3079 is a futuristic, open-world action first-person role playing game. You arrive on a planet experiencing constant war. It is your duty to find out why the warring factions cannot find peace on their own & hopefully restore it yourself. All areas, buildings, items, quests and characters are randomly generated. You will find unique lands & challenges. I hope you enjoy it! "Just want to say again that this is a great game! For those of you who feel like its a minecraft copy just beacuse of the cube textures used you really need to rethink what a game is about! The game play of 3079 is nothing like minecraft it is pretty unique as well as how the weapons all have diffrent stats and colors kind of reminds me of Borderlands. However it is still an original idea for a game and i still play it from time to time. You should at least try the demo and if you like it please buy it and support fruit! :D Still give it a 9/10 ! Best Regards, Adam" -- SeaNanners Sequel @ 3089game.wordpress.com

Every time I try and run the game full-screen it would give the error from the title then run the process in the background with no display. The game work in windowed mode but that just annoying. I purchased the game for my brother as well and his run fine with full-screen. I already tried running ans admin and with windows 7 compatibility. Nothing seems to work and I am running out of ideas.

I have:
Intel Core i7-3930k cpu @ 3.2 GHz
64GB 1066 MHz RAM
256 500mb R/W SSD
2GB dedicated video,
NVidia GeForce GTX 660 Ti
Win 8 Pro
Java 7 u45

So I doubt its because I lack the resources. Any help would be appreciated

Have you tried running it in Windowed (non-fullscreen) mode? You may have to check the "Change Additional Video Settings" checkbox in the lower-right corner of the main menu. Also, when you try fullscreen, does it populate anything in the refresh-rate pulldown menu? It should say 50hz or 60hz...

If i do advanced options the game auto populates the following:
color depth 32 bpp
refresh rate 60hz
anti-aliasing disabled
1920 x 1080

The game will run in windowed mode every time regardless of these settings being changed in every resolution. Full-screen on the other hand will not run at all in any resolution

In any case i got use to the windowed screen, its just as a techy person I naturally want to solve things like this :P

I've had a few reports of this problem too... LWJGL & jMonkeyEngine handle creating the full-screen canvas, so something isn't right with that library and your configuration... I did build 3079 with the latest about 2 weeks ago, so I'm not sure what more I can do here, other than suggesting getting the latest drivers? :-/
