Title: Switching out of Fullscreen Mode Post by: Charmy Renai on November 23, 2006, 10:07:58 am Is it possible to switch out of fullscreen mode into windowed mode? When searching online, the only information I have found is for using Command-H to hide Sims 2, but I would prefer to use windowed mode if that possibility exists. Thanks.

Quote from: Sims2 Read Me You can access a dialog box to set game resolution and access windowed mode by pressing and holding the Command key (⌘) when double-clicking the "The Sims 2" icon to launch the game. On a side note, it works for Body Shop too, while it's not documented: it will show a window in which you can choose to run BS in 1024x768 resolution instead of default 800x600. |
