lot of people are having a problem runing the game in Full Screen... I am one of them.

I have also noticed that when i ran the PS setup file (the one with the full screen option) on my friends Windows XP it ran fine, but when i ran it on my other friends Windows 98SE (same OC as i have) it did not run.

Also the error that i get is the same as the error that i get from other games that do not support Win 98, such as Thief3. So, i could be wrong, but i assume that the error is due to the file not supporting Windows 98.

My idea to solve this is to open up the file in Visual C++ 6, and edit it so that by defult Full Screen is turned on. I havent tried this yet because PS hasnt been instaled on my comp since it crashed a while ago (i dont blame PS for it, it was something else i downloaded)... But i am planing to try it today or tomorrow.

I dont know if this issue is going to be solved for CB, but never the less i will try to fix it for MB.

What do you think?


Edit: Oops... made the heading a bit to big... sorry... The last words that got cut off are suposed to be \"Full-Screen Bug\"

Well first of all, this should be addressed towards people who make mods for clients, like Ciry and Aineko (although Aineko isn\'t around any more as far as what I know), simply because the MB code is obsolete, and all devs are spending their time working on CB rather than making updates for MB. I have no clue however, if it is also an issue in the CB release, but from what I can tell, I haven\'t seen such a bug mentioned at all, not from the CVS testers and not from the devs, but then again, maybe it\'s because none of them run Windows 98. Anyway, I\'ll make sure to ask... someone... to give an oppinion on whether a fix is needed or such.

[Edit: Oh, and you might want to add what exactly the error is...?]

Why not edit the config files manualy?
It\'s not that hard
