Need help - Minimizing game stops action
Author
Hi all
I'm playing an online game and when i minimize it to read mail or do other stuff, the window goes inactive (all characters movement around me and spells are 'buffered' and play at high speed when i maximize game again, which creates lag and i cannot move for some time). Is there a way to keep window active ? I can provide executable if u need looking at it.
OS = windows xp professional
Regards,
Paul
- You haven't said what game you're playing.
- This forum is for programming games, not playing them.
- It's a bug/misfeature of whatever game you're playing, contact whoever made it.

No, it's not development, since you don't have access to the source code of the game. Contact developers of the game, instead of posting in a GAME DEVELOPERS forum.

God, I hate people who think this place has anything to do with tech support. All you're likely to get is "Install Linux". I'll be different.
Buy a Mac.
Write it into your will. Leave it to me.
Then jump off a bridge.

Yes. But for that you need the source code for the game. We cannot do anything with just the executable. You should contact the game's authors.

Well, we can do things with the executable, just not things he would consider solving his problem. We could run it through 'cat' and print it right out, and then make origami swans with the printout.

funny i always been considered native english speaker when i've been playing online games, so please be so kind and point out my mistakes
note: if you wanna be hyper-correct it's not 'speak' but 'write'
and you hate too much .. should learn about loving
i personally like 'tail' more cause 'cat' is lame
and you can do things with the executable too but well... i guess that's not orthodox to think of
i'll just keep searching
