How to force fangames to allow F4 fullscreen mode
« on: February 19, 2015, 11:41:22 PM »
download this https://www.mediafire.com/download/t9pqtp678kzj8b5/Fullscreen.exe then run it.   

once that's complete you can just press F4 as normal to enter fullscreen mode. This will work with all fangames and all other programs, so if you don't want to use it anymore right-click the "H" icon in your system tray menu and pause or quit the script.

also just in case you hate fullscreen, but want a bigger window you can use this https://www.digitallis.co.uk/pc/downloads/ResizeEnable.zip which will force all fangames to allow resizing.

Sorry for the bump, but i really like this program and it needs to get out there to the people who want fullscreen fangames, it can actually improve your performance in platforming and avoidance with those harder to hit jumps, my only issue is the fact that the script only resizes the window, so instead of black bars on the sides of the screen like most other fullscreen fangames have, these bars are white, and it can be annoying, for me at least.

Very nice, but do you have the basic ahk format. I use Auto hotkey to change my controls in games that don't allow it and I'd like to simply merge the two and not have to deal with two different scripts being on. Thank-you

Pretty awesome thanks. Was a bit scary to just download a random .exe file and run it but it seems safe ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

I'd recommend this program instead: https://www.brianapps.net/sizer/sizer34.html
It allows to resize any window to any predefined size and position using custom hotkeys. This is useful if you don't want the game to cover the whole screen, or want them to be bigger, but not fullscreen size.

It hasn't been updated sind 2013, but I have it in my autostart folder for a year now and never had any problems with it (tested windows 8 and 10) :)
