Game goes to windowed mode after alt-tabbing etc
|
EDIT:
With Dx9 after alt tabbing, the game goes to windowed by itself and also has a 10 sec long black screen before it loads the screen and there's also a tendency for the game to crash when you try to put it back to fullscreen and/or alt/tab. With Dx 11, the launcher reverts to windowed at every launch just like with Dx9, also the mouse cursor blinks for a few secs upon alt tabbing. All works well with DirectX 9Ex - alt tabbing doesn't make the mouse cursor blink for a few secs and when you launch the game, it's in fullscreen. Using win 7 with an Nvidia card and POE is the one dowloaded from this site here. Other people have been having the same troubles, as seen in chat.

Crap... that started happening to me in Legacy league and I was hoping that it would get fixed for 3.0.0 but I see it hasn't. Sigh! :(

Necessity may be the mother of invention, but poor QoP in PoE is the father of frustration. The perfect solution to fix Trade Chat: www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2247070 |

"For me it's the opposite on DX11. I have always had it since DX11 was introduced, and now it finally doesn't seem to happen anymore. I don't get it with DX9Ex either, but it still happens on DX9. Someone in another thread thought it might have something to do with the game launcher. I'm using the Steam version on Windows 7 with an AMD graphics card. On a side note, I highly recommend using the Alt + Enter shortcut to go back to Fullscreen if you can't avoid the problem in some way. |

Ye i use the alt+enter on the login screen, cos it takes a second or so and then i don't have to change it ingame, which takes longer... it's still quite annoying though.
it probably is something to do with the launcher indeed. I'm using the version that you download from the main poe site here, also with win7. Nvidia card tho. Hopefully this gets noticed and fixed soon, because i've heard other ppl say the same in chat. |

Edited the first post, so that it makes more sence and gives more information.

I've also had this issue with the DX9, and DX9Ex versions in the videos settings. Haven't had an issue yet with DX11 but I use to use DX9 before and it didn't give me this issue.
I have Windows 7, and GTX 660. |
