How do i run darkstone in windowed mode through a shortcut?

[tduzan]

and also how do i switch back to fullscreen in game
this is for me to be able to use trainers without crashing my computer(my comp is a piece of shit)

[Malleus]

use -window in the command line.
But afaik, you can't switch back...

I usually play with: -32bit -nointro -noplaycine -hardmouse

Malleus

more command line options

[tduzan]

thanks for replying although i wish there was some way to go back to fullscreen

do you know if darkstone is dos compatible cause if it is then i can use the old control f10 trick to goto fullscreen

but thanks anyway
now i can use my trainers without crashing the computer


im at my grandmas house so i may not say anything here again until monday

When in Darkstone (without the -window), the alt-tab windows shortcut key will cause DS to minimize and hang out on the taskbar which causes your desktop to display again (you may want to hit escape first, though, so you don't get killed in the background). Clicking DS on the task bar will maximize it and put you back in the game.

Note that DS places your graphics card in 3D accellerated mode - using the OpenGL or D3D settings for screen usage as well. DS must run under DirectX - using DIrect X to access video and sound card services. So no, it is not 'Dos-Compatible' directly.
