    Hi, maple windowed mode doesn't work for me, i just wanna play in windowed cause its what i have been doing since i started maple in 08. I've been looking at other posts but no other solutions help me

    Problems/ solutions I've tried
    1.
    If i press Alt Enter i get the "Alt f12 state" some weird numbers in a black box at the top right corner i guess fps. ( i also tried ctrl/shift enter nothing happends) *same happends if i press Alt f12*
    2. I have tried selecting it with the mouse as well but nope (view mode) after selecting it keeps in full screen and deselect everything so neither window mode or full screen mode says it selected
    3. Maple Legend Embedder does not work i guess since it needs to be in window mode ? not sure
    4. Changing compatibility currently using windows 98/ windows me, Changing them some of them will allow me to start the game some of them not
    5.I have tried changing to all diffrent screen resolutions, hasnt worked out for any of them.
    6.I even tried dxwnd and that doesn't work either

    Windows 10
    Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz (8 CPUs), ~4.0GHz
    DirectX Version: DirectX 12
    Graphics card: AMD Radeon (TM) R9 390 Series


    Thankyou in advance if we can get this to work, i just really want the window mode back,

    Hello,

    same Problem here. AMD 390 Fury Nitro.

    Has something to do with the current driver imo.

    Have you tried the different compatibility modes? [right-click MapleLegends.exe > Properties > Compatibility]

    I believe LinLin got it fixed by putting the resolution on 640x480 which you can find in right click MapleLegends > Properties > Comptaibility

    I had these options ticked for my compatibility issue. I used to have the same problem when i try to switch to window mode, nothing happens and it just makes that annoying windows boop sound. After having these ticked, i could change to window mode with ease.

    I tried this, it just still makes the beeping noise, i think it may be because i have windows 10? idk, also i have been able to make dxwnd work, just that when i use it it zooms my screen in so much that i actually cant use it T-T. i guess i'll just have to play full screen mode.

    I found a solution on the internet that might work.
    Try changing the monitor Hz number in your graphics settings
