Hi everyone, this is my first post. I want to play SC4 (Steam version) and I'm downloading all the fundamental fixes. When I execute it it wont go fullscreen and if i try to maximize the window, the window itself will go to the left side of the screen but will remain a window. I tried steam launch parameters and voodoo. Can anyone help me?

Using SC4 Deluxe (GOG) under Windows 10 1909 on VirtualBox 6.1 (both Mac and Linux host OSes) results in a strange graphics issue - the game will not run in resolutions over 1024x768, regardless of changing in-game settings or using a custom resolution. Running windowed works for a few lower 4:3 resolutions, but going higher makes the game run full screen 1024x768 (seemingly ignoring the setting) and trying to use any other ratio leads to the game not launching at all. I could not find anyone else with the same problem online - yet have been able replicate it on two different host systems. Any advice?

Setting up for the game to run in Window or Fullscreen Mode
luvs2draw posted a topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Hello everyone, I need a little help getting the Game to run in Window or Fullscreen Mode. First I am running Windows 10 64 bit on an HP Pavilion Notebook Laptop. Graphics card is AMD Radeon R 6 ( there is no way to change settings to select to turn on Fullscreen in the Graphics). The game is opening with the 2 black strips on the Right and Left side of the screen. I had the game install in the C (systems drive) instead of Program Files (86). I have added to the target the -w and -f and also tried -r - CoustomResolution:enable -1600x900x32 while the game was installed on the C drive (was installed after the -CPUCount:1 entry was there from the install) removed the -f and entered -w, and there was no change in the way the game starts. I thought it might be because the game installed in the C drive, might be the problem, so I removed my Plugins and Region folders and deleted the game and installed it to the C:/Program Files (86). I changed the target from the -f to -w, there was no change in how the game loads, it loaded with the 2 strips on both sides of the screen. The only time the game will show up in the Window mode is when I close the game ( it shows up in a Window screen then closes). Is there any way to get the game to start in the Window or Fullscreen Mode? . -
