Hello,

I've been experiencing a pb that might make me quit playing EQ. When I log in, game switches to windowed mode at character selection. Logging in anyway. Switch manually back to full screen. When I click anywhere, switches back to windowed mode ( can't play like that ).
I found a trick : I start camping, set to full screen. If I don't touch anything, I get character selection full screen and can log back and play normally. Takes time but working. Or would work if game didn't crash 4 times out of 5 when I try to camp. Makes me start all over again. Can take 10 or more just to start playing.

I run EQ on WinEQ2, doens't make a difference. Anyone has a way to prevent crash or switch back to windowed mode ?

Have to go into you ini file and change Windowed mode to FALSE. Its set to True for some reason on install.

Exactly what I've been doing, but game switches back to windowed.

Is your in game resolution the same as your desktop resolution?

Think I found solution, it's about resolution indeed. It's now lower than desktop resolution, but it seems to be working. Would have prefered higher res, but much better than windowed mode. Thanks for the tips.
