Fullscreen... not very full.

[Wannie The Sane☠]

I've seen a number of screenshots, but no actual discussion. My game can only display as either a small window, or if I go fullscreen, as a small window in the top left corner of my screen surrounded by black.

Is there a fix? Are we doing something wrong?

[Juliano]

I´ve got the same issue. If you figure out please let me know!

Thanks!

Same problem here. This sucks.

I love my PC but from 10 games 9 cause problems that force me to visit forums, mail the support, google for help.... sometimes I really wish I would own a console. Game start and enjoy.

I own a 360, and I was really into it for awhile, but eventually I came back to the PC and barely ever touch the xbox. The PC just has so many more options. And with Steam sales and the HumbleBundle games are cheaper than ever!

Screen issue is hilarious. I put it to fullscreen, everything went black. Restarted game, just a tiny box in the middle surrounded by black. Went to options, changed back to biggest window size, it put the tiny box in the corner but stayed in fullscreen. Did the same 'setting change' again, and it went windowed, but the tiny version. I'll play the game when/if this is fixed I guess. I'm not an ant.

I second everything of that.

same issue :/

[Tazi]

same here too :C

It's too bad; some indie developers actually seem to pay attention to these forums (like Weird Worlds), but I guess these guys don't. Odd how many of us seem to have this problem.

My PC is packing a GTX570, what about you folks?

HD3870 here, btw I've seen developer comments on this forum, and they seem to fix things.

Same problem. Both of these games are packaged horribly, and this is particular nuance is just the icing on the cake.

Aside from the fact that they were clearly shovelled on here without respect for presentation and usability, they seem like well structured and fun little games. As is though, I not only will not recommend them, I will warn others against purchasing.

*edit* Came back 3 months later to find the game muy updated. Hurray. Devs are my heros this week.

it's the game engine's fault. multimedia fusion causes resolution problems across the board. sometimes a fix must be made to specific user hardware and will not always be a solution for everybody. i don't think the developer can realistically test fixes on more than even a couple of machines much less to make sure he can produce a fix for thousands of customers.

i am not making an excuse for the developer but lunnye and wake were around for a few years before they were released on steam. the older builds were more compatible but it's a shame the steam releases are having so much trouble with resolution and aspect ratio. i have the same issues you guys are having and what is frustrating for me is being a long time fan of the developer and having to now play these favorites of mine with visual obstacles :-)

If there is a fix, I'd really like to hear it, it's quite upsetting as I was looking foward to playing the games in the Lunar Bundle.

well, considering other developers of mmf titles had the same problems with full screen..

that guy is arguably more well known than BB and he had to have his game remade so that full screen players with problems could have a fix. that wasn't the only reason but it turns out it happened to be the only solution for such a problem that players here are having too.

i suggest changing your desktop resolutions or pulling a crt monitor/tv from storage and hooking up with a vga box or s-video. lol, that's how i personally solve problems with some indie games made before 2010

anyway, i will personally start a thread for the 2 lunar pack games where people can post their personal fixes in hopes of some of them working for people with similar hardware. i have an ati 5870 with a 720p (1280x800 native) display that toggles 16:10 - 16:9 - 4:3 with built in scaling. it't the dell m110 projector. i have an old samsung crt 4:3 vga monitor and a sony trinitron 4:3 television. i ll let you know how it goes i a moment and will test with steam overlay enabled/disabled and msi afterburner enabled/disabled. ofc the kicker will be which scaling settings are enabled and if it's scaled by video card or display device as well as even trying anamorphic abilities.

These games seem so fun, but they really need to fix the screen resolution problem!

Same problem.
Tiny window or even tinier. If the games are good enought to be on Steam, they should work as intended.
I think Wake worked fine on Desura last time I played it. Just played the Steam version of Lunnye Divitsy (sp?) and it went fullscreen just fine.
