PZ dont launch in fullscreen / just dont launch
I can't launch PZ (the latest stable version) in full screen or frameless mode. The game process is hanging in the task manager, but the game window does not appear. If I launch it in a window and then turn on full screen, the game crashes with an error "not responding". To fix this, I tried installing old video drivers, but now I updated (RX 6750 GRE 12GB) to the latest, checked that opengl is supported. Alternative launch did not help. Checking the game files did not help. Reinstallation did not help.
Tried launching with the -full parameter. This did not help. What can help launch the game in full screen? Where can I look? What can I fix?

P.S. Initially, I wanted to test a non-stable version, but it does not even launch in a window. When launching alternatively, the console says "failed to create display window". I would also like to solve this problem

P.S.S. Literally six months ago there were no problems with the game. The computer hardware has not changed during this time

It turns out that the stable version has the same error. "Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to create Display window."

Do you perhaps have multiple monitors connected to your PC?
#4
nawtet Jan 25 @ 4:54am 
yes, i have 2 monitors
#5

Does the issue happen when you disable or unplug the second one?

This is very strange. Now i disconnected the 2nd monitor and the game started in full window. I connected the monitor while the game was open and nothing broke. I tried to restart the game with the 2nd monitor and again the same problem.

So the problem is that the game can't determine which monitor to start on?

no, i played before with 2 monitors, there were no problems then
#8
nawtet Jan 25 @ 5:05am 
maybe it is possible to explicitly specify the required monitor via the config file?

The game always selects the "main" monitor set in your Windows Display settings. You can switch them that way.

well if the game doesn't start with 2 monitors, I think it means it doesn't select the main monitor.

To check, I disconnected the additional monitor and not the main one (the main one is checked in the Windows settings), so in both cases it should use the same monitor, but in the case when the additional monitor is connected, the game doesn't start

That means the issue happens when two monitors are connected, and is not monitor specific, right?

I tried it now. It doesn't start on the second monitor with the main one turned off. I don't know what exactly is different about the monitor, but the resolution and refresh rate are the same - 2560x1440, 60Hz

So, it turns out that the problem is in the specific monitor, I think.

Hm, are both monitors connected through a Display Port cable or HDMI?
