The most recent client updates includes various fixes and improves overall polish for windows 8.1 and windows mode.
Windows mode improvements (released Jan 23rd):
- New method for lock cursor, a few folks have complained the existing lock cursor didn't work
- Lock cursor and window mode is now default (when 32-bit rendering is enabled)
- The title bar is now automatically hidden when the game resolution requires full screen; likewise the title bar comes back when the resolution is subsequently lowered. Hide title bar feature should mostly become useless after this update (other than perhaps for streamers).
- The game window is centered when less then full screen (when the title bar isn't disabled)
- Hold ctrl-alt to release cursor lock when moving mouse outside of game window.
- AoC Userpatch : Fixed double listing of resolutions in the in-game settings
- AoC Userpatch : Added multi-mon resolutions to in game resolution list when 32-bit is enabled + dx hw acceleration isn't off. Can now toggle between multi-mon and single screen in-game when using user-patch
Win8.1 compatibility issues (released last week):
- Better handling of directplay missing on win8.1, game diagnostic will now prompt when dplay is missing and provides option to launch the microsoft feature installer
- A new Windows Compatibility menu was added to in "Game Room" > "Game". Fixes for DPI scaling (caused overstretch on some laptop) is enabled by default as-is run as admin (fixes hotkey issues).
