Cant Go FullScreen

[AutumnWolf]

Game will crash on me when i open options and scroll down to find resolution and it just crash.

Edit*
**Theres a fix that worked for me, you simply open Nvidia Control panal, 3d settings, go to program settings and add sonic frontiers. And make sure preferred graphics processor for the program is set to high performance. Hit apply and it will fix.

You're not alone. I'm having the same exact problem

Oh no. I just started my download, will report back when I've tried.
Are you guys using a single monitor or have multiple displays?

My game started on 1080p fullscreen no issues, I switched to 1440p (Not sure if it applied or nothing changed) and also borderless fullscreen. No problems here

I have a single monitor and cannot open the game for more than 1 minute and it crashes. The game stays windowed during this time and if you press alt+ enter it doesn't work. There is also no fullscreen button in settings. I have already verified integrity of game files and restarted my computer and theses have not fixed it. You sure you didn't have to mess with any setings?

Ahh :/ yes for sure I didn't change anything for it to default to fullscreen 1080p. I wonder if it has something to do with NVIDIA scaling or something like that. Mine is set to Aspect Ratio perform on Display in NVIDIA control panel - Adjust Desktop size & position, in case yours doesn't match. You're not on ultra widescreen or anything right? (not supported)

im on multiple

I had the same issue. Seems like a problem with Windows deciding to boot the game with the integrated graphics (same thing happened with Sonic Origins).

On Windows I went to "Settings/System/Display/Graphics", then added the location of "SonicFrontiers.exe" and set it to "High Performance". After that it boots on full screen for me, without the crashings.

**Theres a fix that worked for me, you simply open Nvidia Control panal, 3d settings, go to program settings and add sonic generations. And make sure preferred graphics processor for the program is set to high performance. Hit apply and it will fix.

This also helped me I was having such a big headache trying everything to fix it, thank you so much!!

You're welcome! This is the same change that OP commented to do on the NVIDIA Control Panel, but doing it with that panel is now deprecated as it's now integrated on Windows 10 and 11 settings. Maybe that explains why the old method works for some people yet not for others?

In any case, better to use this menu if you notice graphic issues or a new game using the wrong graphics device!

Ugh, tried both ways and can't get it right! If I change to high def in Graphics, the game loads full screen but without video, just a black screen. If I change to high performance in NVidia, same thing.

I can set to global settings and the game works fine, just that it's in window mode and if I go into graphics options, it crashes.

Any other good ideas?
