Possible alt tab full screen fix

Some people have an issue with not being able to alt-tab in full screen. Disable full-screen optimization and apply.

 

Is there an advantage to running fullscreen like that and alt+tabbing back and forth between windows?

I run with a borderless window that is fullscreen and at the max resolution(minus 1 pixel)/refresh rate my main monitor can handle, which means I don't have to alt+tab but just have my 2nd monitor handy whenever I need to move the mouse over to operate other windows than the Darkfall one. Is this a problem for others or am I missing something?

I used https://forums.riseofagon.com/threads/darkfall-refresh-rate-lower-in-1920-x-1080.3883/#post-68051 as reference.

 

Pvping in 144hz and full screen is a must. Less screen tearing. If you actively pvp you can pick up on the difference right away.


Atm some people have issue where they can’t alt tab in full screen so they play in borderless. This seems to be a fix for people with single monitors.

 

Does running in borderless fix screen tearing issues as well? Or is it still optimal to play full-screen?

 

Think It has to to do with something from having two monitors that don't have the same refresh rates or having a not so good pc. Regardless tho I have a 144 and 60 monitor so when I'm running in border less I get a lot more tearing and throws off my aim pretty hard. Only time I get good game play is if I load the game as full screen and not touch it, might have something to do with how old my pc is, but test it out for yourself is all I can say

 

running game into fullscreen op and keeping it that way only shit thing is when u alt tab its black xD

 

I forgot to mention I also use this AHK script:

So what it does is it adds/removes borders and maximizes the window accordingly. When I load into the game I'm maybe running like 70-80fps. I toggle the script twice so I get borders, then remove them and my fps jumps to like 180 depending on where I am in the world. I haven't noticed any tearing but maybe that's just because I'm new.
