Title: Diaspora in Full Screen Mode?
Post by: praseodym on February 14, 2013, 04:23:49 am
Hi friends,

congrats to this fantastic mod.

How can I start Diaspora in the Linux version in full screen mode 1280x1024? It starts in window mode only, and some HUD details are doubled on the screen or not on the screen (missile banks, subsystems of targets, etc). Also starting in 16:9 mode did not work.

Thanks in advance.

In wxlauncher, check the Advanced tab, under "Dev Tool" there should be "Run in Window".  Make sure that's not checked for starters.  I'm not sure about the doubled HUD stuff, so please create & post a fs2_open.log file :)

The doubled hud is a known issue:

Thanks for the answers. Unfortunately, compiling wxlauncher did not work. I am using YAL and window mode is deactivated there. Any hints for one of the config files?

I thought that was a BluePlanet specific thing...

There's a file called cmdline_fso.cfg which should be either in:
a) ~/.fs2_open/data (probably in here if YAL created it)
b) <Diaspora install dir>/data

Edit that and remove "-window".  Note that if you run YAL or wxLauncher again after this, it'll overwrite the file and you'll have to remove that command line flag again.

Thanks, it the /Diaspora/data/cmdline_fso.cfg. Removing "-window" solved it.
