lu9 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Hellote again lol, it's me. I can't get the LR windowed mode doing right! Look what I tried: DXWnd - With Admin and without admin, with DirectX6 version selected, nothing works. adding -window - Didn't worked again Setting into 16-bit mode - I actually only turned it to 16-bit and is still staying with it so I can run LEGO Loco, I tried the above 2 things with the 16-bit mode, didn't work again. LEGO Racers run normally in Full Screen with no bugs on my Windows 7, but the question is the windowed mode... So if you know the problem here are the specs of my computer: Notebook - HP Windows 7 Home Basic 64 Bits Intel Core i5 (lol i don't know if that is needed but just in case...) Thanks again supah friends xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
le717 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 First off, thanks to TheDoctor for pointing me to this program. The advice in this post is his, and the batch code was corrected by me. First off, download QRes (namely, qres-src1097.zip), and copy the qres-src1097/qrescd/sample-cd/qres folder and paste it somewhere (ideally your Program Files). Open Notepad (or Notepad++), and add the following code: @echo off pathtoqres\qres.exe c=16 /R "LEGORacers.exe" -window exit Save it as a .bat file with any name, and copy it to the LEGO Racers installation path. Click it, and LR will now run in windowed mode. I have sucessfully tested this on Windows Vista, 7, and 8 with no compatibility, and had no problems. I had trouble running the batch file from the QRes folder. BTW, this would be a great addition to the LR 1/2 FAQ (hint hint). EDIT: I got LR running in 320x240 windowed mode. Haha.

lu9 Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 ??? I'm confused. pathoqres should be replaced with the path where I placed QRes? (may be a bit obvious, but just asking) Because I tried all ways, with pathoqres, and with C:Program Files (x86)qresqres.exe Help!! EDIT: Now at least the CMD recognizes the path of QRES, I Placed qres in the bare C: so it is now located at C:qres BUT, ERROR: Title:qres Message: Cannot run "LEGORacers.exe" -window and the bat file is in the LEGO Racers folder.

LUModder Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Download QRES, make a .bat file with this @echo off qres.exe c=16 cd "C:Program Files (x86)LEGO MediaGamesLEGO Racers" "LEGORacers.exe" -novideo -window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JrMasterModelBuilder Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I think this is the code you want to save in a batch file in the folder with LEGORacers.exe @echo off C:\"Program Files (x86)"\qres\qres.exe c=16 /R "LEGORacers.exe" -window exit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lu9 Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 '-' Those codes was the same le717 said, and still gives an error "Cannot Run "LEGORacers.exe" -window" Help!! EDIT: Aha! LUModder code seems to work fine, yay! Now you can lock this just kidding! EDIT 2: The Window is working (and the stupid black flashing 16bit lines, lol) alright, but when I click on another thing than the window it minimizes it! By that I can't pin it with DeskPins. Is there a way? Because I chat and stuff while I play :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I think that is hard coded behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lu9 Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 I think that is hard coded behaviour. but maybe I can pin it with DeskPins, but.. how? If I select the deskpin icon on the taskbar, LEGO Racers minimizes and I can't pin from the taskbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
