Full Screen Mode
Hello. I have yet to get VO to run reliably in fullscreen mode. I need the game to run at 1280x720x60 resolution. Yet when I modify the config.ini to windowmode=0 and run the game it opens in a window with a top bit cut off and reverts the ini file back to windowmode=1. Here is a copy of my ini. Any suggestions anyone?

Do you have xf86vidmode set to 0 for a reason? I'm pretty sure fullscreen won't work without that.
Aha. Between that and updating my drivers to the newest it has been fixed. Thanks kind sir.
If you want window mode do you need to set both
xf86vidmode=1
windowmode=1
Or should it be:
xf86vidmode=0
windowmode=1
When I set windowmode=1 I sort of get window mode, but the screen does not fit inside the window so I can't really click all the buttons in the game because when I move the mouse to the lower portion of the screen the OS mouse pickups up before I can move the mouse around inside the window.
I hope this makes sense, basically if I move too far up/down/left/right then the mouse outside the window pickups up and this is the OS mouse so basically I can't reach some of the functions or buttons inside the window because once I get to the edge of the window it changes to the operating system mouse.
For example if I'm in the station and I want to go down to select options toward the bottom, I can only really get to about the launch button then a little lower almost to the options button the OS mouse takes over so there is a sort of gap.
The chat area is too high off the screen too so I can't see all the chat text, but I see the chat window to enter chat text, however I can't see my own chat text because the chat window is too high, same issue in flight mode too
Any advise ?
Please advise
Thanks

The former. AFAIK xf86vidmode=0 is just a workaround for wonky drivers which sometimes don't supply a correct mode list. It also breaks fullscreen mode.
Do those issues happen with xf86vidmode=1 too? Do you get the same behaviour at different resolutions?
Maybe some desktop effects thing is getting in the way.. no idea.
