Thanks for the reply Retro yes works just very small box

OK. Just wanted to eliminate it being a rom/emulator issue.

I do not use the launcher file. In Launchbox I just added a second Demul emulator and called it Demul Hikaru (it points to the same demul exe as the other systems use). That way I can use an AHK to send Alt+F4 after the game launches to send it to fullscreen.

Here you go. The timing "9500" can be adjust slower or faster. I think that is set at that time from something I was testing. You can reduce it to 5500

Normally the code is written without the {Alt Up} at the end but I have seen without this sometimes Pause Menu will not work.

Sorry to bump a thread from January but I'm at my wits end on this. I had it working fullscreen the other day. Then I try it today and its a small box again. I have the AHK script mentioned above in Launchbox. I've also tried HikaruFullScreen, and I've even tried both the script and HikaruFullscreen together. The game launches and it refreshes like it wants to go fullscreen then I get a black screen, but then it goes back to small box. The other day I think I messed with DPI settings for demul.exe to get it to work but today I've tried to mess with them for hours and I can't get it to work.  I think it's something with my graphics card or something but again I had it working the other day why it changed and didn't work today no clue. Is there certain settings in Demul I need to make it go fullscreen? I've clicked start fullscreen and unclicked it both in Demul and it didn't help. I've changed the resolution in Demul it didn't help. Someone please help.

 

Also the few times I've been able to make it stay fullscreen it just freezes.

If anyone gets some error, here is a command line for AHK to set autofulscreen and exit easily from the games with "ESC" button:

Sleep, 9500
Send {Alt Down}{Enter}{Enter Up}{Alt Up}

; This section closes Demul when pressing Escape
$Esc::
{
    Send !{F4}
}

This works too but faster:

Sleep, 3500
Send {Alt Down}{Enter}{Enter Up}{Alt Up}

; This section closes Demul when pressing Escape
$Esc::
{
    Send !{F4}
}
