OSX Display Bug

Recommended Posts

I haven't fired up CoH for a few months. When I try to start up, it gives me a dialog box with the message "Couldn't change to fullscreen. The graphics mode is not supported. Setting game to 800x600 windowed mode.". I then hit 'ok' and it appears to start up normally.

 

However, it only displays the top left of the login splash screen. It appears to be working, but I can't enter username/password (because they're not on screen).

Hey Hjarki,

 

I'm sorry for your troubles! I would try closing out of the game and opening the 'Safe-Mode' client!

 

This should help alleviate the graphics issue and allow the game to run properly! If for some reason your game is 'zoomed in' and you can't access the settings/etc you can always adjust your computer's graphics settings to match up with the game!

 

I had to do the same thing when I was playing on my laptop for a bit. ^_^

 

Let me know if this helps!

That is not a Mac OS X program, and therefore not Island Rum 😛

They may serve the same purpose and come from the same programmer ... but they're not the same program, nor do they run on the same OS.

Back on topic: 

 

So I'm running the 64bit client on Mac OS X (Mojave 10.14.6) and also don't have a Full Screen option now. But I do have Borderless (Monitor 1), Borderless (Monitor 2, 2560x1449 (Desktop) and Windowed options as well as the set of standard screen sizes. and Borderless works perfectly for me. (It may be because I'm running dual monitors as separate spaces)

I just upgraded from Mojave to Catalina and when I start the game, everything is a jumbled mess. Seems like chunks of the graphics aren't lining up with each other. I was able to swap to a lower resolution and it resolved it, but when I turned some settings down, it went back to the mess and now I cannot adjust anything. 

 

Posting here because, like the OP, I do not have access to a 'Safe Mode' client.

 

Any suggestions on a fix?

 

I was running the 3360x resolution ever since 64-bit was released and it has been fine. HELP!!
