Quirkitized Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) NOTE! This does not change your games resolution, fullscreen, or window! It will only change your mission editor! I find it very helpful to use the mission editor as a window, as oppose to fullscreen. Even if you uncheck fullscreen in the options menu, the mission editor is still "fullscreen". I been using this for a long time and I'm sure others do as well but don't think I seen it posted in mod section... This makes it much easier for workflow making missions, especially with dual/multimonitors, can have mission editor open and visible at all times while cross referencing things on another monitor. See pic: I've included two typical resolutions in the attachments. To install, use JSGME or simply drop the 'MissionEditor' folder into DCS World. If you wish to make your own custom size, do this: DCS World\MissionEditor'\MissionEditor.lua Open this file in notepad++ goto line 196 and change fullscreen to window "return width, height, fullscreen" to "return width, height, window" For height and width adjustments, enter the values you want on line 192 and 193, for example: width = 2540 height = 1320 I use smaller width and height than my actual resolution so it fits above task bar and on screen nicely. EDIT: If for whatever reason the attachment fails to download, you can use these external links 1920x1080: http://rapidshare.com/files/4164176124/DCS%20World%20Windowed%20Menu%201920x1080.zip 2560x1440: http://rapidshare.com/files/2937061974/DCS%20World%20Windowed%20Menu%202560x1440.zipDCS World Windowed Menu 1920x1080.zipDCS World Windowed Menu 2560x1440.zip Edited March 16, 2013 by Quirkitized 2

Quirkitized Posted March 16, 2013 Author Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) I been using this for a couple years did not mean to take any credit away from peter. At any rate, hopefully this just brings more attention to others for a useful edit. I forgot PeterP made a thread about this here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1373707&postcount=1 It contains the same info, just patch 1.2.3 the missioneditor.lua file was updated, so make sure you use info above, basically the same it's just now lines 196 instead of 195 to change to window, then enter your values.
