Gauntlet does not go fullscreen

[BarrasGalago]

I can run gauntlet the music plays and I can press enter and play the game but it will not come to the fullscreen. I have tried deleting and reinstalling also launch option commands. When I click on the program on the taskbar nothing happens. Please help.

You tried..you know, checking the "Fullscreen" box? If so, try holding Alt and pressing Enter.

Hello,

I'm sorry you're experiencing technical difficulties with the game. If Alt + Enter does not work, please keep clicking on the Gauntlet tab on the taskbar until a mini-window of the game appears next to the tab. Then, right-click on the mini-window and click Maximize, or you can navigate to the options and put the game in full screen mode. Please let me know if you are still experiencing issues after following the above instructions.

Thanks!

Alt+Enter worked for me. Thank you, Jebus

Try opening the task manager, right clicking on Gauntlet and maximizing it from there. Worked for me!

had same ptoblem , found out i had teamvieuwer running in the background. :) now it works again :D p.s. love the new levels with waves :)

Yea, teamviewer will cause the no full screen to happen. I think it is the <--> overlay that teamviewer does. Turning off teamviewer allows Gauntlet to go full screen again.

Can confirm that closing teamviewer and Alt + Enter made the game full screen. Otherwise it was impossible to full screen and you could see the taskbar and window mode. Using the Fullscreen option would make the screen go black for a few seconds then revert back to windowed mode. Close teamviewer before running game.

This also happened to me. Somehow, unchecking the V-Sync option immediately sent the game into fullscreen.


Yeah, I don't get it either.

None of the above worked for me, the only way I fixed this (Nov. 2017) was to go into the config file "C:\Users\<NAME>\AppData\Roaming\Arrowhead\Gauntlet\users_settings.config"

right click and edit with notpad

its all squeezed together but look for the following settings:

borderless_fullscreen = false
fullscreen = false

and change them to "true"

borderless_fullscreen = true
fullscreen = true

The following is my config file that worked for me:

adapter_index = 0
aspect_ratio = -1
borderless_fullscreen = true
fullscreen = true
