hi all. i've been on eidos forums for a while now but have only just got glidos for TR1. kudos on that, i've had a quick play, it's very good i just need to download the texture packs everyone's been working on.

anyway, i have a problem and a couple of queries. firstly, when in fullscreen mode, i can't control anything until i've alt-tabbed and reselected TOMB.exe. this is a bit annoying, but the main problem is that it goes darker than usual and i have my windows taskbar at the bottom of the screen. i had a look with the search function but couldn't find anything, so sorry if this has already been answered. just wondering if there was a way round this. it's not the problem with the enter key not working, i experienced that and fixed it (thanks 😁)

secondly would it be possible to support widescreen resolutions, and if it was possible would it have the right res but be stretched?

thanks in advance 😀

Actually I get that too at times, but I find either hitting ESC or clicking the mouse is enough to make it responsive, which isn't so bad. This is something that seems to vary with video drivers, so its hard to get a consistant fix.

yeah, i've literally tried hitting every single key and none of that has worked. i can play it in windowed mode which stops it from going darker but i still have to alt-tab and select tomb. i don't know why but could it be that i've got dual screen setup? anyway, thanks for that

I'm running dual head here, but with an ATI X800. I do get the a problem a little like that sometimes, but ESC always fixes it.
