Posted by Tacodonkey on 01/16/02 - 17:30:45

I'm getting an error message saying these exact words "Whatup? can't set to full screen mode" What's goin on? Any help is welcome. Thanks.

P.S.-sorry about that dink online thing..you don't have to kill me for having an idea.

The only reason it should say "can't set full screen mode" is if you have 640 * 480 resulution. If you restart it should go back to 680 * 800 or better. This is a bug with win98.

No idea, but the same message pops up when I ALT-F4 dink. Have you tried restarting.

And Dink Multiplayer is a very cool idea, but unless the engine is open sourced...

ya, I restarted and it went away. As for Dink Multiplayer, what do you mean by the engine being open sourced? Is there anything I can do?
