Fieldrunners
Gaming on a Windows-Tablet - Various Problems
Hi,

i'm trying to play this game on my Windows 10 Tablet but there are some serious Problems:

1. The Touchscreen isn't working correctly, it's absolutely impossible to place a tower to the desired position etc. it seems like the touchscreen is only working as a "normal" pointing device (like mouse)

2. With enabled scaling in Windows (in my case 200%) the Game is also scaling, even in fullscreen mode - so it's unplayable because only half of the game is visible...

3. The framerate is very low - around 25fps and the game feels laggy.


Are there some fixes for those problems? Or any other advice?
Did someone manage to run the game correctly on a tablet (maybe Surface etc.)?

I also own Fieldrunners 2 which works great on my tablet - touchscreen is working, no scaling problems and great framerate (50fps+)... so i don't understand why Fieldrunners 1 makes so many problems :(

Thanks and kind regards

I released Fieldrunners 1 about 3(? not sure now) years ago, and I had not since been asked to update it, but it would be cool to report these problems directly to Subatomic Studios so they can decide if/who to get to fix it. The framerate had generally been an issue for very specific hardware configurations, but I hadn't been able to narrow it down by casually troubleshooting it with people on these forums. :( It is strange, though. As for touch/scaling, we released long before any consideration to be dealing with those kinds of platform problems, but Fieldrunners 2 was built from the ground up to dynamically deal with all sorts of crazy resolutions, etc.
