Borderless Window

[Agent_TBC]

If anybody ever figures out how to run BE in Borderless Window mode I will sacrifice three goats and a chicken in your honor. I need it.

Tell me about it. I'm playing in a window and I have to move my taskbar to my other screen before loading the game. It's not a proper 1920x1080 window either...

Run in full screen mode inside a VM?

How about with just running full screen and set the option to never bind the mouse in your options?
Does that about do what you want?

For me a key feature is being able to switch to a browser window and other applications quickly. It's possible in full screen mode, but takes some time.

I found this WindowedBorderlessGaming in the Steam groups. People say it works for Civ 5, but I haven't yet figured out how to make it work with BE. Currently, when in borderless mode, my mouse position is slightly off from where it shows on the screen.
I asked if anyone has an idea, but so far nothing.

How do you minimize to desktop when in full screen mode?

I have used the windows version to date and have to click on the lower right corner to go to desktop, but would prefer full screen.

I also use the borderless windows launch option, but it doesn't seem to work the same as in civ 5. Try it (but do it EXACTLY as shown): "(space)-windows(space)-noborder".
