Running Mayhem in a window?

[Mr.Spam]

Tried searching, but I get a 404 error everytime I hit search. Anyways, is there a way to run mayhem in a window instead of fullscreen? I know in w3d you could type /win in the launcher to do it. Was just wondering if any command can be added to the shortcut to run the game windowed.....Thanks

not to my knowledge, but I'm not 100% sure.

I don't know a thing about this but you might try that /win command you used in 3D. That might work. This is random guess. The only game I have on PC is Worms Armageddon. Worms 3D, WF:US and Worms 4:Mayhem are on Xbox. And I don't know how to window WA. Ding! Idea! Maybe you could go into the settings menu (in Windows, not the game) and set it to windoed. Or go into the Worms 4: Mayhem files and folders and muck about in there. Try these ways and see what happens.

Well I press alt tab and it goes like that, might not do the same for you though.

I dunno about running it in a window, but you can minimize it by doing control-alt-delete, right clicking on the program, and hitting "minimize"...you might be able to put it in a window by doing the same thing with "restore", but I've never tried that.

lol. he means to PLAY it in window mode. not only minimize to get to the desktop. I tried adding /win to the shortcut but that didn't work for me..

Yes there is, add an extra / to the front of the /FS , so it says "//FS"

This is in the default file in your worms folder. Let me know if it works.

he means the logo on the menu screen - the font used for the word 'Mayhem' is different.

The american version is different. It has a different font for Mayhem (which I find much better)

is there a way to change it?

not a way you would find sufficiently simple to bother.

by the way, running the demo with /win in the command line does launch it in a window.

[Espyo]

That's strange. I tryed it and it didn't work. The game won't get windowed.
We need to have on the shortcut's "direction" line this:
"Directory\WORMS 4 MAYHEM.EXE" //WIN"
Right?

[Shockdude]

1. go to w4m directory
2. open launcher.cfg using notepad
3. lower the resolution (the fullscreen resolution will become offcentered)
4. add "/WIN" to the line
5. always run the game using worms4mayhem.exe instead of launcher.exe
done!
