Dingusen Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 In previous versions of the game I have from time to time Alt+tab to windows during games to do other stuff...no NOT porn... In FM15 this stops the match from being played in the background. Is there a way to turn it on, or fix this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManagerFootball Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Is it possible to know why we now have to play in windowed mode for the game to continue where as last year we did not have too? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo98 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 biggest question this raises......is why on earth NOT porn...... That said, as HUNT3R says, it works fine with windowed mode and also avoids any issues with resolution changes between windows. You dont lose anything, unless you are playing quite a low res to begin with i think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Neil Brock Posted November 10, 2014 Administrators Share Posted November 10, 2014 Yeah bear in mind nearly all games have this same functionality, you leave the game from full screen and it'll pause. If you want to do things in the background, that's what Windowed mode allows you to do. Constantly dropping from full screen to desktop had the potential to cause issues when the match was running so now you can't. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingusen Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Ah ok, thx. Never ever played anything in windows mode as in them old days of gaming THAT used to cause issues Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widzew Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 This doesn't always happen to me. I usually always alt tab during the first half. It sometimes pauses, sometimes it doesn't. FM14 and FM13 never ever paused when alt tabbed. I find it very annoying when it pauses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManagerFootball Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Will the windows key on keyboard trick it into still continuing or same end result? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always liked switching out to read something while the match was playing through a boring bit or if I was winning 7-0. Can't do that now. >_> Won't go to windowed mode that is.

Lower Leagues Rule Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 This doesn't always happen to me. I usually always alt tab during the first half. It sometimes pauses, sometimes it doesn't. FM14 and FM13 never ever paused when alt tabbed. I find it very annoying when it pauses. In FM13 or FM14 it happened in the first version, but was changed early on as "it was an unintended consequence" guess it is back again. I noticed this in one game, but it didn't pause another time, is a bit weird. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
