Full screen, of course. Hold Alt Gr and then press Enter to get cool mystical screen, in my comp, it get's best resolution.

Window. The game looks much better in a window. And it makes it easier to semi-idle, you can still do other stuff while playing.

Fullscreen, nothing must distract me from the JJ2 experience. Besides, I have poor eyesight.

Mostly fullscreen, although I have higher fps at window (70 ;D)

17'' and 640×480 is too much. So, window.

Fullscreen for JDC events, window for most everything else.

Depends... Windowed if I have MSN running, Full Screen otherwise.

Window. For many reasons listed above. (Like doing stuff while playing) And windowed is just less laggy. ;P (Unless it's probably my 3D card that makes jj2 slower and have low fps.) But still.

Window. Always window. I usually have like 5 other proggies open when I run JJ2 so I can semi-idle, and even if I dont, window.

When playing Single-Player or Multiplayer (Join Game), I play Full-Screen.
When hosting, I usually play in a Window so I can use trainers.

window runs too slow for me. I run fullscreen. Bigger screen, less color bleeding, less pixelization, and faster speed.

Anyone else have that kind of problem?

buddy, I was here before you. Like almost two years before you. I just never posted much. My interest in Jazz Jackrabbit goes off and on. Right now, I'm interested in it. Sadly though, I didn't even play jazz jackrabbit 2 until two years ago which was the shareware/demo. But yet I had been playing/knew about jazz jackrabbit 1 (shareware) since 1995 and have been playing the cd full version since 1999!

Full Screen. But I tend to accidentally switch to windowed mode when pressing both jump (Alt) and weapon switch (Enter) at the same time :p I'm not used to other buttons, and I don't use the number keys all that often either...

Windowed. But I want to find out how BlurredD gets a larger res so I can play Jj2 Fullscreen in 800x600. My 19" monitor makes jazz in 640x480 look the size of a shredded wheat square, in contrast to the size of a mexican green olive stuffed with anchovies.

Yes, I'm wondering the same thing. Infact, those two screenshots he has are 1024 x 768! In JJ2, it only lets me go up to 640 x 480 on both this computer and my laptop: my desktop computer uses DirectX 9 and my laptop uses DirectX 8.

Wow, people play fullscreen more than I would have thought.

FoxBlitzz

I play full-screen for Single Player and when I join a server in multiplayer because not only is the screen bigger, but I get a better FPS (70 out of 70), but in a window, due to refresh rate settings, only runs at 60 out of 70. I like 60 better, it's just that JJ2 was designed for 70 hz.

R3ptile
Aug 7, 2004, 11:13 PM
Is it possible to get 70 fps with fullscreen? How? o.O

Edit: I changed my screen's refresh rate and now I get 70 FPS with or without fullscreen 8D 8D 8D Yayyyy...

Fullscreen when I'm doing something important like training or clanwar... Windowed when I'm not...

FoxBlitzz

Aah! If you look closely in BlurredD's second screenshot, he has 6 hearts! How did he manage to do that? O.o

blurredd
Aug 8, 2004, 09:31 AM
With Death Controller to prevent any more roasts from anyone. I was using it at the end of a Timed All You Can Roast game during a JDC event.

FoxBlitzz
Aug 8, 2004, 10:13 AM
Okay, that's understandable. But I'd still like to know how you set JJ2 to 1024 x 768?

Ever heard of Blur's very own program which he won't distribute?

Clam pagged.

blurredd
Aug 8, 2004, 11:17 AM
I couldn't make a program if I tried.

Odin
Aug 8, 2004, 12:17 PM
I looked around and poked a little, and I think you have to fool around in Regedit. All I need now is the algorithm for the screen size so I don't mess up and get a messed up res like 543x758, for instance. I don't like fooling around in code I know nothing about. I hope Blur can PM me the algorithm.

I'm playing with full screen, of course! Sometimes with window screen..:)

Fullscreen, despite of everything. My 17' flat monitor streches the image very much, and JJ2 looks quite awful that way. No panic, that's no reason to call emergency number. The problem is that with my desktop resolution 1280*1024 the windowed mode of 640*480 pixels looks also quite distrupting.

Good, Blade. I wish you would be more active nowadays with this jj2-stuff. I haven't seen you for a long time here at jj2-community.

Btw, I play with Fullscreen also. It is just annoying when I press ALT+ENTER during a match. It generates lag and I get a black screen for a while.

It's kinda huge on a 19" Flat Fullscreen@640x480 so I use windowed. It allows me to do more stuff at a time :p

I can't even play anymore. I'm wicked sad about the fact that I don't have Jackrabbit on my laptop at school.
