Problem with Emulated Full Screen mode and WoW/EQ2

Post by RustyX » Wed Nov 24, 2004 10:39 am

In both WoW and EQ2, when running in Emulated Full Screen, it seems when I go to click on buttons I can't... I have to position the mouse above where the button actually is to be able to click on it.

The trick is those two games must already be in windowed mode :) If they are set to full screen, they won't work correctly when the window is resized.

hey! I'm having that exact problem too! I thought it was just me...

the thing is, i notice i run a LOT smoother when i'm NOT in window mode. Can this be fixed in regular mode?

It really cant. I tried for a few days, but the behavior of the mouse is context-dependent. So I let EQ2 do its own mousework rather than try to tell it where things are in full screen. See, I can make it scale properly in full screen, but then if you try to move any UI elements it screws up anyway. I'll possibly do some work soon specifically for when the game is in full screen, but it's never going to work right if you resize the window.
