I found several old post about full-screen problem, but not recent ones. From start I was playing in Full Window mode (I think it was default setting). When I was researching why Nvidia Shadowplay won't work with MWO I found that I'm not playing in Full-screen. I change setting and I could capture video with Shadowplay. But another, more annoying problem appears. When logging into game, window begin flickering. And with switching with Alt+tab I sometimes have luck to get into game. But then, I have many crashes. In the middle of game, at the end of match ... As soon as I change mode to Full Window, problem is gone. Anyone else have this Full-screen problem?

Greetings,

Check what the difference between your normal desktop resolution is and what the game is playing at.

- Sometimes the change between resolutions can cause a crash.
- Especially if in full screen.

Same resolution. I always play at native resolution.

Greetings,

There was some discussion about the 'in-game' resolution being 'locked' to a specific size resolution. This was not the UI or the Mech lab but only the actual match resolution.

- This appears to be where most people are having the screen size change become an issue and causing crash's.
- I have not seen anything within the users settings that could change this, or if it would cause problems/break the gameplay.

I've posted a question off to the MWO game designer to check if there is indeed a 'hard-lock' for the game play resolution.
- And that it is causing crash issues when changing back to the UI size.

I will advise when I have a reply,
9erRed
