No Borderless Window or Windowed Mode

[Lafettie]

Is it just me or are there no Options at all to change that .... It annoys me to minimize the game when i just want to check Discord or anything on my 2nd Screen. ALT + Enter doesnt work either.

Try adjusting your sound while the game is running... You can't. At least, I can't. I have Logitech G910 Keyboard... When the game is on and I wanna turn the soound up or down I can spin the wheel on the keyboard as much as I want but it does nothing. Only when I ALT+TAB out of the game... Great game but needs some polish...

If you are on Windows 10 you can at least utilize the game-bar for that (Winkey+G) -- however this comes with a caveat, if you are using HDR it can ♥♥♥♥ up the HDR gamma until you alt-tab out and back in lol.... GG 4A. I hope 'RTX' was worth stripping the game of options -_-

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Troll.

Oh, I'm trolling because I am using words that you typed out? Or because some game that is "ancient" has a feature and this game doesn't?

Do you understand the concept of industry standard? I don't think you do, because not even self-proclaimed or even semi-critically acclaimed people don't know what the absolute industry standard is for games. Sometimes if they have been intimate with a genre, they have a decent idea of what's been added over the years but even then.

RTX didn't strip the game of options, read one of my previous posts to know the history of options for the Metro games.

Its not.Thats the funny thing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0328uIQP4gA I find it a bit odd that the game ini / cfg would be in a saved games folder but does that help?

Im just trying to fiddle with the CFG. Files so it might help.

I demand nothing except an option to change from Fullscreen to at least Windowed or at max Borderless Window mode ..... I can even do that in Empire Earth ffs. Its a simple thing and nothing special.

If it's "so simple" fix it yourself.

Now its fixed.Now you are really just a troll.

I'm a troll because I didn't want to share information with you because you insulted me.

You shot first.

I was able to force the game into windowed mode via the following method:
1. Open Geforce Experience
2. Click "Details" on Metro Exodus
3. Click the wrench icon just by the optimize button
4. Set "Display Mode" to Borderless Windowed mode

There are some tools that let you monitor your OS filesystem and registry for changes. I'm just too lazy right now to actually figure out what needs added to which config file or registry setting.

And I want to play in exclusive fullscreen but it will only let me play Borderless Windowed or Windowed for some reason, I know that the microsoft store version only allows Borderless Windowed because I tried that version first and had no end of issues, so I bought the epic version so I could play exclusive fullscreen but it won't let me and is causing me lots of issues, does anybody know how to fix this?

[Rhophius]

Sigh, such an easy fix that lazy trolls don't want to do, go into both the user.cfg files and change "r_fullscreen on" to "r_fullscreen off" then set your resolution ingame.

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Steam\your_user_name\412020\remote\
C:\Users\your_user_name\Saved Games\metro exodus\76561197960267366\

No don't mess with C:\Users\Public\Documents\Steam\your_user_name\412020\remote\, just change the values in C:\Users\your_user_name\Saved Games\metro exodus\76561197960267366\. Because the steam data folder is actually a sort of buffer between you cloud saves and the saves on your computer in your Saved Games folder. After changing the values in Saved Games the steam data folder will update on its own. This is how the game would change the files when you change in-game settings.

Also, when you want to disable a feature that could have a decimal value it's more correct to leave period after the 0 instead of just "0". All values in the config that could have a decimal value are left with a period at the end.

And there seems to be some kind of mouse filtering or smoothing going on, not confirmed, but it doesn't hurt to disable it if you don't that kind of stuff.

Change:
mouse_curve_coef 70.
mouse_curve_num 0
sens border 0.5

To:
mouse_curve_coef 0.
mouse_curve_num 0
sens border 2.

I can see how "mouse_curve_coef" and "mouse_curve_num" might be messing with mouse movement, but I don't understand what "sens border" could possibly do. Does anyone know anything about that?

Tell that to a Streamer :lunar2019laughingpig: Its standard in today times to have an option like that.Hell it even was standard around 19 years ago.

that's actually.... not true. I get what you're trying to say though. I recall 20 years ago a few games still required CMD mode. But today more games support None-Full Screen mode due to DX12 coming aboard and this game clearly supports DX12 with RTX. So I'll say with others; this is odd it doesn't support that.
