Disconnect when alt-tab to windows

Whenever I'm in a party and in an instance and I decide to alt-tab to windows, I get a "unexpected disconnection" and have to re-log in.

Happens a lot.

Check whether you are running the game in Fullscreen or Fullscreen Windowed mode. Then try the other.

In my experience Fullscreen Windowed is a lot more stable with most games if you often want to alt-tab. You will most likely have a slight fps loss compared to Fullscreen mode though.

Also a bit more details regarding your PC/OS/drivers would surely be useful to anyone trying to find out what might be causing this bug.
Hi,

I've heard some friends complain about this, and i have this problem too - but not all my friends.

What does seem to work when in full screen mode is use alt+enter insted of alt+tab, or, press the mircorstash button; then the game won't disconnect you from the server when you switch back.


small bug i guess.



Happy hunting!

system : win7 64pro / 8gb ram / nvidia gforce gt440 1gb / mobo asus pt6-se (i7 930)
all operate with latest drivers/bios.

Have tried both and stability don't explain it, the game disconnects from the server.. It doesn't crash.
i increased my RAM and its all good now >.<
