Q:

Hi guys and hopefully ANet (<3)
I’d love to be able to run GW2 in Windowed Fullscreen on my iMac as I use my iPad as a 2nd display and would like to use it for displaying TS and what not. I think this would really improve my PvP performance and my gaming experience in general.

As Windowed Fullscreen is already an option in the Windows client I hope it will be possible to implement for us on OSX.

Best regards

I’m pretty sure the option is there in the exact same place it is on the windows client.

No it does not exist and its funny that you continue to linger around these Forums for Mac Flamingfoxx yet you don’t even know what the client consists of (please just leave). We will not see this come in to fruition until a native client comes in to play. Which will probably most likely never happen judging from the complete and udder lack of support mac users have in general by ArenaNet.

hey,

There is no dedicated windowed full screen or fake fullscreen option in the settings. The only thing you can do is tick the window box and then go to window -> full screen on the menu bar on top.

Doesn’t improve fps for me though but it might do the trick for the second monitor? The window option box stays selected after switching to fullscreen again like this.

If I get it right though, this would mean that it is a real fullscreen on mac os side with a windowed screen on the client side but the mac os x settings override the wrapper?

let me know

cheers

Real nice suggestion, Michael
Unfortunately it does not work though.
Let’s hope ANet looks into this.

Hey NSKL,

Thanks for bumping this post. I will put this on my list of things y’all would like to see included in a future update and get it passed on to the development team.
