Full screen in Black Shades?

I actually grabbed it off of Portage, and when I run it, it opens in windowed mode which makes it almost impossible to play, since I can't rotate 360 degrees with the mouse (since the cursor leaves the window).

Is there a config file somewhere?

You should be able to rotate 360 degrees even in windowed mode (Which doesn't exist) since when the cursor moves into a rather large band around the edge of the screen it resets to the center…

This band is bugged in classic though, so that could cause problems if you're running it in classic or on a new machine(?) running it with windows or linux.

Just my two cents.

Running it in Linux. As I said, I grabbed it from portage, so maybe the package was compiled wrong or something. I'll see what I can do.

Oh, and I'm not even sure what mode it runs in... It made a link as "blackshades"

Well, I highly recommend that you download it again from Wolfire, if you haven't already done so.
