TGBX in windowed mode
by Eduardo Baiao · in Torque X 2D · 03/30/2007 (8:18 am) · 11 replies
Hi,
I'm playing with the last version of TorqueX (1.0.4.2) but it automatically runs on fullscreen mode.
My computer: AMD 64 - Radeon X1300.
When I alternate to another window and then try to come back to TGBX I get an error:
"Fatal ISV (..\..\source\dlg\gTextManager.cc @ 484)"
"Error ressurecting the texture cache. Possible cause: a bitmap was deleted during the course of the gameplay".
The same happens if I try to change to windowd mode clicking Alt+Enter.
Are there a way to start in windowed mode?
This is very strange. I tryed on another computer (PIII with old Nvidia) and there it works: TGBX starts in windowed mode.

1) Is your desktop running in 16bit or 32bit color?
16bit color will cause the editor to run in fullscreen.
2) What kind of video card are you running?

Some things to check:1) Is your desktop running in 16bit or 32bit color?
16bit color will cause the editor to run in fullscreen.
2) What kind of video card are you running?

Thanks for the reponse.
My card is using 32 bit color.
I don't know exactly what you mean by "kind of vide card", so:
ATI Radeon X1300, 512mb, Shader Model 3.

Hmm, that could be part of the problem. i had to uninstall win xp 64 due to all the incompatibilities.

I'm using XP 32bit and I get the same error on changing screen modes. It doesn't however start in fullscreen by default.
Another thing is it takes ages to load. On launching it shows a window saying 'loading common scripts' and stays there for ages before it finally loads up and runs. Is this 'normal'?

I can manage to adjust the resolution.
But I want a command to set the window to windowed mode

I just realized that if I use the command in the console (pressing ' on the keyboard). setres(1024, 768)
I can manage to adjust the resolution.

Make sure your desktop is running at 32-bit color depth, then use alt-enter to toggle fullscreen/widescreen.

I was having this problem earlier. I changed my desktop color depth to 16 then back to 32, alt-tabbed, crashed. Then restarted TXB, and it was clear sailing (TXB started in windowed mode). Make sure your desktop is running at 32-bit color depth, then use alt-enter to toggle fullscreen/widescreen.

Ugh.. I've had this problem too. I'm glad there's at least a workaround for now.Edit: I'm running on x64 too. :(
