Add support for Fullscreen

In my opinion, the decision is quite pointless. There seems to be no good reason to remove this in the first place. Exclusive fullscreen is a necessity in many fast-paced games on the platform.

Additional statement- if I recall, Alt + Enter was originally supported with no need to modify the FFlag. Anyone could Alt + Enter to get true fullscreen. Does anyone know the particular reason why Alt + Enter was removed? Would it be possible for roblox to just readd the FFlag back with the correct settings where anyone could do true fullscreen? Adding the FFlag would be a direct buff to the performance including higher FPS and reduced input delay.

God please yes. Fullscreen has so many advantages over Windowed. Borderless Windowed is not Fullscreen, Roblox.

It does affect preformance if there’s hundreds to thousands of (especially high definition) textures in a game.

In general that’s in Roblox’s/the developer’s court to downscale and unload textures to be more optimized for their games. Unless you have very little VRAM to the point where your GPU must load resources into system RAM, then this won’t really have a large performance impact, but if it does, then I want to see some comparisons.

It’s sad Roblox removed this feature without even thinking once how useful it is and necessary on Roblox Hopefully Roblox add this feature back in the next update.

Since all the discussion here I will add the feature back. Should be in a production release by next week (or at the latest the week after)

Thanks, you’re really the light at the end of the tunnel.

Anyways, I don’t understand why the community has to grasp at straws to get a feature added back (literally milliseconds worth of dev time as it was once a thing), let alone noticed by staff, it genuinely perplexes me.

But when someone flags a post for the most miniscule rule break, y’all be like:
