    Default Full screen bug?

    Sorry if this is something really simple that I am missing but I cant seem to run in full screen.
    This is what Im seeing- http://i.imgur.com/sks2SBz.jpg
    I tried upping the resolution to match my monitor settings but all that happened was the mouse pointer could no longer find the buttons on screen-everything was off by a height of roughly 5cm or so.

    Go to: M2TW\mods\EBII
    Open EBII.cfg in notepad(right click and edit).

    Search for these and set to false:
    windowed=false
    borderless_window=false

    Sounds like you need admin rights to your own system (not an EB2 issue)

    Not a bug, a feature! You have "windowed mode" active. Find the .cfg file (either in the M2TW root directory or the EBII directory and change this setting:

    windowed=true (or windowed=1)

    to

    windowed=false (or windowed=0)

    Thanks a lot guys, it all works perfectly now. The speedy response is very much appreciated, after so many years work I wouldn't blame you guys for taking a few days off for some heavy drinking. The battle and campaign screens both look fantastic, you guys are genii.

    I tried these fixes but nothing is working for me. I did extract Aldin's fix to make my game work.

    Mine looks exactly like that but for some reason the fix won't occur. MY game still will not fill up the whole screen; only about 40-45% of it.

    try this instead,
    windowed = 1
    borderless_window = 1
    or vice versa

    I can't open the file in notepad... o.0?

    Nevermind, re-opened the game and it's in fullscreen somehow.

    When I launch the game it is two times bigger than my screen, it.. zooms. I tried to edit EBII.cfg, but I could not open it with notepad - it wasn't an option. I also have this hs_err_pid3204 file on EB2 folder and it says something about JAVA threads and errors :/. I have done all the hotfixes.
