Hi, I can compile and run my game on fulldesktop or windowed mode, but when I try and do it in fullscreen mode, it just says "application stopped working" and crashes...

Any ideas?

Are you taking focus away from the game? If you load media in fullscreen and then the game looses focus all of the media is flushed which can cause a crash...

If you are using the GDK to render the game and not DBPRO; then I must say that it gives me trouble aswell when setting fullscreen mode on; except that in my case it gives me a blank screen and does not allow me to exit, or close it or shut down windows.

What’s your best game moment?

Nothing fancy. Just hitting F5 in the compiler and it crashes right away...

I might just stick with FullDesktop if it has that focus problem though!

I would unless you start having speed issues. I had a few go's at reloading the media after one of my games lost focus and got very frustrated with it...
