Windows change

Postby Cookie » Thu Jun 23, 2005 6:31 am

This may sound like a stupid question, but it is coming from a reasonably computer illiterate FS2004 flyer. I have recently re-formatted from Windows 2000 to Windows Xp, and now the simulator appears in a window rather than allowing me to use full screen. In the pull down menus the full screen toggle isn't even available for use. Anyone?

Alt + Enter will get you the full screen. Don't know if there is a preset to start in Full Screen as I always fly in windowed mode.

But Alt + Enter will get you full screen.

In the FS9.cfg file, set:

[GRAPHICS]
FULL_SCREEN=1

Use the Search feature to find the file. Or, look in the documents and settings folder.
