Warmane PS., Plus any Wrath 3.3.5 Client... Black screen Windowed Mode Issue/ Resolved.

[@FROZENbender]

playing on vanillagaming with the 1.12 client and had the same issue. this fixed it! ty so much

[@gmcdowell3640]

Great fix, surprisingly simple and actually worked on a different private server with the same issue. Thanks for uploading this tutorial.

[@wizegamer]

Happy to help :)

[@lovecodwaw]

OMG FINALLY i found a Fix... i couldnt do anything for reaolution my res was stuck at like 700x420 or some shit and after your video i figured it out because i was missing the fxResolution as well as i was able to put it in windows... the resolution fix really helped because every time id change it it woukd glitch and make it to were id have to restart the PC to be able to exit the game since it would glitch me in windows task manager

[@AnEnemyAnemone1]

I had this issue on Ascension WoW. I suspected there must be some config file I could edit, but I was only trying to get rid of the black screen. I didn't expect to actually be able to get windowed mode to work, so thank you!

[@wizegamer]

wow so this is still a issue and working, cool thanks

[@jacquesoosthuizen8537]

omg finaly somone who had the same prob i had THANK YOU DUDE so so much i have 3 screens and every time i wanna to go too other screen i have too alt tab out and back in

[@thesnazzle]

4 years later, this still works! thanks bud!

[@wizegamer]

awesome!!

[@meepiemoo]

You're a life saver! Game minimizing itself every time I clicked on my other screen was so infuriating

[@Psyched_Crow]

my goodness, thank you you incredibly accented man. I screwed it up and quit the game because I didn't realize hitting escape would put it back and this fixed it right up.

[@jaredaswan]

BRO! Thank you so much for this! This also helped on the PRIVATE SERVER ChromieCraft! I really appreciate the video!

[@SomeWheats]

My game's video settings reset on its own for whatever reason. When I tried to set everything back to how it was I was only getting a black screen on start up with the menu's audio. Adding that line in the file fixed it, thank you :)

[@willyruberty6167]

Dude, thank you so much, I searched for a resolution in spanish but there were not. I tried in english and your video was the first one I saw. Once again, thanks man.

[@Rovashagaming]

[@LTLuh]

Genuinely love you

[@iankrouse1918]

I have the opposite problem on a TBC private server called Endless. I can launch the game windowed, and in windowed fullscreen by adding that line to the WTF file. However, if I try to change the value to "0" or if I try to manually change the video settings to fullscreen, I get a black screen but can hear game sounds and move my character use spells etc. Do you know the fix to this?

[@Brandon-vk1cm]

I read this on a forum, idk if it do works but hope it'll help : Disable second monitor> reload wow> login to whatever account> reset default video settings>should fix

[@Brandon-vk1cm]

I actually found a solution that did works for me, because I hade the same issue as you. I just closed WoW, deleted my "WTF" folder, then reload WoW. It'll recreate the default WTF folder, reset your settings, and by default it's window mode off. And I did not had blackscreen anymore. You'll just need to re-configure the game as you want, and maybe some add-ons. Hope it'll help.

[@antaaares787]

Great video, it helped me A LOT. Thanks!!!!

well done great job dude, thank you love and hearts

[@StormWorm5364]

Know it's been a while, but the issue is have is that Warmane instantly puts my aspect ratio to 4:3 when the game launches, and if I have windowed mode active, it never brings the 16:9 aspect ratio back.

[@tomtom8900]

i had this error 1 time a year ago and your emthod wokred great but now i unchecked the window mode type in the macro and nothing happens full black screen stays this time. someone have an idea?

[@maxhughes4049]

thank you this video helped me out

[@lepoupon8288]

thanks kind sir, worked like a charm

[@King_Sad_Boy]

Appreciate the video on the fix but god damn if this isn't a 30 second video stretch way longer than it needs to be.

[@wizegamer]

Yeah I improved on that in later videos, thanks

[@ahmedel-talhi3549]

when I get a Dbuff or go to a fogy area my screen turn white and I cant see nothing only my mini map and my skills and grid I fix it when I relog but now I did RS 25 when I went in to the twilight world my screen turn to purple and I died to the Twilight cutter it was so embarrassing how I can fix this thing although I know I can fix it by relogging but I cant just relog every time I have to do a boss fight ????????

[@wizegamer]

that sounds like the textures, there is a command that makes weather less noticeable. one downside of PS is no support, TBH I only know what worked here

[@JAMZJR76]

Thanks fixxed my issue!

[@prestonlambert5976]

Thank you for the windowed borderless.

[@BananaRaccoon]

Ma man! Thank you!

[@rexarpt5887]

After this way, is there some option to Block the cursor on the screen when playing windowmode borderless? @wize gamer

[@wizegamer]

Hello, I never tried that, so I am not sure, if I find anything I will post it here :)

[@rexarpt5887]

@@wizegamer Ok, thanks for the attention :D

[@bjorik]

THANK YOU Super helpful

[@nik970305]

Is this becouse of the server i play in? its got to be it becouse it creates after i open wow file? but i surch for way where i can check and uncheck w/e i want and i think this problem is connected to the gamma too becouse it happens the samo on gamma think + i found in some post that if u have different gamas and 2 moniturs it fkks it up too so idk wtf is going on:D

[@marios9576]

my setting is SET gxWindow "1" and i still get a black screen when i click on windowed. any other tips?

[@wizegamer]

hmm odd , I actually used myself today on a wotlk PS and worked, maybe try inputting the command in the "data folder and then set the string in either EU or EG.. let me know if that works., or try a restart of your pc.

[@lmjp1623]

Thanks for the video it worked

[@puka_tsv]

Thanks mate working.

[@shanenairn7612]

Legend!!!

[@scotty1436]

Is there a fix for the opposite I can play in window but if i go Full screen it's black screened

[@wizegamer]

I never tried that because my game was always full screen, I am thinking just reverse the command for it , or take that command right out SET gxWindow "1" or set the value to 0.. mind you , if you do this you may not be able to us the windowed full screen mode again, unless you revert it back. If you try this let us know :) Thanks

[@tarb1320]

so to go back to fullscreen would it be SET gxWindow "0"

[@wizegamer]

sometimes yes, you can try full screen with this. but then going back to windowed may clear it, worse comes to worse just re-input the command :)

[@abdullahalabboudi5022]

thanks dude ,, u saved my day

[@yinyatto9911]

omg thanks alot this worked for me

[@joakozeta]

It doesn't really work for me, the game looks super pixelated even tho it says its in 1920x1080.. It's clearly because of my dual monitor setup, but I can't make it work :(

[@wizegamer]

I amazed the devs still haven't fixed this, sorry to hear that, some can be on the PC end.

[@rickadmiraal9864]

Your a legend!

[@opexo]

Thank you very much i needed this fix. But now the gamma or brightness if way down and the option in the game is greyed out. How do you fix this without touching the settings on the monitor because then the desktop will be very bright

[@wizegamer]

Off the top of my head, i am not sure because I didn't have that issue.. Glad to help with the black screen :)

[@sametemren8108]

well i have the opposite problem game always satart with windoed and i cant make it full screen

[@MrVassily]

Thanks Bro, it worked

[@Leodachef1]

Hey man i have a different Problem, maybe you can help. Everytime i close the 3.3.5 Client and reopen it, it completly resets its interface. So graphics, resolution and sound is resetted. I even have to reaccept the terms of services everytime i open the game. It seems stuck in the first openeing phase all the time. Please can any1 help me, its fucking annoying.

[@KKR_B5032]

Thank you! That fixed it

[@chandude3]

I cant get back by setting the value to 0, cant get back to fullscreen without getting a black screen...

[@wizegamer]

Not sure off hand , i think the 0 is the reason for the black screen.. plus I only use windowed mode. which is like full screen.. good luck.

[@MrHejton]

Great job !

[@Lumax96]

thanks! for some reason I cant set it to full screen now, though. Adding SET gxWindow "0" does not help unfortunately

[@wizegamer]

hmm we can see it worked for me and other comments, things like this doesn't always work for everyone , plus im not sure if they changed things, but it should of worked for you. I will see what newer comments states for a update. Thanks for the heads up.

[@Lumax96]
