Issue with playing WGT in fullscreen mode
Posted: Sun Feb 16, 2020 1:24 pm
Evening all
I have been using slimjet for around 2 years now and have found it to be fantastic and would not use any other browser now.
I firstly downloaded it as I required a lightweight browser for when playing WGT (World Golf Tour) on my admittedly old spec laptop.
I have had no issues playing the game, until about 3 months ago when I updated my slimjet version.
When playing the game, you need to play in full screen mode to play properly, which has worked with no problems at all for a couple of years.
Since the upload of the newer version from some months ago, when I enter full screen mode, the game plays in what looks like a low resolution VGA type format and some of the in game screen buttons no longer work...why, I have no idea and now the game is pretty much rendered unplayable.
Although I can use Chrome or Firefox etc...to play, the heavy load of the apps means the screen lags terribly and again, the game is then very difficult to play.
Whilst I am aware that I could purchase a new laptop or spend to upgrade what I have, I would like to happily keep using what I have and using slimjet as both worked fine previously.
Laptop is an old Dell latitude D630 and slimjet version is currently "Version 25.0.8.0 (based on Chromium 78.0.3904.63) (Official Build) (32-bit)"
Any possible ideas as what I could do to solve my issue would be appreciated greatly.
Regards
Pete
