Is it any wonder people can feel as though they're being ignored? Shut up with your sanctimonious BS on how people shouldn't 'whine' about features not being implemented when it's a feature they consider very important for multiple-monitor users and people who would in general like to be able to alt-tab without risk of the game crashing/going through the hassle of windowing their game session every time. This forum is for suggestions for the PC version, and yet I'm seeing absolutely no feedback from anybody on Uberent's staff that any of this has been picked up and/or is in the works it's all 'community moderators' who have no control over or say on what goes into the final product and its updates. The impediment seems to be that the game and/or engine hardcodes the window style to force a border and dialogue frame to be on at all times why, I don't know, since no other game, even in Unreal Engine, does this. It's a fix that would take about 10 minutes to implement, and HAS been implemented with other Unreal Engine games such as Global Agenda and Mass Effect 1/2. Okay, buddy, these are two very, very minor changes to the window style I've already talked about that would make this work. I'd love to be able to at least use WinExp to force a no-border mode, so what's it going to take for a developer at Uberent to remove this arbitrary restriction on the window needing to have WS_DLGFRAME and WS_BORDER styles enabled? It seems like such a trivial fix! I have no idea why, but you can't have both WS_BORDER and WS_DLGFRAME unchecked unchecking both will just recheck the other one you just unchecked! Voila for the most part, you now have a previously fullscreen or window-only game running in Borderless Windowed!Įxcept it doesn't work for MNC. You need to uncheck WS_DLGFRAME and WS_BORDER under the Style tab, then, go to the Size & Position tab to change Window State to Maximized. You might need to hit the Refresh button, as winexp doesn't do real-time updates for windows opened after itself.

A program called WinExplorer offers a workaround that I'll detail below.įirst, highlight the window you want to manage in the program. One of these is Dead Space 2 another is World of Tanks (so we have one big-budget and one small-studio title for comparison). There are a few other games that don't have Borderless Windowed options that should.

I wanted to see this on the front page, because in any sort of modern game, there's no excuse for this feature being missing.Įspecially when the game BREAKS if you alt-tab from Fullscreen!
