Summary

An attached play session will always force Windowed mode on

Please select what you are reporting on:

Unreal Editor for Fortnite

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

UI/Tools

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Launch an island in UEFN
  2. Launch a play session
  3. Observe the play session is set to use “Windowed” Window Mode under Settings > Video > Display
  4. Set it to “Fullscreen Windowed”
  5. Observe it defaults back to “Windowed”

Expected Result

Setting it to something persists.

Observed Result

It keeps resetting back to “Windowed”.

Platform(s)

Windows 10 PC

2

Noting - this makes it impossible to reasonably use the Game Performance tool, as my computer does not play nice with Windowed Mode and Fortnite. FPS drops galore.

3

Launching Fortnite directly (before UEFN) results in this issue not occurring. I can later connect it to UEFN and the issue still does not occur.
