You can also use Autohotkey to convert the ahk script into an exe file if you don't want to keep Autohotkey installed. *Thanks to jmcgrath for helping improve the instructions. make sure to leave a comment and I'll correct it!) If you can't get it to work, it means one of us made a mistake somewhere in the previous steps. Now, start the game, get to the main menu and press Control+LeftShift+Tilde. If a green H icon shows up in the taskbar it means it should be ready to use. Now open the file you just saved (the one with the ahk extension). Save it with any name you want, but save it with. Now go to to the file menu and click save as. Open up 'Embiggen Window.txt' in notepad and edit the the resolution in the fourth line( the 12 numbers are what you want to replace.) to match your desktop resolution. Once you have AutoHotKey installed download 'Embiggen Window text file' under optional files. Now download Autohotkey from their website mentioned above and install it. This way takes a little more work, but it's more customizable. If something doesn't work, leave a comment and I'll try to figure out what went wrong. The revert button will undo the 'Embiggening' process.(In case you Embiggen something you didn't intend to) Your game should be fullscreen in 10 seconds.

Alt+Tab back into the game within 10 seconds of pressing the Embiggen button. Alt+Tab to the Embiggen Window program and press the Embiggen button. Now, start the game and get to the main menu. Open it, and a small box name Embiggen Window should pop up with two buttons on it. Now download the alternate compiled version from the file section. This version was written in c++ and uses a 10 second timer instead of a hot-key. Instructions for alternate compiled version: You only need to perform this action once. If your windows taskbar remains visible, alt-tab to another window (desktop, internet browser, file, etc) and then alt-tab back to fallout new vegas. Now, start the game, get to the main menu and press Control+LeftShift+Tilde (Tilde is the button above Tab on my keyboard). (should show up as a green H icon in your system tray) Now download the compiled version from the file section.

First of all, start the F:NV launcher, go to options, set your resolution to match your desktop resolution, and make sure the Windowed box is checked. I've only tested this on my computer, so no guarantees on how well it will work on yours.Īs of 11/27/10, there is an alternate compiled version that doesn't use hotkeys!(see instructions for new compiled version below) The non-compiled version requires Autohotkey to be installed, which can be downloaded at. I've been using this for a number of games for a while now, and figured I would share since there doesn't seem to be a program that does this for New Vegas.
