    Are there any Alt-Tab fixes yet?

    As most of you probably know, the new patch broke alt-tab'ing for a lot of people. That function is a must in tournament play, so I'd like to get it fixed ASAP.

    Other than the AA fix, does anyone know a better fix?

    It seems I answered my own question. I just stumbled on this:

      So now instead of sacrificing anti-aliasing, we get to trade in our new widescreen FOV options?

      I hope DICE does a proper hotfix for this...

          I have no reason to Alt-Tab out of game, so this is purely academic for me... but I certainly wouldn't trade my Widescreen resolutions in favor of having the pleasure of switching to another process, if only temporarily.

            At least DICE is consistent in that with every patch they break something new. :thumbsup:


            I mean, kudos to them for releasing a patch--a very substantial one, too--this long after the game's release. I sincerely salute them. :salute: But come on! How could this have not been caught during testing? Did any of the testers not once ever alt-tab out to jot down some bug or note something in some log that needed to be fixed?

                I think it's more likely they have a better system of documentation.

                In any case, how no one thought to test the process behavior when Alt-Tab'ing is beyond me.

                  Almost certainly they knew it was a problem but they just didn't consider it important enough to spend more time fixing. I think the main people that really need this function are server administrators running the admin software on the same PC they play on.

                    they had to keep the tradition of patches breaking something. can't break the streak now.

                      I've tested it on our tournament servers which have the highest level PB scan you can get and had no problems.
