How does make xplane v 5.52 run in a window vs full screen?

Hi.

X-Plane latest version, that I know of is 11.50b10 and File version is 11.0.50.22, the Plane Maker follows the same numbering.

Are you thinking about another sim?

Assuming that you are asking about 11.50 I find that in Full screen mode works better for me, the only time I use Windows mode is if I develop or test something and and I do not want to restart, which can take a long time, in particular in the latest Vulkan versions.

I mostly use ver 11.41 which has much better texture rendering a lot more stable and better performance in my system.

One other use for Windows mode may be if you want to do do something else during the XPlane start that can take as long as 10 minutes for some users, you can still use your PC to do something else during this time. After the start it's easy to go in Settings and go in Full screen.

Yes I am serious, I got v 5.52.

 

In the meantime as I wait, I did some testing.

 

When it runs on pure hardware running Windows 10, it is full screen.

 

But when I run it in a VM (like VMware Workstation Player running Windows ME) it runs as a Window.

 

What the heck is up with that?

 

I may consider try to run Windows 10 as a VM just to see if there a difference or not.

 

Please and thank you

Found what you are talking about.

 

Is there anywhere I can download it without the need to register?

 

If not, is there anyway it can uploaded here? As I a registered user here..

 

Please and thank you
