Ravenshield in Windowmode?

Does anybody know if you can run Ravenshield in window mode, i know you can get like a small window but thats not what im looking for. What i want would be either a maximized window or something that cover most of the screen. If anyone knows id be more then happy if you would like to share that info

Thanks in advance

You can run the game in full screen or windowed mode, that's the only real choice.

The RavenShield.ini file specifies what resolution to run the game at for both full screen and windowed modes. The setting is under the WinDrv.WindowsClient section and the parameters are fairly self explanatory once you read the file. In the same section, you'll find the StartupFullscreen parameter which controls whether the game starts in fullscreen or not. You can switch between FS/Windowed mode while the game is running by pressing alt+enter, but you can only safely edit the INI file when the game is not running. Everything you can do in the games options/settings menus merely adjusts several INI files.

If you want to change the size of the viewport in windowed mode, you have to set a resolution for it that most closely matches the window size you desire it to have. It's not like a regular program where you can just resize it to an arbitrary dimension. RvS may or may not react well to a non-standard resolution in windowed mode, so you would have to test it if you want to do something odd like 1000x760 instead of 1024x768.

All of this is fairly standard Unreal Engine stuff.
