Crossfire In-game Window TuT
Crossfire In-game Window TuT
This is a pretty simple nine-step tutorial to get crossfire to play in a window, I haven't tested it on Vista simply because i've become tired of using it and i've switched to XP. So I'm not sure how it would work using Vista but i can assure you it works with XP.
FIRST: Download a program called DxWnd which i'm sure most of you are familiar with.
www. m e d i a f i r e .com/download.php?vjnntgi3lnl
SECOND: Open DxWnd, then remove any existing entries unless your computer's main drive has a "D" drive rather than the usual "C".
THIRD: select the edit drop down menu and pick add, You should see "..." beside a white empty space. click on the "..." button and go to your C:\Program Files\G4box\CrossFire\ folder tehn select CF_G4box.exe press open Then press "ok"
FOURTH: do the same method as above but select the crossfire.exe file instead of CF_G4box.
FITFH: Close DxWnd and reopen it again to make sure your settings are still there.
SIXTH: Make sure DxWnd is left open and start up CF, once CF is done loading you should see it in a window covering up half of your screen.
SEVENTH: Either select the minimize button or press the windows logo button +D on your keyboard and you should end up on the desktop.
EIGHTH: right click your desktop and select properties. Then go to the settings tab and choose the default resolution that your computer is usually at.
NINTH: either alt+tab back to crossfire or select it on the taskbar. Let it load for a couple seconds and CF should be in window both In-game and in the lobby.
And that is it. but each time you want to start CF in a window you will have to startup DxWnd with it and select your resolution.
Also if the windows shape ever becomes to wide while playing, alt-tab to a different program and alt-tab back to CF. I haven't experienced anyproblems, but it may be glitchy since its not exactly professionally made for CF if you know what i mean.

No offense.. but what's the point of this? you can already go in window mode by going in options and checking the little box lol.

Thanks heaps, Im currently using Vista Home Premium and it works. The only thing is that I have to run it as administrator. Sometimes doesnt work Works (90% on vista)
Can you make it stay on my normal resolution(after I alt tab and changed res) on another match as it keeps going back to 800x600 or that other one.
MY current Resolution is 1920x1080
