How do I use the Windower?
What is true fullscreen?
How do I load plugins?
My Windower Crashes on load
My plugin Failed to load!
Did you place the plugin file in the Windower/plugins/ folder? ie: Windower/plugins/Recast.dll
Did your plugin come as a
.rar or
.zip file? If so, this is a compressed file that contains multiple files that need to be placed in your plugins folder. Please refer to
HOWTO: Extract Compressed Files
Is the plugin up-to-date for your version of Windower? A 3.26 plugin WILL NOT work for Windower 3.3 or higher!
I hear people talk about a plugin that I do not have! Where can I get it?
There are many plugins that are available but do not come stock with Windower. You may find a listing, with full documentation on how to use them at our
Plugins Listing.
Is there a list of commands to use?
My Windower will not load (Crashes on Play)!
I'm using Windower Lite and my controller stops working!
Windower Lite will not work properly for your controller and never will. If you need Controller support use
Windower 3.41 (Latest)
I get an error when running launcher and PlayOnline does not open!
Did you edit
launcher.ini and set your Language choice correctly?
I get an error when running launcher about sending settings to game!
My menus and game UI are gone/weird!
I don't want to use any plugins how do I get rid of them?
I need normal windower for gamma changes and using my controller, but I don't want plugins, how can I turn them off?
Go to Windower/scripts/
init.txt file, open it and find all the lines starting with '
load <pluginname>'. Edit them so they say '
//load <pluginname>' instead, save the changes to the file and open windower.
How do I login 2 accounts at the same time?
How do I use scripting?
Why is the command line in the windower console input line obscured by the data in the output window?
Why was my forum post locked or deleted shortly after making it?
Why are no developers replying to my topic?
Is there any way I can contact the developer team directly?
How can I make plugins for Windower?
You can't. The Windower Plugin
API is closed source and will never be released to the public. This is so we can keep windower a safe, and clean program away from hacks and bots.
I'm an experienced programmer, how can I join the team?
You can't. No matter how experienced BruceWillis3442 is at programming, trust is a major factor of people with access to the information. BruceWillis3442 isn't going to come out of nowhere and get on the team when noone in the community even knows who he is. Hanging out in
IRC 24/7 is a good way to get known in the event things DO change and more developers are brought onto the team.
How can I help out?
Answering peoples questions on the forums and joining
IRC and joining the
#Windower-Support channel and answering questions is a good way to help out!
My Launcher will only install Windower and will not load. Keeps asking me to Allow/Don't Allow before loading.
