Title: Fullscreen shuts down
Post by: doubledragoncc on July 28, 2016, 06:22:04 PM
Hi, this might not be a GPB thing but I have not had it with other software.

On my multi screen setup My 40 inch flatscreen is the main screen so when I start GPB or any games in full screen thats where they run. Normally I can go on the other screen and use other programs and the game will just stay open and keep running but GPB the whole program screen closes down and GPB is still running but no GPB is showing, just the desktop.

This dont happen with any other games and when live streaming its a bitch. I cant go out of the GPB screen and do a thing without upsetting the GPB screen. It stops the stream picture too. It also upsets GPB and will cause it to crash sometimes.

Is this a GPB thing or can it be a windows thing I forgot or dont know?

HELP!!! Killing me.

@Piboso

With multi screen setup GPB in FULLSCREEN closes if anything opens in windows( cleaning software warning etc) while I am riding and is really pissing me off as other games do not close the fullscreen down.

PLEASE tell me if there is a way to stop this.

Thanks

Dont know if its the same but i had sometimes when playing that it would go back too desktop
which caused me too crash and i never had that before.
But i found this to be caused by the Vsync in Nvidia configuration screen, it was set too on
and i always had it off, this was happening after a new driver version installation.

Thanks for the info Peter but not the problem. Always had it. GPB closes the game window if I click on anything on another monitor too. It really bugs me is the only program that does it!!!

Would help if Pib would give some input here.

I can see all I have on the other screen vin but if I click on anything even just the desktop it closes the GPB fullscreen. This also is a bitch while live streaming as I cant use chat or anything

It is a BIG issue for me to be honest

oh ok but that's normal for fullscreen games, at least the ones I played.
borderless windowed mode is usually the way to go if you want to do that.

None of my other games close down!!! I mean ALL bike games, AC Pcars ete etc

Problem with streaming in windowed mode is it reduces quality for some reason?

I am just getting ready to start regular streaming and video uploads again as been busy sorting a lot out and want it to be the best I can to promote GPB right.
