A little about how Kraft is arranged

To make some item you need to know the recipe for its manufacture. Recipes are studied in the Discovery section in inventory. There are four windows where objects are placed. Only highlighted objects can be put there. Illumination shows which items are compatible with each other. If the "Discovery" button does not become active - it means not everyone needs items to study the recipe are in the windows. Also under the windows are written a potential number of recipes, which can be explored with these things. To study recipes, it is not necessary to have the necessary number of items to create them. Enough on one instance of each subject. For example, to study a small bag (Satchel) you need to just study a piece of fabric (Scrap of Cloth), but to make it need 6 pieces of fabric.
Here there is a good.

First of all, you will need a bow.

Make it very simple. Open the inventory and tear (shred) on yourself T-shirt (there shouldn't be any items in T-shirt) and you get some pieces of fabric slices (SCRAP OF CLOTH), then break a few sticks (Wood Stick), just approach the bushes and click the "E ". I want to note that you need the sticks (Wood Stick), not the branches (Branch), which can be obtained by collecting the berry and use as batons. Now we have everything you need.
Open inventory, Discovery tab. Explore first sticks and rags together, then only sticks. You go to the crafting section and make yourself onions and arrows. Zombies are killed from such a bow with one shot in the head. Do not forget that by the key Q a character pushes zombock from myself.
Need to know that you can make a better wooden bow. (Wooden Bow), but threads (spool of twine) will be required for this. They can be found in the garbage containers near the houses. Obuka's recipe: 2 x Wood Sticks, 1 x Spool of Twine, 1 x Scrap of Cloth.

How to make a backpack:

  • Find 6 pieces of fabric (Scrap of Cloth, you can kill the zombiers and "chop" them with an ax / knife, and pieces of fabric will fall out) and make some of them a small bag (Satchel) with a capacity of 300;
  • Find a mount (CROWBAR) and by "beating" by it carcasses of machines produce metal garbage (Scrap Metal), from it make metal pieces (Metal Shard; you need to investigate the metal garbage twice for this), and from them nails (nails);
  • Then make out of 4 sticks (Wood Stick) and 4 nails (nails) frame for a backpack (Backpack Frame);
  • Then explore your rag handbag (Satchel) and a backpack frame (Backpack Frame), a recipe for a normal backpack is appearing at 1200.

How to ignite the fire, boil the water and all that.

First of all - collect blackberry (BlackBerry).
She is your best friend. She quenches a little thirst and hunger and there is a lot everywhere. And in the future it will be possible to make a useful Morse. I heard that the developers want to make so that after eating a large number of berries pierced the wildest diarrhea and the following weakening and dehydration behind him.
To make a fire, we need a pair of login (Wood Log), which are mined by cutting trees. So the ax is needed. If you can not find an ax, but you have a mount (Crowbar), then you can create a metal trash (Scrap Metal) by "beating" of broken machines and make from one wooden stick (Wood Stick) and one metal debris (Scrap Metal) (Makeshift Hatchet).
Of the two logs, we build a fire (sampfire, immediately there is in recipes). Now we need to regret it.
You can simply set fire to the fire with a fireman, which is given at the birth of a character (information is checked). Or lighter (Lighter), if you are lucky to find it. If nothing is it, then you will need a loaf drill (BOW DRILL). In general, a plank with a stick to mining the fire by friction. To make such a need:

  • 1 board (Wood Plank, it is easy to get a breakdown wooden box);
  • 1 piece of cloth (Scrap of Cloth);
  • 1 stick (Wood Stick).
Now simply use (Bow Drill) next to the bone and it lights up. We put meat into the fire (for the cutting of the carcas, it will take something acute type of ax or a knife) and a bottle with dirty water (Dirty Water) and after some time the meat will prepare, and the water will become suitable for drinking (Purified Water).
Also mixed clean water (BlackBerry) can be obtained by Blackberry Juice, which is better quenched by hunger and thirst than if you just drank water and fir the berries.
Water can be scored in empty bottles simply using them next to water sources (river, lake or well), as well as during the rain. To get water from the waterborg, it is necessary to put empty bottles there and they will slowly fill.

How to find out where you are

There you are .
The / Loc command in the chat (activated by the Enter key) gives your coordinates. We need only coordinates x and zbecause Y is a height. Do a couple of steps in different sidesWatch / Loc and find a direction in which you need to go (if you know the coordinates of another place).
If you ran out on the road and stumbled upon a road sign of type "25 North", then this means that you go on 25 highways in the northern direction.

Chat teams and emotions in the game

Using the F1-F11 keys, you can force your character to perform various actions of the type to wave with hand or all the famous "tea bag":

  • F1 - to wave a hand;
  • F2 - surrender, raise your hands up;
  • F3 - applause;
  • F4 - "We go with me";
  • F5 - "I kill you", the character seems to cut the opponent's throat;
  • F6 - "Tea bag";
  • F7 - laughter, lol;
  • F8 - I do not agree;
  • F9 - I agree;
  • F10 - to pant;
  • F11 - "Went!", U.
Commands in the chat (chat is activated by the Enter key):
  • / Friends - Commands to work with a list of friends. While it seems, does not work.
  • / Loc - get your coordinates
  • / Respawn - suicide.
And lastbill Alt + F output FPS on the screen.

How to change control and screen settings

In the game itself, you cannot change the control settings or turn on the window mode. But it can be done by changing the userOptions.ini and inputprofile_user.xml files.
To do this, you need to open the folder with the game where these files are lying. There are two ways:

  • C: \\ ProgramFiles \\ Steam \\ SteamApps \\ COMMON \\ H1Z1 \\;
  • Steam "E Open Game Properties - Local Data - Show Local Data.

ATTENTION:

be sure to save somewhere in the original files for recovery, if something goes wrong.

Now directly about how to change the mode with FullScreen "and on Windowed:

  • found the useroptions.ini file and opened it using a notepad or other text editor;
  • in the window that opens find
    FullScreenwidth \u003d 1920.
    FullScreenHeight \u003d 1080.
    Mode \u003d FullScreen.
    FullScreenMode \u003d FullScreen.
  • change
    Mode \u003d FullScreen on Mode \u003d windowedfullscreen
    FullScreenMode \u003d FullScreen on FullScreenMode \u003d Windowed.
  • then close the window and save the changes.
To change the control settings, you need to easily open the inputprofile_user.xml file, and to find the command you need and change or add a button through the search (Ctrl + F). Just copy the string with the command and replace the value of the button. You can see more detail about this on the video.

Afterword

If my guide seemed helpful you, please check the like and add to favorites. With the advent of new information about the game, the manual will be supplemented. Specify your questions in the comments or in the LAN. You can also add to the group in the VC in which I consists and ask your question there.

To force the Steam game to work according to certain rules and in accordance with specific parameters, you can set certain parameters of the launch. It is convenient to do this through the service game client - so the user can easily be able to configure specific parameters for each game separately.

How can I understand, the startup parameters are wagging on exactly how the game is running. This is very convenient first of all when problems arise, because of which the game crashes or does not want to start. In addition, the user will be able to specify one of the extended settings, which is not in the game settings menu, without manually editing the configuration file. And finally, you can get some additional features, such as the in-game console.


Now we will analyze what generals the teams can fit here.

Valve games

All games from Valve (Anthology Counter Strike., Dota 2, Series of Games Left 4 Dead, etc.) have and support a certain, almost the same set of parameters that can be set to any of them. Full list these games can be viewed in Store SteamBy choosing this developer, or simply by clicking on the link below.

The following parameters are available for them:

  • -Autoconfig - Reset schedules and performance settings to standard values \u200b\u200bsupported by your PC. If you change the CFG file manually, the game will ignore all settings;
  • -dev - Developer mode, disconnecting background autoloading cards and confirmation dialog out of the game;
  • -Condebug. - Enable the recording of commands entered in the console. Saving occurs in a text file "Console.log"which you will find in the local Steam folder;
  • -Console - launch the game with the developer's console;
  • -Dxlevel - The game will use the specific version of DirectX. Actually when using old video cards, where performance depends on the DirectX version. Some of their possible values: -Dxlevel 80., -Dxlevel 81., -Dxlevel 90., -Dxlevel 95., -Dxlevel 98..

    Please note that Valve games do not support DirectX 7 and below is fraught with flying games.

  • -FullScreen. - start the game in full screen mode;
  • -Windowed. or -sw. - launch the game in the window mode;
  • -16BPP or -32BPP - Starting a game with medium or high color depth. The parameter only works on the GOLDSOURCE engine;
  • -w. - launching a game with a resolution calculated according to a given width;
  • -h - Starting a game with a resolution calculated at a given height. It should be borne in mind that when the parameter is set -w. The height is calculated automatically, so it is not necessary to manually enter it, although often players are setting both of these parameters alone, for example, -W 800 -H 600;
  • -Refresh. - start the game with a certain update frequency;
  • -Heapsize - limiter of the amount of RAM (in kilobytes, taking into account that in one MB 1024 KB), which from now on, can use the game;
  • -Nocrashdialog. - Disable the output of some memory read error messages;
  • -Novid. or -Novideo. - Disable the Valve branded screen saver play when you start the game;
  • -lv - the inclusion of some parameters of the reduced cruelty mode in Left 4 Dead;
  • -sillygibs. - inclusion of reduced cruelty mode Team Fortress 2.

In addition, it is possible to set some parameters of graphics and detail in advance:

  • + R_ROOTLOD X. - change in the level of detailing models where X. may be 0 (tall), 1 (medium) or 2 (low);
  • + Mat_PicMip X. - change in the level of detail textures, where X. may be 0 (tall), 1 (medium) or 2 (low);
  • + Mat_Reducefillrate X. - change in the level of detailing shaders, where X. may be 0 (high) or 1 (low);
  • + R_WaterForceExpensive X. - change in the level of water detail, where X. may be 0 (low) or 1 (tall);
  • + R_WaterForceReflectIties X. - change in the level of detail reflection in water, where X. may be 0 (low) or 1 (tall);
  • + R_ShadowRendertotexture X. - change in the level of detailing of shadows, where X. may be 0 (low) or 1 (tall);
  • + Mat_ColorCorrection X. - change color correction mode, where X. may be 0 (off) or 1 (switched on);
  • + Mat_Trilinear 0. - the use of bilinear mode, which is less demanding of system resources;
  • + Mat_Trilinear 1. - use of a three-line mode, more demanding to system resources;
  • + Mat_Forceaniso X. - use of a three-line regime where X. may be 2, 4, 8 or 16. A higher level of filtering requires more system resources;
  • + Mat_HDR_Level X. - change in the level of an extended dynamic range of light effects, where X. may be 0 (disconnection, reduction of system resource requirements) or 2 (Full drawing, giving more load on the PC).

Other games

Many of the game from third-party developers have their launch parameters, and although the partially listed above will fit both to them, but still groups of commands will differ. Find them the easiest way through search engines. For example, it looks like.

Steam Client Startup Settings

In addition to games, you can assign startup parameters for both the client itself.


Now you know how you can apply startup settings to Steam games and use them to run games with specific commands.

Do not everyone know how to start the game in the window mode, however, most users occurred a similar idea. Sometimes because of the inconvenience in terms of switching between other programs, since each time turn one game every time to look into another place, it does not always have a positive effect on the nerves of the playing. Sometimes due to lack of opportunity in a particular game, make a screenshot using PRTSCRN and Paint, because some instead of a full-fledged image copy only black windows. Sometimes due to the small resolution of the screen provided for by the game, because of which it is necessary to look at a non-ideally clear image, provided that your monitor is much more. Sometimes because of others, more than good reasons. In any case, from the article you will learn how to run the game in the window mode, for whatever your goals you need this knowledge.

Method 1: key combination

The first thing you can try to do is to press Alt + Enter simultaneously. This is not only the easiest way, but also the most effective, since it is this way that you can switch most games to the regime you need. If you are tired of it, it is enough to press the above-mentioned key combination, and the full screen will return, and you can continue the game as before.

This method is comfortable and easy, for which it is appreciated by everyone who knows it. Another thing is that not all games support such a team. In this case, you can also try to press other keys that are similar to "Alt + Enter": F11 or Ctrl + F.

Method 2: Label Properties

This method is the most unreliable, since with many games (at least modern) it simply does not work. However, you still need to know "how." You can also start the game in the window mode using the addition to the game label, which in most cases is located on the desktop defined in the inscription. Most often "-Window" works. When it does not work, you can try to insert the command "-W" or "-win".

So, where and how to inscribe. We go to the desktop and click right-click on the label required gamesto go to "Properties". There we see a highlighted line called "Object", where the location of the game itself is shown and added "EXE" at the end. There we must prescribe our teams. At the very end, you put an additional space, then add "-Window" (without quotes, of course). Then click "OK" and open the game in the window mode, if it really affected.

Method 3: Settings

Since the window mode in games is interested in many users, the creators notice this, and therefore seeking to make conditions for their customers as comfortable as possible. In this case, you do not have to press the keys or change the properties of the shortcut. Sometimes it is enough just to go to the settings of the game and rummage in them in search of interesting things.

So, most often the screen settings are located in the section "Graphics" or "Video". It is there that you can see the inscriptions "full screen", "in the window", "window mode", etc. With the presence of a tick, which can be used and removed. Sometimes it is necessary to restart the game for the entry of new settings, consider it and try to change the settings not at the moment when you have an important missed mission on the horse.

Some games are offered to choose immediately when you start the game. However, if you wondered how "how to start the game in the window mode", it means that it is unlikely that you suggest that your toy offers.

Conclusion

Everything, now you know how to make the window mode of the game, and you can try to apply the information received in practice. However, I would like to remind you that some games "eat" more when they are running precisely in this mode, i.e. Full requires less power. If you understand that your computer does not pull the window mode, do not risk better. However, not all games react so much, but only some, so trying you simply obliged. Remember how to start the game in the window mode, because it can come in handy in the future, even if you are not an avid gamer.

Instruction

Try the easiest way to switch from full-screen mode to window - when the game is running, press the combination keys alt. + Enter. If it does not work, check if the manufacturer did not use other sufficiently common analogues of this command - the F11 key and the Ctrl + F combination for Windows or Command + M for MacOS.

Another way to do without manually editing the properties of the game is to use the switch to the window mode from the program settings. This option also is far from all games, but it is worth checking - in the menu of the running application, go to the Settings section and look for the WINDOWED MODE or similar to it. If this setting exists - check the checkbox and save the changes.

If you do not work out the control elements of the game itself, try the appropriate modifier to add to the program string. To do this, right-click its label on the desktop and select the "Properties" string in the context menu. If you use the item in the OS Main Menu, then you do the same with the line in the menu. As a result, the window appears on the screen with the selected line in the Object field.

Go to the end of this string (key End) and add a -Window modifier via space. Then click OK and run the application. This method allows the Counter Strike, Warcraft, Mass Effect. et al. If in your game it does not work, try changing the modifier - for example, the window mode in SIMS 2 by adding -W, and besides this option is it possible.

This option can be enabled through the settings file, if, of course, it is provided by the manufacturer. To find out, go to the game folder and look for FullScreen or Windowed text in the files. In Windows 7, this can be done using the search box in the upper right corner of the "Explorer" window, if you click the "Content File" icon after entering the text. Installing FullScreen in the settings file you need to turn off, i.e. Assign it a value of 0, and Windowed - enable, i.e. Assign 1.

note

A computer game is not necessarily closed to switch to another program. It can be folded and at the same time open the window of another running application by pressing the ALT + TAB key combination - this allows you to solve the task without starting the game in the window mode.

The window mode of the game is a common output from the situation in which I really want to brighten your free time with a computer game, but at the same time you need to track what is happening in the mail client or on the desktop, and also be able to quickly carry a window with the game in the tray - for example, if you Suddenly will enter the boss. Here are some ways to easily start the window mode in any computer game.

Instruction

Most games are moving to the window mode in response to a combination of the Alt + Enter keys. Try pressing these keys during the game - if it is in the window mode, it means that this method suits you.

If your game does not support this key combination, use the other method. Find on the working label of your game, and if it is not there - create it. Click on the label right-click, call the context menu and select "Properties. A window will open with the label properties.

You will see the row in which the path to the game is specified. Add the word "-Window. Click OK and try to start the game from this label. If everything is done correctly, it will start in the window mode, but for this you need to use only a changed shortcut. If you no longer need a window mode, rewrite the prefix to the address in the properties of the label to "-full screen.

In addition, consider detail the settings for your game after launch - in many modern gamesah has a function of exiting a full-screen mode in the menu.

If no method brought the result, which is unlikely, visit the developer forum or game fans, and ask there the right question.

note

Remember that, despite the low percentage of such games, there are nevertheless developments that do not provide for work in the window mode. They can react to your attempt to minimize the game in the window, but if the game has not been tested in this mode, it may be problems in its work.

IN lately There is a big abundance of simple games that are called logical. The presence of such a game on a computer office person says that he sometimes wants to relax. That's just not every chief of the organization in which this employee works, accept the launch of games during the workflow. To hide the running game on time from the chief in time, you can use the ALT + TAB key combination, but, as a rule, in this way the application cannot quickly curl. In search of a specific solution to this task, the following way to launch the game in the window mode was created.

You will need

  • Editing game settings.

Instruction

Of course, the fact of using games during the workflow, especially when you get the chief, not the most pleasant. It may happen that important people come to work from the regional city or from the capital, which can significantly "subscribe" your reputation.

If you understand a little in the game settings, you can window mode launched game. For this, it is enough after it starts to enter the settings that are located in the main menu of the running. If your game is not, try in the settings options in which the following words can meet: Window, Full Screen. Once you have found such elements, try to activate them. Some games require restart to see the changes made to the settings.

There are games, there are no references to the window in the settings. In this case, you will need to find the label of your game. If it is not on the desktop, it can be found in the installed programs that are located in the "Start" menu. Right-click on the game shortcut, select "Properties" in the menu that opens. In opening, pay attention to the file run path, it may be: "C: Program FilesrockStargrand Theft AUTO. 3gta3.exe.

At the end of this line, you must add the "-Window" parameter. As a result, we will get the following line: "C: Program FilesrockStargrand Theft AUTO 3GTA3.EXE" -Window. After clicking on the "OK" button, open the game - it should start in the window mode.

There are a number of games that, after this conversion, stop running in full screen mode. Replace the "-Window" value at the end of the string on "-full screen".

Many applications can work in several window modes. This includes a compact window mode with support for changing the size of the window, the mode to the entire screen and full screen mode. As a rule, watch movies and play games more conveniently in full screen mode, work with documents - in full screen mode, and small applications are more convenient to run in the window mode with the ability to change the size of the window. The transition from one type of display of the program interface to another differs in different types of applications.

You will need

  • Computer running the operating system

Instruction

To go to window mode in the game application you need to visit the game settings. In the graphics settings, find the "Display in the window" or "window mode" item. This ability is not all games. The transition from the window is most often carried out by the ESC key.

To enter the window mode from when in the multimedia player, you must press the desired key combination (most often this or ENTER, or CTRL + ENTER, or ALT + ENTER, or CTRL + F). You can change this combination of keys in the player settings. To do this, in the menu item "Settings" - "Configuration" - "Keyboard" Lay the function "Fullscreen Mode" and change the key combination on a convenient for you, do it so that your combination does not repeat with already existing.

For everyday applications, the most common modes are the mode of all screen and window mode with the possibility of adjusting the window size. To go from the mode to mode, the button in the right corner of the window is the middle of the three (two others - this is "Collapse the window" and "Close the window"). Switch the application to window mode by pressing this button and adjust the window dimensions. To do this, move the mouse pointer to the right border of the window and change the width, and to change the height, similarly "pull" for the bottom edge of the window.

If you often use any program or file, you can configure the window mode to continuously start these objects. To enable and select the window mode for the application, games or any file, create (if you do not have it) launch the label of this object on the desktop. Right-click on the program or file label and select "Properties".

Click the Window tab. At the bottom of the dialog box, find the option of selecting the "Window" values. Set the desired window size - "normal size", "folded to the icon" or "deployed to the full screen". Confirm the changes by pressing the "Apply" button. Now, when you start using a shortcut, the window will open only the selected size.

Many applications are arranged in such a way that they can work in several window modes. This mode is full screen, full-screen mode and mode with the change in the change of the window dimensions. Each of them is designed to facilitate the use of a particular application. Films, for example, it is better to look in full screen mode, working with text documents is more convenient in full screen mode. As for small applications, the most optimal option is to work in mode with a change in window size.

Instruction

Visit the game settings. You will need it to go mode. Go to graphics settings. Locate the "window mode" or "display in the window". If you play the game in the Internet application to exit to the window, press the ESC button. If you are on the contrary, you want to start the application B, in the lower right corner of the application to find the icon with arrows directed diagonally in opposite sides.

Press the Alt + Enter or Ctrl + Enter key combination to go to when viewing in a multimedia player. If this shortcut of the keys for you for some reason is not the most convenient, you can change it in the player settings. Go to "Settings", then "Configuration" and select "Keyboard". Find the mode function and change the shortcut of the keys to the one that suits you more, but this combination should not be repeated with others that provoke shutdown or launching other player functions.

To go into mode with the possibility of adjusting the size of the window, press the button the button shown in the form of a square in the upper right corner. This method is applicable to everyday applications, such as text editors, office programs, etc. After this action you can adjust the window size. To do this, hover the mouse over one of the corners of the application window. You will see how your cursor from the usual arrow will be transformed into a double-sided, aimed at the diagonal.

Hold the cursor on the window corner and pull it into one direction or another depending on whether you want to increase the size of the window or decrease. To save these sizes, set them in the application startup window. To do this, right-click on the application label and go to the "Window" tab. In the field that appears, install the desired dimensions.

Computers sometimes behave suchly that the user can not do anything about it. One of the most common examples is the habit of running one or another game exclusively in the window mode, which causes a lot of problems.

Instruction

Check out "". To do this, right-click on the label that runs the program, and select "Properties". There you will see a string of type: "Object: D: Gameshommh3Blade.exe -Windowed". This is the address of the file to which the label refers. Pay attention to the "-Windowed" prescription at the end - if there is something available, it is because of it your game is in. Boldly delete the specified parameter and start the shortcut without it, the problem in 90% of cases will be solved.

Try hot keys. Of course, hotkeys may be individual for each game, but the most common combination: Alt + Enter, which should deploy the game immediately after pressing. Try not to switch directly during the game, go out for this to the main menu or, at least, put a pause - so you protect yourself from departures to the system and bugs. If the above combination is not suitable, try searching for other options in the descriptions of the game.

Change the screen resolution. Technically, this will not be a "full-screen launch", but practically the game window will unfold on the entire screen and will ensure at least some comfort. You will need to compare the resolution of the game and the monitor: to increase the values \u200b\u200bof one or reduce the other (if the monitor is set to 1024x768, then in the game options you should put the same value).

Use the game settings. Of course, this is the most obvious decision, but sometimes users forget about it. Go to the "Settings" menu in the game and check that in front of the "Starting mode" item did not have the included "checkbox" or "checkbox". If there is no such item in the options, check the presence of the settings menu in the "Launcher" is a program that can be found in the root directory of the game. It regulates the possible settings before starting the game. Very often with the problem of the window mode, the inattentive users of the games on the Source engine are facing, in many of which this mode is set by default, but it is easy to turn off through the menu.

Go to the window to start the game application is usually required due to a small maximum screen resolution of many old games. Another reason can be the reluctance to demonstrate the employment to the game to all others. Be that as it may, there is a solution to the problem.

You will need

Sometimes the user needs to run a favorite window in the window mode and there are many reasons for this: from simple convenience associated with high screen resolution, before hiding the game from the bosses, if his representative accidentally goes to the office. Methods of performing this operation set.

You will need

  • Computer game.

Instruction

The easiest and most affordable way is to press the Alt + Enter key combination. In most Windows platform applications, this command is applied to change the display mode. But in terms of games, this method is not the most effective, therefore, most likely, he will not suit you.

Also, the window mode can be set using software tools for the game itself. How to do it? This setting is usually located in the game menu, "Setting" section (Options). Because There are a large number of games, this option is called differently: "Window mode", "Play in the window", FullScreen Mode, etc. After closing the settings menu, the game window will automatically change in size.

Next, you can use the options for changing the data of the triggered file, to be more accurate - changes in the game startup settings. If with the executable file to supplement it with the window window, there is a possibility of displaying the window mode. Right-click on the game label and select "Properties".

In the window that opens, go to the floor "Object" and add the "-Window" statement without quotes. For example, in initially we have a type of type "C: Program Filesalawar.ru", after changing it, it will look like this: "C: Program Filesalawar.ru The waist bubblesbybubbles.exe" -Window. To restore the full-screen game mode, it is enough to remove the added operator or replace it with "-full screen" without quotes.

If all the ways, one way or another, did not cope with the specified task, it is recommended to refer to the original source - the developer of this game complex. On the official website or forum, you can ask such a question or using the search to find an answer. But not all games support the window mode, so you may encounter such a situation.

Most programs can work in two modes: in full screen and in the window. Changing the mode is caused by the character of the tasks being performed: it is better to work with graphics to work in full screen, while the office applications have enough window mode.

Instruction

The easiest way to change the window mode is to press the CTRL + ENTER key combination. Most often this method is applied in standard window applications, as well as in video player (KMPlayer, Media Player Classic, etc.). Pressing these keys Returns the program window to its original position.

Another, no less simple, the way is to press the special window title buttons. Look at the window of your online browser, and on the right side of the window header you will see three small buttons. The average button is an element of managing open windows, press it to change the window of the window.

Because Any operating system from the Windows family is constructed in such a way that a certain operation can be performed in several ways, therefore, there are several other options for controlling the window mode. Right-click on the window header and select "Expand / Restore" (depending on the task).

For any application there are a number of hot keys and their combinations to make navigation without using a computer mouse. To do this, set the focus on the desired window using the Alt + Tab keys. Press the Alt + Space keys and select Expand / Restore.

All of the above methods are not always comfortable and work correctly. For example, if you want to set the window mode only for one program, it is recommended to assign this option in the program settings. By default, for most programs, the "Settings" element is located in one of the top menu. Often they are called the Ctrl + P key combination, this rule only works for utilities that do not output information on printing, because For text and graphic editors, these keys indicate the printing of the document.

Many programs are able to work in several modes: full-screen and window. To work simultaneously with multiple applications, it is best to run them in the window mode to speed up the transition from one to another.

Instruction

Open the application and look at the top right corner of the screen. There you will see three buttons. If you press the edge right button on which the cross is drawn, the program closes. If you click on the extreme on the left, which shows (), then you will drive the program.

To run the program in the window mode, click on the button that is in the middle. It depicts two rectangles (one little behind the other). The program from the mode will switch to the window mode. Then, to adjust the sizes of the window, hover the mouse over some of its corners, clamp and pull in one direction or another. This method to translate the program in the window mode is suitable for all types of applications.

Use different keyboard shortcuts to run the program in the window mode. It can be Alt + Tab, Ctrl + Enter, ATLT + SHIFT and others. It all depends on the application settings. Open the settings of the program you use, view the installed combinations of hot keys.

If the set combination does not suit you, you can replace it with another. The main thing is that on the same combination there was no other action. If necessary, drag the combinations in such a way that they do not coincide.

Correct the program settings to start in the window mode. To do this, run the application you want to adjust, go to its settings and find the startup parameters.

If there is a tick in front of the "Run full screen" item (Opening in FullScreen Mode), remove it and confirm the changes. Or install the checkbox opposite the "Run in the window mode" item (Opening in Screen Mode). Confirm the changes and restart the program to ensure that the settings entered into force.

In some cases, it is convenient to run the game in the window mode. For example, if you want to quickly switch between windows or play old games, most of which do not support a large resolution of modern monitors. To go to the window mode, there are several ways to go to the Windows operating system.

Instruction

Before trying various methods Starting the window mode Check if there is a similar setting in the game. To do this, run the game and go to the "Settings" menu. Select "Video" and find the appropriate feature. If it is absent, you can try other options.

Run the game. After it is completely loaded, press the ALT and ENTER key simultaneously. As a rule, many games after that go into window mode. If this method does not help, it will be necessary to try out more complex options.

Find your game label on your desktop. If it is not, then open the folder with the game and locate the file to start it. Hold it right mouse and drag onto your desktop. A menu appears in which you want to select the "Create Label" command. You can also simply click on the right mouse to the file and select the "Create Label" item, then transfer it to the desired location.

Call the "Properties" menu for the game label. Find the object "Object" in which the path to the game is specified, select it and add it at the end of the window. For example, it was: C: / Games / Counter-Strike 1.6 Condition-zero / hl.exe, and will be: C: / Games / Counter-Strike 1.6 Condition-Zero / HL.exe - Window.

Save the settings and run the game from the shortcut. If you want to start the game on, simply delete the recorded record. In some cases, the launch will still take place in the window mode in order to fix it in the end - Full Screen instead -window.

The usual work experience on the computer involves the use of several programs at the same time. They are opened in the window mode, with one to another then go is not labor. But gaming applications More often start immediately in full screen mode, which does not allow working in parallel with other windows. The fans of old games are also uncomfortable full-screen version, with low resolution everything looks ugly, odorless. It is inconvenient to make screenshots if you leave the application, then you need to re-wait for the download, time is lost. Therefore, users are desirable to put the window mode in games, for which there are different ways.

To start the game in the window there are several ways

1. Keyboard shortcut

Solve the problem, how to translate the game in the window mode, help the combinations of certain keys. The simplest reception when the application is started in full-screen form, press Alt + Enter. You can click on Windows F11 or Ctrl + F, in MacOS Command + M. Perhaps in the settings you will find other combinations for your application. Method is light, efficient, because repeated keystrokes will open back full screen mode.


The first and easiest way to use a shortcut

2. Changing settings

Perhaps in the settings there is a transition option to another mode, check. Go to the Settings section (Options), view them, whether "WINDOWED MODE) is available or a similar function:" Play in the window "," window mode ", other analogues. When you find, select, checking the checkbox or by activating the program provided by the program, save the change.

3. Application of modifier

If there is no screen deployment option, add it through a special modifier.

  • Click on the launch launch with the right mouse button, click on the "Properties". You can also call the Properties window in the main menu of your OS.
  • Go to the object "Object", at the end of the string (key END).
  • Put the space, enter "-Window".
  • Click Apply - OK, Run the application.

In this way, it is edited by launching different toys, such as popular Warcraft, Counter Strike, Mass Effect. In other programs, a slightly different modifier can be used, in Sims2, for example, you need to attribute "-W", "-win" works in some applications. Try at your own variants of the modifier.

The game will be possible to run in the window version, to return to the old settings, simply delete the inscribed modifier.

Push the -Window modifier in the label properties

4. File settings

If the manufacturer includes such an option, follows as follows:

  • Go to the folder of the installed program.
  • Find the files in the files "Windowed", "FullScreen" (if you have Windows 7, in the explorer in the search window, enter the text on the right in the corner click on the "file content").
  • For FullScreen to disable, set the value 0. For Windowed, set the value 1, turning it on. You can now start the application.

5. Third-party programs

Above these methods are applicable if such capabilities are laid in the settings. How to start any game in the window mode when the manufacturers did not provide for this? Assist third-party programs.

Forced to translate into the desired launch option in games, by taking the old Chinese program D3DWindower, it copes with such a task, although quite old. Install it, run, add your game to the list by clicking on the "plus". In the settings, place the desired height, the width of the window.

6. Emulators

Emulators do not work on all computers, they are demanding of resources. Download, Run the emulator (VMware, Windows Virtual PC). We recommend using official sites. You create a virtual "computer in a computer", operating in the usual window size, and any program running it will turn out to be within the emulator window.

The disadvantages are that the virtual computer requires a large disk space, configure it for a long time, laborious. Install the emulator, only to start the game, is irrational, use the way if it is necessary for work.

If the listed methods showing how to put the game in the window mode, did not help, try to contact developers through the official website, support forum. In addition, when there is no this option, in principle, we recommend mining a full-screen application to switch to a different program by pressing Alt + Tab, then you can simply deploy it.

How to start the game in the window mode

Window mode - best conspiracy. Why play the window mode? It is from him that it is easiest to switch to another window when the head, wife, parents or a cat, who is very against your pastime, suddenly entered the room. And seriously, this question may be relevant to the fans of old games. As a rule, such games have a very low resolution and when deployed to the whole screen look awful. In addition, the window mode is convenient to switch to other tabs, allowing you to instantly return to the game, without a long expectation of "loading" textures, locations and so on.

But how to start the game in the window mode? Fullscreen mode in some games can be disabled in the graphics settings of the game itself, with others you will need to apply a couple of tricks. In this article we will tell about all known ways.

In the game, press the ALT + ENTER buttons. This is a classic combination that triggers in a variety of full-screen applications and translates the game to the window mode.

Some games use other hotkeys that can be found from the control settings menu.

Using the "-Window Property"

If the game does not respond to hotkeys - you should try to perform the following steps:

  1. Save the changes and enter the game.

If it did not work, try instead of "-window" to introduce "-W".

With this property, the start of the game with this icon will be made in the window mode. To open the game to full ScreenYou will need to simply delete the inscribed condition.

Some games support the transition to the window mode through the settings menu - it is only worth putting a tick in the graphic settings menu, and the game will open in the window.

Using third-party programs

The most common program for forced translation of the game in the window mode is Chinese D3DWindower, quite old, but working.

In order to play in the window with its help, you must:

  1. Download the program here, install it and run.
  2. Press the "plus" and select a file with the game - it will appear in the program list.
  3. Select the game and click on the closed folder icon - the settings window will open, where in the first tab it will be necessary:
    • set the desired width and height of the window - in the first two input fields, respectively;
    • make sure that the tick is right from them;
    • press the button on the right at the bottom of the window, then select from the folder with the D3DHOOK.DLL program;
    • save settings and click on the third right button in the main program menu.

If everything is done correctly, the program must open the game in the window mode.

ATTENTION: On the way to D3DWindower should not be kirillic characters!

If this program does not help you, you can try to use system emulators, but this method is very demanding to computer resources and is not suitable.

In order to run the game via the system emulator, you can use Windows Virtual PC or VMware, which can be downloaded from the links from official sites. Such programs create the so-called virtual machine - "Computer on a computer" and usually work in the window mode, because any game running in this way will be located in the emulator program window. This method requires a long setting, and the virtual machine takes a rather much space on the hard disk, so we recommend using this method only if you work with it. Set the emulator only to start the game in the window mode - too much time and long.

However, if you still decided to try, then you will need the installation image of the OS, the best, Windows, since it is compatible with most games, the emulator distribution, time and patience. You will need to perform the following actions:

  1. Install one of the above programs and run it.
  2. Following the instructions, specify the program path to the image of the setting disk from the OS, set the amount of the virtual machine of the disk space (as a rule, for the correct operation of the emulator there is enough 20 GB of free space, but in our case everything will depend on the size of the game you want in it Run).
  3. Wait for the installation of the OS, complete it, following the instructions of the installation program.
  4. Reload the virtual machine.
  5. Install on it game and all the necessary additional software (Visual C ++, DirectX, etc.).
  6. Start and hope that your computer will have enough performance.

It is worth remembering that the game in the window mode, especially using third-party software (especially through the virtual machine), requires more resources, and therefore can slow down, hob and work incorrectly, especially if you play on weak computer Or parallel a large number of other programs started.

Now you know how to run the game in the window mode by universal ways. They work with most games, but if the listed actions did not help you - try to look for a solution in other articles on our website.

How to start the game in the window?

Many of us sometimes want to remember the past and play classic computer applications. At the same time, the question often arises how to start the game in the window.

Unfortunately, most of the old applications are not easy to force to work correctly on modern PCs equipped with Windows 7 operating system or later software from Microsoft.

For example, the screen resolution can be 640 × 480 or even less. On modern HD monitors, such a resolution looks, to put it mildly, terrible.

  • 1 Setting the screen mode
  • 2 Emulators

Setting screen screen

To solve the problem, you need to start the application in the window mode. Some games offer the user built-in feature to start the application in the window. But how to deal with programs whose developers did not provide for such an opportunity?

There are several options for solving the problem that will help run in the window mode not only old, but also new applications.

First of all, you need to try to hold the ALT and ENTER key combination on the keyboard, while the program is running in full screen mode. This is the easiest way to solve the problem. As a result, some games can automatically go to window mode, but not all.

Many applications can be switched to window mode using internal settings.

In any game there is a starting menu, where the "Settings" or "options" item is necessarily present. There is usually sub-clause "Video Settings" or "Graphics Settings", in which application developers often provide for the function of disconnecting a full-screen mode. For example, in game dota. 2 This feature is located in the video / audio subparagraph.

Some programs contain files with extension.ini, in which you can configure the game before it starts. If you are lucky, then the launch options may also be a game mode in the window. Files.ini are usually located in the root folder with the game (it is in that place on the hard disk of the computer where the application was installed).

Another possible Solution Problems is to register certain commands in the program shortcut.

To do this, click on the right mouse button on the icon that runs any game, and try to add one of the following commands in the Object field:

  • -Window;
  • -WindowMode;
  • -F resolution;
  • -F 1024 × 768.

Editing the properties of the shortcut can lead to a program malfunction.

You do not need to delete everything that is written in the "Object" string by default. Just add the command to what already exists. In addition, to change the label, you may need administrator rights. If there are no such rights, you should contact the owner of this PC.

Emulators

There are special emulators programs that allow you to run games for Windows on the Apple Mac platform (including in the window mode). Not all applications are successfully transferred from one platform to another, while maintaining performance, but it is worth trying. The most popular today emulators are DirectX OpenGL Wrapper, DXWND and Glide.

If there was a desire to start a very old toy running under the DOS operating system, it is best to use the DOSBOX emulator. This program is quite simple to use and allows you to start the game in the window mode. Just run emulator to see detailed instructions By emulation games.

The owners of the Windows 7 operating system can also try Windows XP MODE - the official utility from Microsoft, which allows not only emulating XP, but also to run the game in the window. Alternative emulators can serve as VMware or VirtualBox.

They are able to emulate various oS And display the game in the window mode. Accordingly, all programs running through these emulators will also start in the window.

It is there that you can see the inscriptions "full screen", "in the window", "window mode", etc. With the presence of a tick, which can be used and removed.
