So I just downloaded the Demo and I'm all for buying the game, but not until i can get this screen sizing problem fixed. Every time i go to open the game, its opened in a window or size that in entirely too big to use. i can't even reach the settings section in-game. below is a video of what i'm talking about. please, someone help as i'm somewhat new to windows, oh and im on a macbook, but windows works normal. MXS works fine.


Look at this to see what im talking about ----> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy39qmxBfqI

Have you tried alt-enter for full-screen?

yes i just tried it, nothing happened. is there a way to make the game "windowed" without going to settings?

Try manually setting the resolution. Go to the installation directory, (where you've installed Mx bikes) then you'll see two .ini files, one name core.ini and the other mxbikes.ini. Open the mxbikes.ini with a text editor. In that text file on the bottom it will have an x and y value. If it says 0, erase the zeros and type your correct resolution for your monitor. If it's a 1920 x 1080 monitor just do 1920 for x and 1080 for y. Then save the file and restart Mx bikes

Tried that with both .ini files and the only difference it made was a notification from windows saying the optimal resolution is 2560x1600 but with the same screen misfitting. id be impressed if there was another way of fixing this.

Try editing the full screen value in the same mxbikes.ini. Under the resolution it says fullscreen=1. Change the value from 1 to 0 and save and restart Mx bikes

Did fullscreen=0 not change to windowed mode for you?
