Fullscreen problem
Hi,

since the last patch the game always is starting in borderless window instead of fullscreen.
In the options there is fullscreen. So I have to change from fullscreen to window, save the options and then change it back to fullscreen. Every time I start the game!

Honestly, you should be playing in borderless windowed anyway because it provides better performance with this game engine.

If we're ignoring all unique context and user preference, then you should never play in borderless windowed because the screen tearing is awful.

Borderless window is unfortunately smaller than it should be. So you can see a part of the desktop.

Do any of your options/config settings save? If not, you might wish to check that <DRIVE>/<USR>/My Documents/My Games/Grim Dawn/settings/* are writable.

Change either your operating system's resolution or the game's resolution so they match.

The options are saved. When I start the game, it is a borderless window. But in the option is fullscreen. So I must change from fullscreen to window in the option, then save and then change back to fullscreen and save again.

But as you wished I checked the settings, they are writable.

And: Before the patch it worked normaly. The problem came with the patch.

Changing resolution didn´t work either.

Try putting /d3d9 in your launch options.
