Fullscreen does not work in window 8.1

[Sonicfans1]

Whenever I play Srb2 2.1, it automatically goes into windowed mode, no matter which exe I press. Please Help

Sometimes I have the same problem. Then I just wait 30 mins and try again. SRB2 net launcher has also helped me. Sometimes restarting computer is a good idea too.

It's quite strange. I find messing with the compatibility modes (switching on, then off of Windows 7 in compatibility mode) makes it fullscreen again. I suppose doing what Ors mentioned would work too.

Otherwise, this just seems to be a completely random thing Windows 8 likes to do for absolutely no reason.

Win8 deprecated DirectDraw. Most of the visual bugs specific to that platform are because of that.
