Standalone window size stopped working in 4.12

Slavq · June 10, 2016, 2:49pm

In 4.11, after setting Standalone Window Size to 1920x1080, it plays in correct, desired HD resolution.

In 4.12, it ignores it when playing in ‘Standalone Game’ window (it opens is some other, smaller size). Only New Editor Window (PIE) respects the desired resolution.

Yes:

Yet it opens not in HD:

… But it works correctly in 4.11.

Hello,

Have you ensured to go into your editor preferences in 4.12 and set the Standalone Window size to the desired resolution?

I’m having this exact issue also, I’ve not tried it in previous versions however.

in 4.23 still same “DX12 -fullscreen command” error:

First, it uses your desktop resolution in “fullscreen” mode, with the game relegated to a portion of the screen. If you have a 4K display and set the game to fullscreen 1080p, you end up with the game occupying the top-left quadrant of the display. The solution is to drop the desktop resolution to 1080p before launching the game. And to reiterate, this does not happen in DX11 mode.
