Crusader in Window mode? #610

Open CodeAssemblingChicken opened 4 years ago

CodeAssemblingChicken commented 4 years ago

While I don't know if it is possible to implement, I would be happy to be able to run Crusader in window mode instead of fullscreen. That would make it a lot easier to switch to other programs (it seems to be glitchy when using alt-tab). I couldn't get it to work with different methods (like adding -w to execution path), so I assume vanilla Crusader does not allow this. But in case anyone has an idea I would be happy too :)

this is doable with dxwnd https://sourceforge.net/projects/dxwnd/

Krarilotus commented 4 years ago

As it is doable with dxwnd, it would be great to have an inbuild solution. A solution that would probably need a lot of work, looking at the directX drawcalls and figuring out if we could insert a different system?

@PodeCaradox wrote/adapted a wrapper dll, which should be able to do this without dxwnd. This is somewhere on the UCP discord...
