Title: Freezing and crashing on tab
Post by: bennymcl on December 31, 2023, 06:29:58 PM
Hey all! Just getting back into this to play the campaign again, but after setting everything up (had a hell of of time getting it to show properly on my 34 inch ultrawide), I can't seem to tab out the game without it freezing and crashing. Whether it's in normal or window mode... suggestions? I tried finding the answer on the forum, but no luck. I might have missed it.

Thanks :)

Hi and welcome back but no alt tabbing available. Pausing the game and using Alt and Space Bar, combined with dgvoodoo2 settings, allows you to minimise and restore but mouse is still bound to the game.

Cool thanks. Problem I am having now is... I thought I had the screen set, but now it either goes full screen and mega stretched, or it stays as a tiny box either in the top left corner or in the middle of the screen. the settings provided in the youtube video don't seem to help .

Haha okay so I figured that out... but the alt spacebar doesn't minimize for me. Is it a specific setting in dgvoodoo2?

Just a windows context menu

Not sure I follow. What I mean is, the function you said about window minimization doesn't happen for me when I hit alt + space bar. Is that the right command or am I missing something?

Thanks!

Alt Tabbing doesn't work, so doesn't matter if you can't Alt & Space bar. I retested loads of different combinations before replying to your original post but the mouse won't move on the other tabs like on Chrome etc, since it is locked into the game.

For some reason, I just can't get this to work. I've played the game and I can kind of get it to work on SOME settings, but for some reason it is stretching out like this and the cursor doesn't work. I know that I had all the options set properly from the main guide and then when I installed the voodoo app and used that, the settings got reset (as you can see in my video) and then I can't click them at all... no idea what's going on, but it's quite frustrating.

Sorry for causing such a disturbance!

You're probably using the latest version of dgvoodoo2, instead of version 2.6.3 perhaps.

I can't see what your file path is dgvoodoo2 config but try storing it within the Dark Omen folder.
