Q:

Recently, I’ve been getting into streaming. I usually play games in windowed mode now so I can interact with the people who come into my channel and chat with them.

Whenever I select windowed mode, it seems to give me windowed mode in 1920×1080, which is my native resolution. Even if I select a different resolution in fullscreen mode first and then switch over to windowed mode, it’s still 1920×1080. I would like to run the window at 1280×720. That way, I can have my chat open in my browser and play the game simultaneously.

It’d be nice to be able to create a custom resolution. Thanks for you help!

Perhaps this belongs in the suggestions thread. A solution would be to purchase a second monitor and dual-screen. Or grab a laptop and watch the channel chat from the laptop.

Well, I wasn’t making a suggestion. :P I was asking if it were possible.

Unfortunately, the dual-screen thing won’t be happening for an undisclosed amount of time. I’ll only buy one if I truly need one (money doesn’t grow on trees xD) and my laptop is the only computer I have. :S

I guess, I’ll try finding an overlay program or something, unless someone has a solution, thanks.
