i will not beg for it, it was only an suggestion.. one of those, which would make ren better.

Just play Renegade fullscreen on the same resolution as your desktop and use Alt-Tab to swap Thumbs Up
Should go fast enough when the resolutions are the same


Do I sound retarded?

Of course I'm playing Rem on the same resolution as my desktop (obvious with a TFT) and I use Alt/Tab.

But compare: in windowed mode (vista aero) i can switch within a single second to the second monitor and back. very stable, no crashes.

in fullscreen it takes ~ 5 seconds, until ur are fully back ingame.

and sometimes the game tends to crash during switch in fullscreen mode.

i know a lot of people who need to switch very often, because mods use irc ingame very often. or to use the TS window on the other screen.





You don't sound retarded but because you said it took so long i thought you ran it on a lower resolution.
Im playing on the same resolution+fullscreen and im back on desktop in ~1.5 second max Huh
I only had it take so long when my screen and game resolutions where different. (although renegade widescreen kinda sucks in the menus Razz )

As a temporary solution you could drag the renegade screen menu bar just outside your screen Razz
