Need help with a Borderless Fullscreen script

Post by Lunos » 05 May 2021, 16:37

Hi. I'm new, and I barely know anything about AHK at all.
I tried out this Borderless Fullscreen script created by a user from the old forum called Klaus2.
It works nicely. The thing is that it doesn't seem to keep the aspect ratio of the game's original resolution, or something like that.

What do I mean?
I'm trying it out on a game created using RPG Maker VX Ace, whose base window resolution is 640x480, and when I use the script to make it go into borderless fullscreen, the whole game screen is stretched out to the sides, which is quite ugly (at least in my opinion).

Can something like this be addressed? Could I get some tips on how to do it, if so?
Thanks!

Perhaps use a full screen background borderless gui, then a second foreground 640x480 or whatever for your game?

Can you explain that idea a bit better? I don't quite understand it.
Really, anything that allowed me to keep the 4:3 aspect ratio would work fine by me.

How does checking resolutions from a whitelist sound?
Something like "check the target window's resolution, if it's present in that list, don't mess with its width at all".
I just don't quite know how to go about doing it. Any tips would be appreciated.

Well, my idea will retain the aspect ratio However you’ll still end up with 640x480. The game graphics must scale to avoid the issue, which is probably not supported in your game. You might try windows screen magnifying but that may not give ideal results.

GIYF. I did a search how to run 640x480 game full screen and got several results, give it a try.
