Author Content Date
Hiya,

I have just bought a new Asus Laptop; with an AMD Elite Quad-Core, Radeon HD 8670M 2GB Graphics, 8 GB Ram and 1 TB HDD.

The game works fine in full screen mode, as long as i dont alt and tab out of the game, but for some reason windowed mode in unplayable.

All i have is a black and purple screen on logging in.

Can any1 help?

Hey mate,

I don't know exactly what happened with me, I can't remember.

But I had some awful problems with windowed mode.

Message Rare/Sybertooth.

They both helped and sorted me out in about 10 minutes!

Go to c/mythofsoma and in their you will find soma window.exe or Somthing like that, right click it and manually change to launch in 16bit through this, when you load windowed through launcher this will make it work ok

If I use somadevlauncher.exe and select window mode it works fine.

I remember there was an issue when the launcher was buggy and you could select somafull.exe or somawindow.exe and if you select window.exe it would be purple.

Are you using the somadevlauncher?
