Bug: switching to fullscreen mode | Forums

[AlpineBrisket]

Steps to reproduce:

1.) Go into settings and switch the game to "Fullscreen Mode"

Expect: Switch to fullscreen mode
Actual: Sometimes, the game freezes and you need to ALT-F4

Expect: Once switched to fullscreen mode, it saves the setting
Actual: Once you quit the game, the settings revert to "Windowed" mode

The fix for this has always been to disable the Uplay overlay.

I get this also

I only ever revert to fullscreen windowed if the application doesn't open in the front, so once I click play on the Uplay app I can't do anything else until the game launches otherwise it will background and revert. Then when trying to change back to fullscreen it freezes and I have to relaunch, change it, and remember never to let the game background until fully launched again.

Jarodokc, I tried your suggestion and it didnt' work for me.

However, even if it did, that's not a fix.

New bug then, disabling UPlay always worked for me before the PTS and continues to work with the PTS.

Hope this will be fix as soon as possible by the developers.

The fix for this has always been to disable the Uplay overlay.

Over 7 months since the game came out, and we still have to disable the UBISOFT OVERLAY to avoid constant crashing to desktop...

Can confirm, STILL AN ISSUE.

Hey guys, its not a fix, but a way it works without quit game.

Before u change to fullscreen cange it on windowed.accept and than u can change to fullscreen without gamecrash.
