Full Screen Mode crashes
 

I'm new to EQEmu, playing on the P99 server, and have been setting up my UI to start playing again. I set the client to full-screen mode through the in-game menu, and my client immediately crashed and returned an error.

Now, when I log in, I crash at the character select screen, and I cannot log in to change the option through the same menu. Is there a way to set the game to run in windowed mode without logging in? If not, what's the fix?

If you go into your EQ folder and open up the eqclient file there is a line which will read :

WindowedMode=FALSE

Change that to

WindowedMode=TRUE
and it will be in windowed mode.

I'm still trying to figure out how to get it to work in fullscreen.

Figured out how to get it working in fullscreen. You just have to right click on the shortcut click on properties, go to the compatability tab and set it to run in 640 x 480 compatability mode. Then once it's loaded change the in game resolution to whatever you like. Works like a charm, but the login screen is really messy.

In eqclient make sure your FullscreenRefreshRate=60 not 0

[VideoMode]
WindowedWidth=800
WindowedHeight=600
Width=800
Height=600
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=60
WidthWindowed=800
HeightWindowed=600

hope that helps :)
