I minimized (alt-tabbed) out of UT a while ago and now, when I open it again, it won't play full screen. If I alt-tab to it, it just goes away quickly after being on screen for a second. I've tried resetting the video driver; it does this only for DirectX9 (not the best but I like to use it so whatever). Is there any way I can fix this so it will run full-screen on that driver?

You could try to change your UnrealTournament.ini

[WinDrv.WindowsClient]
...
StartupFullscreen=True

Also look, if FullscreenViewportX and Y are valid numbers.

I fixed the problem. Sortof. Actually setting it to start windowed every time AND THEN maximizing it to full-screen gets rid of the problem, and it stays fullscreen. I'm afraid to change the .ini so that it's fullscreen all the time :lol:

But yeah. Anyone reading this who uses windows 7, if you've got UT minimized, DON'T exit out of it unless it's full-screen again before doing so. Thanks for the help!
