ATS freezes when ALT+TAB

[EramsorGR]

Hi there, recently I have been trying to play ATSmp and whenever I alt tab to check my Discord or map or whatever, the game just freezes there. My temporary solution is to not ALT+TAB at all, but is there any permanent solution to solve this?

Good morning @EramsorGR,

I had that problem and to solve it I put the game in window mode and now works perfectly.

Greetings.

Hello there!
 

This problem caused by the new DirectX11 update. There are a few possible solutions to fix that problem.
 

1st Solution: Using game in OpenGL
 

> Go to your steam App
> Go to the library
> Go to ETS2/ATS
> Click "Play" 
> Choose "Launch with OpenGL (64-bit). Make sure you chose 64 bit.
> Start ETS2/ATS
> Choose your profile and press "drive"
> Close ETS2/ATS
> Start TruckersMP as admin. TruckersMP will start with OpenGL for all time. Except you change it again.
 

2nd Solution: Play in windowed mode
 

When you go to ETS2/ATS Settings -> Graphics, you need to remove the tick from Fullscreen mode. 

Because ETS2/ATS don't support Borderless Windowed Mode, you need to use a 3rd party app for that, called Borderless Gaming.
You can download here: https://github.com/Codeusa/Borderless-Gaming/releases

After you installed and launched the app, launch TMP and move the app with the right arrow to the Favorites category. (Not the TruckersMP Launcher, you need to move "Euro Truck Simulator 2 Multiplayer" window in the app.)
