I'm tired of playing it in full screen for one reason, if you use cntrl+alt+delt to minize the screen instead of shutting it off, you'll get video/sound stalls for like the next three hours of gameplay. I can't paly this in full screen, but I don't see any choice for a minimized screen format. Please someone help me, I want to play and talk to friends at the same time without hearing the music screw up every ten seconds.

This one's easy. If you're using the 183 build (The one I recommended when you got that triforce room bug) you should be able to open up your programs list, select the Zelda Classic folder, and choose a not-full-screen version of ZC instead. (Small screen, large screen, or full-screen)

You only have a few choices on size, so you can't fine-tune, but is quite handy for using a messenger while you play. It's what I use. In fact, the only thing that would make the 183 absolutely perfect would be if they fixed that map bug. As it stands I have to use my map in moderation, which is challenging, but not particularly fun.

But it is certainly awesome bugs withstanding.

LegendarySlash, please use the "edit" button to edit your last post instead of posting multiple times in a row, as it is against the rules here. ;)

You can change the size of the screen with command line options passed to zelda-w.exe

Unless your desktop resoultion is 800x600 or less, I recommend

"zelda-w.exe" -windowed -res 512 448 big

otherwise

"zelda-w.exe" -windowed -res 320 240

Yeah, I should mention that the " -windowed " tag works for builds 184, 183, 182, and 163.
