Did someone get Livesplit in Fullscreen mode or it just run in windowed mode ?

Fullscreen/windowed doesn't really apply to an application like this. It's only in one state, you can change the layout of Livesplit by right clicking the application and clicking edit layout. I'm really not sure what you're trying to achieve by making Livesplit fullscreen?

I guess he means livesplit running in front of the game with the game in fullscreen mode. I personally could not make it work and am playing with the game in windowed mode, even though it bothers me slightly.

I don't have a second monitor but I use my smartphone as a second screen via "spacedesk" for LiveSplit and Twitch Chat. Maybe give that a shot.

Thanks for the answers guys. Firstly, sorry for my english, i misspoken... Like Oizo said, i meant, use livesplit when the game is in fullscreen mode :) So if i understood correctly, the problem would come from dual screen ?

That would correct the issue yes, if you want to use Livesplit directly over the game like you're asking you have a couple choices

  1. Simply play in windowed mode
  2. Use this application (I use it, and I know it works for this game): http://store.steampowered.com/app/388080/Borderless_Gaming/ There's a free version on their github, but I would recommend supporting the devs because this application is one of my favorites.

Right click on LiveSplit > Edit Layout ... > Layout Settings. Then select the Always On Top Setting. Should keep it over the game unless there's no Borderless Windowed Mode in which case as Phantom said Borderless Gaming to enable that

Oh I wouldn't recommend this game's borderless windowed though, it's not real bordlerless windowed. It will slow down once you've clicked out of game and has a small blip when clicking back in, as if it was fullscreen....which is why I did not recommend it.

Ok, I will try by disabling the second screen...

Even if my second screen is disabled Livesplit don t stay over the game ... However "Always on top" is selected in layout settings...
