Game Version: 1.12.2
This mod is a very simple addition to the game that will allow you to make your game run in borderless windowed instead of the default fullscreen available in Minecraft.
Advantages of borderless windowed versus default fullscreen
- You can just hit Escape and use your other monitors without minimizing the game
- You can alt+tab out of the game more smoothly
- You can have other windows on top of the Minecraft client when it's not active
Great! How do I use the mod ?
- Move the Minecraft window to the monitor you want to use for fullscreen.
- Then simply hit F11 (or the key you have keybound for fullscreen).
- That's it! You'll get a borderless windowed client!
Is this compatible with <Mod X>?
This mod uses Forge and should be compatible with all mods you're using! Just add it to your pack or mod folder and you're good to go.
I found a bug! HELP!
Please head over to the issue tracker if you found a bug in the mod so it gets fixed.
Can I use Fullscreen Windowed (Borderless) in my modpack?
You are free to include this mod in any modpack without my explicit permission. I would like to hear about it, just out of curiosity.
Will you be updating this mod to more recent versions? (A.T.O.P. the most recent version of Forge is 1.14.4)

Nice! Out of interest, is it possible to give this mod the ability to scale down the game's render resolution and then scale it back up (nearest neighbour interpolation?) to an appropriate resolution within the borderless window, using black for where the desktop would be? So, lower resolution for FPS but no impact on the actual size on screen.
It's a cool mod whatever you do, thanks for making it. I can finally alt-tab to Discord properly :D
Any plans on making it 1.13.2?
Thank god for this, I was getting so tired of having to rely on the always-crashing Borderless Gaming app (which also means I can close Steam)
Thank you!
Does this support 1.12.2?

I’ve tried it, and yes, it does.
Hey is there any plan or development going on for the newest versions of minecraft?
In reply to XpireMaximus:
This should work a treat with the joypad mod!
Any chance of getting this for 1.13.2?
I had a ripple when playing in full screen, but this mod fixed the problem. Thank!
P.S. Add to 1.10.2 plz
Hey, You said you were interested in usages of your mod in modpacks. Here's a Modpack I created that uses your mod. It's a Farming-oriented Modpack without technic stuff.
I've compiled a version that fixes window resizing after exiting fullscreen! You can find a download and further explanation here.
Credit for the fix goes to comp500.
Hi! I'm getting issues with fullscreen windowed on 1.8.9 and 1.7.10 since 1803 installed onto my pc do you know of the bug and or any fixes I can try?

Nice mod
This is an amazing mod, thank you. One small thing - it causes a few seconds of lag when the game first starts up. This is probably just some kind of side-effect of Java or something, but I figured I'd mention it just in-case. Either way, this is a godsend. Now I can record the window in 1080p without being unable to move my mouse between monitors.
only downside to this mod is that it is not perfect.
whenever i click out of the game it freezes for a second, flashs black once and then is back to normal.
same happend when i click into it.
