Always Sometimes Monsters -How to Enable Fullscreen Mode

The best way to make sure the game runs in full-screen.

Контекст

When I first started playing this game, it loaded up in a very small window. I then tried to make it run in full-screen by pressing Alt+Enter and it worked well except the game was still in 4:3. Assuming I could get it to run in 16:9, and since the main menu suggests it, I tried pressing F5 and F6 to see what it would do. And it actually made things worse.

The game now looked like this on my monitor and no matter how much I pressed F5 or F6, it wouldn’t go back to its previous and correct configuration:

Как оказалось, there’s no way to run this game in 16:9. It was made to run in 4:3. Но, quite frankly, you shouldn’t let that technicality deter you from playing it as it is a pretty cool experience.

In order to fix any issue you might have when trying to run Always Sometimes Monsters in all its 4:3 full-screen glory, you need to do the following :

1. Найдите файл “Game.ini” in the installation folder of the game.

The exact location of your Steam folder may vary, depending on where you installed it on your computer. В Windows, by default it should be in “С:\Программные файлы (х86)\” но опять же, maybe you chose to put it somewhere else (Different drive, different folder…).

Once you’ve located it follows this path to find the file “Game.ini”

Steam\SteamApps\common\Always Sometimes Monsters

2. Редактировать файл “Game.ini” с блокнотом

Открыть файл “Game.ini” by right-clicking it and then choosing to open it with Notepad.

In Notepad, edit these three lines under the category “[ASM-Screen]”

[ASM-Screen]
Fullscreen=1
FullscreenRatio=0
WindowedRatio=1

После завершения, сохраните и закройте файл.

3. Making sure these parameters stay that way

After closing the file “Game.ini”, right-click it again and choose “Характеристики”. This will open a new window on the bottom of which you will find the attributes of the file “Game.ini”. Проверить “Только чтение” box then click on “Применять” и “ХОРОШО”. This will ensure no further modifications can be made to this file by either the game or yourself. If you ever need to modify that file again, just go back and uncheck that “Только чтение” коробка.
