different screen problem

Malik2 · 05-17-2008, 07:41 AM

After the update the game laods normally.

When I change the game form the window to max, I can no longer click on any mob or character, chat, or select any quick button.

If I go back to the window, the game acts normally.

Any suggestions?

I still have this problem.

Anyone else have this?

Yes is a game bug on Windows. If you start the game in full screen mod, then you switch to windowed, mouse pointer doesn't point anymore where it should be. Linux are not affected by that bug.

What happens is that your window and the game pictures resize, but the "data" has stayed in the same spot as when the screen was windowed.

Yes it is an uncommon windows error that I have seen on a handful programs through the years. I believe it stems from a lack of communications between the program and the windows OS. They do not fully communicate on the window resizing so the program in a way thinks that it is still in full screen mode even though windows had "windowed" it.

I bet that if you moved your mouse around on different parts of the screen, you would get the pop up display for mobs/nps that are actually in another location on the screen.
