Listening while Alt+Tabbed - Demonic Spoon - 06-21-2007 Is there any way to hear sound from FL while alt-tabbed out? Often when on 80K + runs in cruise speed through systems to get from one jump hole to the next, I like to alt+tab out for a couple minutes while I wait. However, this makes me completely vulnerable to even a single hostile ship CDing and killing me. Is there any way to keep the sound going when I alt-tab out? Listening while Alt+Tabbed - klladude - 06-21-2007 Well theoretically if you were to run the game in window mode, you could just run your other programs with it behind them, therefor you wouldnt have to use alt tab. I heard of a program on the net that runs DirectX games that dont support window mode, in window mode. Ill look up the link to the program. Listening while Alt+Tabbed - Qunitinius~Verginix - 06-22-2007 You can run freelancer in windowed mode if you open up the properties list from the shortcut and where you see the target: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\EXE\Freelancer.exe" stick this: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\EXE\Freelancer.exe" -window Hope that helps.

Listening while Alt+Tabbed - crow - 06-22-2007 Yea you can i think im not too sure about that Listening while Alt+Tabbed - Demonic Spoon - 06-22-2007 Thanks guys. Listening while Alt+Tabbed - crow - 06-22-2007 no problem it was mostly QV's work not mine lol Listening while Alt+Tabbed - Demonic Spoon - 06-22-2007 Ach. You can't switch between window and full screen mid-game. Listening while Alt+Tabbed - TheMaskedOne - 06-28-2007 There is a key combination...It might just be for media player. Alt + Enter or Shift + Enter I think its media player only. Have a go :cool: Listening while Alt+Tabbed - DBoy1612 - 06-28-2007 No, you can't switch between Window and Fullscreen in game. You have to shut it down and click on the differnet shortcut. |
