Help Pls

So I got the Origin Version of the game and when in the game I can't use livesplit for some reason even with global hot keys. Anyone have any idea on how I can fix it?

Or is there a Autosplit for this game I can download

I'd say do runs without a timer and time them later if you think it was fast until you can find a fix/different version.

Damn, I didn't even know that there was an origin version out there. Have you tried running it on windowed mode? That fixes livesplit problems 90% of the times. If that doesn't work or you want to play fullscreen, use a second monitor or a screen mirroring app and livesplit should work.

ps: an autosplitter for this game would be sooooo awesome

@BostonBrew, I am currently doing some runs, where I have to Alt + Tab during the loading sections to split without losing much time inbetween menuing. I have yet to find a proper fix.

@dema77_, Yeah It's pretty okay, the only problem is, there's no windowed mode. Since the game is so old Im assuming it would require a mod of some sort. I checked all the options and the only thing on there is aspect ratio, but no matter which on i choose nothing changes, it still automatically goes full screen sadly. For some reason during the full screen it doesnt allow me actively use other processes in the background. (ie livesplit.)

Hmm, do you have any of screen mirroring app to suggest? I've never used that before. Also I am using a second monitor but sadly still has the same issue.

ye pls.

Thanks for the responses!

there is a windowed mode for the game in all versions. In origin I'm not sure what it's called but on the disk and steam versions there's command line switch /win - I can't look at it until later though.

Edit: Yeah if the game is installed, go to your games library, click on the game, then the gear icon. There should be "General" "Cloud Saves" and "Advanced Launch Options". Under Launch options is the command line arguments.
