Factorio Forums

I installed the demo, and I got that thing where you had to maximize it, so I did that, went to options and put the game in full screen mode.
then restarted the game because I changed the language, and when I start the game now, I get a really small version of the game starting in the corner of my screen.


it is a little bit smaller than a normal sized pictogram. however, I can't go back to windowed mode. I can't maximize the screen anymore.

more info:
Reinstalling the game doesn't work.

I really hope someone can help me.

Have you read the help FAQ about that? https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... =18&t=3272

I have read it now, but the solutions described didn't work.
I don't think the problem is with the maximizing, the problem lies within the fact that I tried to go fullscreen. and somehow that crashed the game and made everything pile up in my left corner.

I would (if you haven't already) try to edit the config.ini file, line 119 (about 2/3 of the way through) from fullscreen=true to fullscreen=false, (or try deleting the config.ini completely, it should recreate itself).

edit: I realize I forgot to mention where the config file is...it's located in %appdata%\Factorio\config\config.ini if you are using the installed version of Factorio or Factorio\config\config.ini (if you are using the zip version, where 'Factorio' here stands for where you extracted the zip)

Thankyou, it worked, I am really looking forward to play this game, and if I like the demo I will probably buy it.
