Tenderfoot Thahd Rzrwd Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 I'm playing Avernum 3 1.1.1 on Mac os 10.1.5 and have found that I can't access the apple menu when I've opened the application, which makes multi-tasking very hard if not impossible. Its very annoying when somebody sends me an IM and I can't respond without quiting the game, is there some way to do this that I've overlooked or is this a bug nobody else has experienced before? I searched this forum and didn't find anything related to my problem here. Any help greatly appreciated. thanks, Rzrwd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Seletine Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 Go into the Finder and show info for the application; this command is in the File menu. In the information window, choose "Open in the Classic Environment." (385) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Drakefyre Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 You could also choose to play it in windowed mode, which will give it a Minimize button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Rzrwd Posted November 13, 2002 Author Share Posted November 13, 2002 well I guess I coulld try playing it in classic mode but then what was the point in downloading a carbon version? (don't bother answering that, just a useless question) I didn't know I could put it in a window mode, how do I do it? Rzrwd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Drakefyre Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 If you click on Settings from the main screen, unclick "Avernum takes up full screen" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Rzrwd Posted November 13, 2002 Author Share Posted November 13, 2002 actually all that does is makes the screen move up towards the upper-left corner, it doesn't let you see applications in the background Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Drakefyre Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 But do you get a menubar with minimize and close buttons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Rzrwd Posted November 13, 2002 Author Share Posted November 13, 2002 no, unless i'm looking in the wrong place, where would it be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Drakefyre Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 What is your screen resolution? If it's 800x600, you won't see it. Try Command+Tab to switch applications, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Rzrwd Posted November 13, 2002 Author Share Posted November 13, 2002 yeah i am using 800x600, i'm jusat to lazy to switch.
