GRR Launch Good Vibe Thread

[gilesgoat]

Yeah, but the first time you go fullscreen you still have to press alt/enter.

Sounds like a bug?

My only real complaint so far. Getting into full screen is not obvious and should be.

Right, must do some work, so I can get some GRR time later...

Erm .. HOW HOW it should be then ????

"Program starts" is how the program starts when you launch it .. you set it "once for all" as you prefer.

BY DEFAULT the program starts in window mode, despite I do belive "full video is how you should play it" LOT of users
seems to prefer to use it in windows mode only.

ALT-ENTER toggles, it's written in the readme and it's written in the how to play too.

Except that you can't toggle once the game is started.

It's written as well too.

Hmm, well I didn't read the read me, or the how to play. It's a shooter and I know it teaches as we play. I know I should have read them, but how many people do?

How about a menu item on the main menu. 'Switch to full screen mode' and then in full screen mode 'switch to window mode'

.. the next one it's going to tell me that "Ubuntu is USER FRIENDLY is *SO* COOL " I am going to hit him with a big heavvy
blunt object ...

I spent 4 days getting crazy installing Ubuntu ( well not installing - CONFIGURING to make it do what *I* want/need not
the 'default conf' ) messing up with /etc/pippo/banana/sudo/var/config/this_file_with_a_name_so_long_you'll_be_too_tired_to_type.config grep -awk $c -q "apt-get" lulz 12 -VQ --verbose just
to change the colour of a font in a window ..

.. press ALT ENTER .. is easy ..

Menu, maybe, next time maybe .. perhaps ..

ALT and ENTER is standard for full screen mode in Windows isn't it. Like ALT TAB for switching windows?

[IronGiant]

It sure is.

Exactly.

[Yak]

I think there can be a little confusion because alt-enter only works when you're not in-game, so maybe people miss it. It's a limitation of how the game and Neon fit together, and one of these days when we overhaul the engine it's something that'll get addressed. As it is, yes it's a little quirky but it does work when you know how.

Another little control people may not know is there - pressing f1 in-game toggles between various HUD settings, including "hint text off" for korma level, also no HUD and reduced HUD for people who want less or no info onscreen during the game's levels .

I purchased the bundle so I can play SG on my PC too. Done Korma, unlocked Vic20 Gridrunner. Awesome!

Brilliant stuff guys! Hope it picks up and earns you some beer money.

Why do I fancy a curry right now?

[IronGiant]

Really enjoying this, it's kind of hypnotic, relaxing and challenging all at the same time. Now I easily get frustrated with games these days, but have yet to feel any irritation with the game. Time just flies by when you're playing as it's so absorbing.

Lovely job guys, have a beer on me.

How about putting the whole readme on the title screen, then everyone will see/read all of it?

I tried out the demo; it ran flawlessly on a GeForce 7600 GT. Just purchased, and can't wait to get into it for real. Wow, it's been 15 years since I first discovered Yak's unique genius.

Thanks and congratulations on another great product!

Nah - hope it picks up and earns them house money

I'll spread the word as much as I can.

It works pretty well on my GeForce 7600GS too (in a window) with an Athlon XP running at 1.8GHz. Some occasional slight slowdown but nowt to worry about.
