Hello everyone,

My Red Orchestra always starts either in 640x480 Windowed Mode, or just starts in Windowed Mode, so it screws up my Steam overlay by putting all my chat boxes in the middle of my screen and I have to move all of them back, does anyone know why Red Orchestra does this and how to stop it?

If you do anything while RO is starting up like clicking on an internet page to read that. It will launch in windowed mode, so you can continue reading that page etc.

To start RO in fullscreen mode start the game and pretty much don't touch anything till you are ingame.

That seems to be it Zetsumei, thanks. I was so used to getting as much done before my games booted up I didn't even realize I was doing it.

When I boot up Red Orchestra and I do not click anything it still happens, I cannot seem to get it to stop.

That works for maximizing it but I still have it shrink down extremely small sometimes even when I have Red Orchestra as my only window.
