Life is Strange Fullscreen Problem
Purple Pudding Jul 21, 2016
I just downloaded episode one of "Life is Strange", ported by Feral... thanks for the article Liam!

The problem is that fullscreen don't work: if I select "fullscreen" from the Feral starting dialog the game doesn't start, I only get a black screen (but I can alt+f4).

If I select "windowed" from the same dialog the game starts with no problem, but if I go to the settings of the game and select "fullscreen" from here the game go to fullscreen but the mouse and the audio stop working (so I have to alt+f4 the game again for exit it seems...)

There's a way to get the game working on fullscreen?

Many thanks!

Same issue here, Arch Linux w/ Nvidia 367.35.

I have the exact same issue with Company of Heroes 2 with the latest patch. Please make sure you email [email protected] with your full setup and the issue.

I've found a workaround in the comments of the post.... here

Also, in another comment on that post I saw that if you launch the game fullscreen and the problem appears, you can simply alt+tab and choose another program, then return to the game.

For me, fullscreen does work (GTX 1070, 367.35 on Antergos) but I get absolutely horrendous FPS lag.

On Manjaro everything is working fine with my GTX 980, Drivers 367.35 @ 2560x1440 - High Details getting around 60-70 FPS

Have in mind that I am using the latest Beta Steam Client as well

Quoting: GuestIt worked for me perfectly on Ubuntu, but the problem where you have to alt+tab is there in Mint and Ubuntu Mate. With all three distros I had the same hardware, same kernel and same graphics driver.

Different window managers which have some strange bugs. I'd make sure you email Feral with your findings so we can investigate.
