CW 1.08c on Mac -- Fullscreen problems

subcritical · 10-09-17, 06:13 AM

5120-by-2880. If I select 2560x1440 those borders go away. In game it is no issue.

The borders are also not always white as in the video. When issue 2 and 4 crop up they turn red. BTW, issue 2 and 4 popped up again. I don't have time to get a video of it now, but later today i'll create one and post it.

Ok, found some time this morning. Here is the video;
.

It appears the borders are going away after I select 2560x1440, but on a restart the border reappears, although it is about 1/3 the size of the border at full resolution. In the video I went to the video selection and simply hit Apply and the borders went away.

While screen recording I was not able to show the desktop switcher, but when my screen goes to the blank desktop, this is the behavior that requires a Command-Tab to get back to Cold Waters.

Edit: Fixed link

If you open options.txt, what is the screen resolution?
If it is not 5120x2880, change it to that and see if it now always defaults to your native resolution on start up.

hmmm.. I can't seem to find an options.txt file. Is it supposed to be in the 'default' folder under 'streaming assets'?

In Windows it's in the User's AppData. Have no idea where Linux would put it.

Suggest you use the Terminal and some kind of command like "find" or "whereis" to bypass the limitations of the desktop GUI.
If you are using a Windows emulator: open CMD in administrator mode "dir drive\path\filename"

I've already used finder to do the search with no hits. But you are correct. Since apps are seen as packages in finder I probably need to run the find command in terminal to get a more complete search.

Found it! (/Users/john/Library/Application Support/unity.Killerfish Games.Cold Waters/options.txt). Though the resolution was already listed correctly.

The borders are really not that big of deal to me. One interesting note. When the borders appear after in campaign mode, the campaign map shows up in the white zones on the left and right of the screen (instead of the white).
