you can do it in MMF, so what i'd do is ask someone to compile it in MMF for you and add that feature.

there are two full screen options in tgf

there is an option to make the screen the same size as whatever the windows size is.
but it goes SLOW on slower pcs

or you can use 16bit mode 320x200 res
and 256 colours

then the fullscreen at start should work (it doesnt for my on my xp machine but did on 9
oh and allow user to switch to/from fullscreen

Try ALT + Enter. This is a universal shortcut key for any program that supports windowed mode/fullscreen.

i know that you can change the game setup so it stretches to full screen and ive played it in that mode and its fine,but i want to allow the user to choose whether or not they want it to stretch or stay small cus i know a lot of klikers who are picky bout that kindof thing, i could easily make to seperate games, but i know its possible in a klik game im just not sure its possible with TGF. little help?
cheers

There was a Display Properties object which changed the resolution of the game - however, it's probably not the best thing to use, because if your game crashes the resolution won't change back :S Download it here: http://objects.ebw.ca/index.php?view=author&sort=mikejohnson

I'd recommend that you get someone with MMF to add this in for you, as TGF's only option (Resize to fit window...) slows down the game so much that it makes it unplayable. I can do it if you want; my email is on my website and my profile.
