Fullscreen (Slash Command)
Slash Command
Sets video mode to fullscreen
0 = Disable fullscreen 1 = Enable fullscreen
- When the command is used without an argument, it returns the fullscreen state (whether it's in fullscreen or not).
- Although disabling fullscreen does select windowed mode in Options, it does not apply the setting to actually put the screen into windowed mode. To do that, you'll need to do 1 of 2 things:
- Use /fullscreen 0 and restart the game, or
- Avoid using the /fullscreen command and go to Options--> Graphics and Audio tab--> Screen/UI Resolution, select "Windowed", and click the Apply button at the bottom of the screen. The game does not need to be restarted if this method is used.
- This command may also be used as a launch parameter in the command line that launches the game
-fullscreen 1. Easiest method is to click on Settings in the game launcher--> Homecoming--> and type the command into the Extra Launch Parameters box.
Tip: Many graphics commands are not "applied" until the game is restarted. If switching between windowed and fullscreen modes, it's best to use the Options window to change these settings since the setting will usually take effect immediately upon clicking the "Apply" button. Also, to change the size of the game window while already in windowed mode, you may use the /screen command and it will take effect immediately. In addition, clicking the edge of the game window and dragging it across your screen will also resize the window. The new resolution numbers will be reported in the Graphics tab of the Options window. The /uiscale command can be used to immediately resize the user interface (all of the various windows within the game window) to better suit a new resolution. The /window_scale command can resize individual windows in real time. Lastly, the /fullscreen command also takes effect immediately, but it only works one way... from windowed mode to fullscreen mode. To go from fullscreen to windowed, use the Options window.
Command Line Parameter
The command can be run automatically at log-in as a Command Line Parameter. For example, -fullscreen.
