Force borderless windowed mode
|
- Set the game to run in windowed mode in the in-game video settings, make sure it's set to the same resolution as your desktop.
- Close the game. Make sure you haven't set the game to run in compatibility mode for XP nor Vista, the former causes borderless to be glitchy and the latter leads to a crash. Compatibility mode for 7 (if you're running 8+) is fine, should you need it.
- Install Borderless Gaming.
- Run the game and wait for it to get to the main menu.
- Run Borderless Gaming, click
Fast & Furious: Showdown on the left panel, click the arrow pointing to the right.
- In a few moments the game window should become borderless fullscreen. If Borderless Gaming isn't making the game borderless try running Borderless Gaming as administrator.
- If UI elements are clipping off-screen, in Bordlerless Gaming, right-click
Fast & Furious: Showdown under Favorites , and check No Size Change .
