Hello all,

Ive started to play ET again occasionaly and Ive got a problem with minimizing it. Now im using my toshiba laptop and and whatever minimizer ive found online didnt work for me. Im using windows 7.

So if you have simple minimizer for ET that works, please share it with me, it will be much easier to play the game...

Thanks in advance!

You might want to try out the TrackBase Minimizer (http://et.trackbase.net/downloads/i9/) then.
It's got problems with reinstantiating screen resolution when minimizing, afaik, but it does it's job.

P.S.: As an extra, if you're interested, you can enable/disable your rating in-game easily with it.

So what was the exact issue with this one, except your av?
An untidy but still working solution would be to use ALT+Enter or use window mode directly, requires no problem, so shouldn't bring any issues.
But obviously not quite nice. :/

Well, the AV might be the reason why it's loading. I guess the connection to our servers is blocked.
It's your choice if you want to set an exception for that program and allow it, the program works fine, though.
In any other case, if there's no other minimizer, it's best to use the good old Windows command :|

Tried that Jay, still nothing, but your minimizer which you got integrated in ur server menu works perfectly, do you think you can share that minimizer with me?

Thx

that minimize is working at any jaymod-enhmod, nitmod and etjump servers. (maybe more mods). in console /minimize
I just made a button on esc menu.

BUTTON( 6, 104, WINDOW_WIDTH-12, 18, "^dMinimize the Game", .3, 14, close ingame_main ; exec "minimize" )
