Can't get full screen under Windows 7?

(1/4) > >>

Stabwound:
I was going to post this in the bug forum, but then I thought, well, this probably isn't a bug with DoomRL itself.

Anyway, does anyone else here play under Windows 7? I recently started using it, and saw the new release of DoomRL and wanted to play again. Only problem is, I can't seem to get it to go into full screen; alt+enter does nothing, and trying to maximize under the window options just makes the small window go to the top left.

Has anyone had any luck with this? Thanks!

Can't wait to play this new update. :D

Change the font size (and type). That's pretty much all you can do...

Aki:
On this note, i'd really like to have Fullscreen mode fixed. Why doesn't it perform under Vista, anyway?

Stabwound:
I'm downloading the virtual Windows XP mode thing for Windows 7 and I'm hoping it'll work with it. I can't stand playing DoomRL in a tiny window; it's so much more atmospheric in full screen (to me, anyway) and it just looks better. I have no idea why it won't go into full screen normally though.

ParaSait:
Aww, so Win7 can't display the console full screen either? That sucks! >.<

I have found though, that Windows Vista can make the console fullscreen if you're in safe mode, for some reason.
Why it is like that, Iii dunnoow...
