RTW in small window

[mrdun]

How is it possible to play rtw in a small window which cuts out the loading screens when tabing from the game to here and back?

You should add -nm -ne to your shortcut's launch line, I think.

[mrdun]

So it looks like the following?
"C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -nm -ne in the target bar? or the shortcut key?

[Aradan]

"C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -nm -ne"

[mrdun]

So that goes in the target bar?

[Aradan]

Yes, in the target bar. Sorry for the muliple posts, I should have been clearer.

[mrdun]

Thats fine its mainly due to my ignorance. I cant find a thread on it here, only on twcentre where I cant post. S basically now when I play it, it will be half screen?

Also, there is a option in Video Options (I've never tried it) that says Widescreen.
This is maybe the option you are looking for.

I wondered what that did, thanks both of you.

[mrdun]

I'm still having problems. This is what I have typed in:
"C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -nm -ne"
It cuts the loading screens but it is still full window. Is there something else that I have to do to make it smaller?

[Caius]

"C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -nm -ne"

Maybe it silly, but delete the item bolded in the quote and try again.

[mrdun]

Its still not having it, what should it look like?
I can remove the loading screens and put them back on no problem just not small screen.

[Caius]

"C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe -nm -ne"

[mrdun]

Its not having it, it says the file path is not valid
I even tried it with just ne in case I can only use one which another user said.

[SSJVegetaTrunks]

"C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -nm -ne"

Try getting rid of the quotes that I put in bold.

[mrdun]

C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe -nm -ne"

So it looks like that^^^^

[Caius]

C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe -nm -ne"

So it looks like that^^^^

I tried to say that. But my english is bad.

[SSJVegetaTrunks]

No, I was saying like this:

"C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -nm -ne

[mrdun]

Thanks, you dont mind if I let you know if it worked or not tomorrow do you?Garci'- I dont know what to say about your lack of english but hey who gives a flying..... (I dont mean that in a bad way, a very good way)

[Caius]

Thanks, you dont mind if I let you know if it worked or not tomorrow do you?

We dont mind. We work 27/4, err 24/7 days a week to help.

We accept cash or cash.

[mrdun]

Right, do you want the good news or the bad? You know your getting both.
I have got it working but does it only go into the smaller window on the battle screen? What is the point in that, it is probably the only time you need and/or want a full screen! oh and can someone please get rid of the one post every 5000 seconds please it is very annoying, I know it is there to stop spamming and such practices but ca it at least be shortened??

[Caius]

Well, I cant help you. TosaInu does. Pm' him.
