Hello,

  I just got the game tonight, finally got my account all set up and game downloaded and everything. It looks like a good game especially for free. I like the flying aspect, hope it is as good as flyff in that respect but anyways I can't play in full screen for some odd reason. Everything I go to full screen mode the game exits back to the desktop. In windowed mode it runs but the game is a little bit jerky, like most games are in windowed mode. I am unsure what is causing this. I have all my updated ATI drivers and got ap retty new monitor and stuff. All of ther 3D games work alright in full screen (such as Shaiya, Sword of the New World, Flyff) etc.. I have a lot of MMOs and still looking for one that fits my gaming needs. I was hoping perfect world would be good but I don't know if I could stand playing it in windowed mode.

 

Thanks,

Dustin

Did u tried to change the game resolution? Maybe that will work. Or try to close off the Widescreen option! Good luck!^^

Kill it Quick ~ Kill it Dead...

I agree..

Log into the game, create your character, and when you enter Perfect World - go to your lower right.

There will be icons and the you want is the one that looks like a hammer and screwdriver crossing (well I think that is what these images are).

Here there is an area for setting your screen size and such.  I did not click 'full screen' - rather I tried them all out - until I found one that worked.

Be sure to look around that area carefully, to set other items that affect how things display on your monitor.

Deb :)

Hello,

     I have tried several resolutions and different settings I even tried it with all the effects turned off and at 800  X 600. It is quite odd when I am in windowed mode it can run at any resolution though. I hav a widescreen monitor and  a decent 256MB ATI radeon card. I have tried everything. I am wondering if it isn't this modified windows theme I have that makes it look like vista. Anyways if anyone else has any suggestions taht would be good.

 

Thanks,

 

Dustin

Hello^^/

if nothing is working try this "ALT & ENTER"  it may sound silly but it might just work.

Reality is the popular perception. Imagination is creation.

Try this;

Right click on your exe shortcut you are using to launch the game.

Go to > properties.

Click on the > shortcut tab

Select the dropbox for the "Run" option.

Change the setting from "Normal Window" to "Maximized".

Cheers.
