Fullscreen mode is simply a disaster... #70

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to full screen in just about any game, there are bound to be problems... 
Like in Mario Kart 64 for instance, it lags out, and can even hard-lock your 
system... Wonderful. Fullscreen has been a disaster in any plugin based on 
Rice's... including Rice Plugin itself. Something tells me whatever relates to 
it needs to just be entirely rewritten.

I've never seen in my life any single plugin having more bloody damn problems 
with simply running in fullscreen than I've seen in Rice and anything based on 
it... (Like Mudlord's version, etc)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The expected output is playing in fullscreen shouldn't even be fractionally 
different than running windowed(except for the fact it is filling your screen, 
duh.)... but instead, this broken piece of trash plugin falls flat on it's 
face, with unpredictable results. I'd use another plugin, but, I have no choice 
when it comes to certain game compatibility.

The frustration and constant losing clumps of hair never ends, as the onslaught 
of crashes, freezes, and graphical anomalies that occur when trying to run 
anything fullscreen keeps cropping up everywhere...

And no, this is not just my PC, this has happened on every computer I use this 
on. I highly doubt it will help any with that considered, but I am running a 
GeForce GTX 460...

Also, in before "then don't run fullscreen"... Look, that is useless when you 
are trying to organize tournaments on a TV screen connected to a PC...

Problems with switching to fullscreen are noted, and I am currently cleaning up 
the source code in which I want to re-write the fullscreen code due to problems 
you have also sighted above.

Ah, thanks for the response. I apologize if I came off like a bit of a dork, I 
was just kind of frustrated at the time. But, my point still does stand. Good 
to know it's being cleaned up finally, had dealt with these problems for years.

Ahhh yeah, the DX9 version that I've being using was way to broken for me to 
fix, the rewrite that im working on at the moment runs off of a more 
functioning base, it goes to full screen fine but there are still some serious 
problems with the switching to fullscreen but im slowly fixing them up.

Yep, as of 1.2 (Jan release) fullscreen is totally black, no matter how I tweak 
the settings.
