Hi guy,
I installed CS2D 0.1.1.8 on my linux computer, but I can't put it in fullscreen. I added the -full-16bit in the command line but it's doesn't work too : it run, but in windowed mode.

In the 0.1.1.7, I was able to play in full screen but not now, why? ;s

Try ALT+Enter to go in/out of fullscreen mode whenever using a application that has it enabled. Obviously it wouldn't work in some cases, errors happen... the OS's sometimes don't let you into fullscreen mode. Wonder why they don't add support for that... is there a reason?

Anyways, Wine is also good.

You can launch it like so (from the terminal) ::
1
Dot@FB1 [~/cs2d]$ ./CounterStrike2D -fullscreen -16bit
I reccomend 24-bit or 26-bit, just incase your Linux distro has problems with 32-bit ( and quite a few distros do ).

@Qrchack:
But he said he can start it in Windowed and not Fullscreen, it's probably because he didn't ever have to start it with parametres before because before 0.1.1.8 it always started in Fullscreen mode.

old DOSBox solution.

One thing that might help would be by using DOSBox, that will probably fix it. It works for me on Windows 7 perfectly, you can download the different versions here.

• Linux: (dosbox-0.74.tar.gz).
• Windows: (DOSBox0.74-win32-installer.exe).

What the programme does is emulate a DOS window that can change the resolution and everything related to the screen, therefor making anything run in fullscreen would now be possible. Unfortunally I found a way better way to get fullcreen on, but I think it only works in Windows 7 OS with the right programme with the same graphics card as me. Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for Mobile, all I needed to do was right click the tray icon of it and select (Graphics Options > Panel Fit > Scale Full Screen) and it was all done. This fixed my fullscreen problem, try my DOSBox solution I'm sure that it will fix the issue.
