Windows 10 is the latest operating system from Microsoft, and sometimes new operating systems have issues with older software. One of these issues is related to avideo gamecalled Unreal Tournament 2004.
Users report that Unreal Tournament 2004 isn’t working in fullscreen, so let’s see if we can fix this.
Unreal Tournament 2004 is an oldgame, so some issues are expected. Users report that they are gettingerrors when they are trying to run thegamein fullscreen.
This isn’t just related to Unreal Tournament 2004 and othergamesthat use Unreal 2 engine are having these issues as well.
It appears that there are no issues in window mode, but let’s see if we can make Unreal Tournament 2004 run in fullscreen.
What to do if Unreal Tournament 2004 isn’t working in fullscreen:
Solution 1 – Use OpenGL
To do this, you’ll need to locate the UT2004.ini file and change it. This file should be located in the Unreal Tournament 2004 installation directory.
When you find the installation directory, locate the System folder and in there you should find UT2004.ini.
Now yourgameshould be working properly.
Solution 2 – Set ReduceMouseLag to False
Solution 3 – Run the 64-bit version of the game
These issues with fullscreen appear only on32-bitversion of Unreal Tournament 2004, so you might want to try using the64-bitversion of thegame. If you have all the patches, you probably have64-bitversion launcher for thegamein its installation directory.
We hope that one of our solutions worked for you. Feel free to tell us in the comments section below what other issues did you encountered in UT2k4 and how did you fixed them.
