Fullscreen++

[Zeus81]

Fullscreen++ v2.0
by Zeus81​

New fullscreen mode that is more smart and make a better use of the screen surface (no black frame).
Alt+Enter still uses the old fullscreen mode, to use the new one press F5.
You can also press F6 to change the screen ratio, be it in fullscreen or windowed mode (both ratios are independents).
This script automatically saves the last configuration used in the Game.ini file (fullscreen mode & ratios) and restores it when you restart the game.
So before sharing your game do not forget to put the config you want by default, the first time we start your game.
The old fullscreen mode is still present, but you can disable it by setting true on line 9 (instead of false).
However it will also disable Alt+F4, and if you press Alt+Enter at the same time you can bypass the prohibition anyway.

def hide_borders() SetWindowLong.call(HWND, -16, 0x14000000) end


def show_borders() SetWindowLong.call(HWND, -16, 0x14CA0000) end

What are these borders?

 

[Zeus81]

The "frame" of the window + the title bar.

Nice script. Sadly my busts look really bad when enlarging the screen. Because the busts are scaled from 2500+ down to 640 and then back up to 1920. Looks horrible (I want Ace in full hd...) but the script itself is good.

 

[Dark Horseman]

The option to resize to double resolution maintains the look of most graphics. Resizing to 1920 is like 2.3x the resolution, so you get some really jagged edges. Going exactly double your resolution keeps the pixels soft-looking.

Very nice improvement over original script I was using. Thanks a lot.

This script only disables the Left Alt key, it doesn't disable the Right Alt key as I can still press Alt + Enter to enter fullscreen.

 

[Zeus81]

Have you enabled this option line 9 ?

 

[gameus]

Yeah I did. Like I said, when I press Left Alt + Enter it doesn't do the fullscreen like it's supposed to. That works great, however, whenever I press Right Alt + Enter, it still goes fullscreen. I'm pretty sure Right Alt and Left Alt have different key codes.

Of course they have different key codes - they are two different key and have different labels (Alt, Alt Gr) on regular keyboards.

Or - to be more precise - the right Alt Gr key is wired to behave the same way as if the left/regular Alt and the Control- Key are pressed at the same time.

 

[Zeus81]

In fact with my keyboard Alt Gr + Enter never go fullscreen (I mean even without this script).

Anyway you may try to modify the lines 114 & 115 like this :

    inputs = [1,18,2, 1,164,2, 1,165,2].pack('LSx2Lx16'*3)    SendInput.call(3, inputs, 28)And tell me if it changes something so I know if I have to add it to the script.

 

[gameus]

Still seems to be happening. 

EDIT: However, it did disable Right Alt + F4.

 

[wethefallen]

I LIKE THIS SCRIPT! It has a staggeringly better frame rate then the default system for my game. Is there a simple way to disable the f5 as well? I'd like to lock my game in Fullscreen mode when the time comes.

 

[Zeus81]

No I didn't provide such a feature, because we should always let people play as they like.

@gameus, one last test maybe, try to modify the line 169 like that :

release_alt if Disable_VX_FullscreenIf it still doesn't work then no idea.

 

[Zeus81]

I've made a small update :

  Log Change :    2.1 :      - ratio is corrected when out of range of our screen      - new functions to setup ratio      - new functions to setup vx default fullscreen mode

 

[Nosleinad]

Zeus, is there a way to simple override the defaul fullscreen method? Like if the player press alt+enter or F5 your fullscreen++ will be used instead.

In my opinion, there's no reason to keep both fullscreen methods for the player  .

Sorry about the above comment, i didnt read all the new features of your script =). It's already implemented.

PS: About the link of the script, i think you didnt pasted it all as the script only has commentaries and ends on line 40 =).

 

[Zeus81]

Oh sh*t. x)

I've fixed it, thanks.

There is one reason to keep the default fullscreen : It's pretier.

The new fullscreen can give good result with x2 ratio but when it fit screen it's dirtier because of the nearest neighbour stretching.

Its the best full screen script, very thankz Zeus xD

Could u make it compatible with: Mouse System Buttons 2.5, please???

Thank you

 

[Zeus81]

Well isn't it already compatible ?

Anyway there is nothing I can do in this script to make it more compatible, that's the others scripts that need to be modified. :/

 

[diegobh]

It isnt =(

When i use F5 and get fullscreen the mouse and the icons at bar stops works =(

I dont knew the language, so i cant do it by myself.

All the two scripts are the best i've tried, it would be wonderfull if the 2 works together...

Anyway, very thankz for ur script, its amazing

UPDATED: i tried again.

When the game start the mouse isnt working so ive to get out the mouse of the game screen and slowly get back the mouse, near the borders.

One time the mouse will enter the screen and will works.

But if the mouse is too near from borders, the mouse stops to work...

It would be perfect if the mouse starts working when the fullscreen starts
