one thing bad about my comp (or maybe its a sro bug) i'll be out grinding... minding my own buissness... i wont click anything and then all of a sudden SRO disapears. i'll try to log back on and it says i'm still logged on >< then i have to wait like an hour to get back on and i come back dead.... >.<
this is becouse the process is still up on your computer, so it's still connected to the server (that's also why you die, cuz your char runs into some agro mobs and get killed)
but the solution to be able to logg back on, is: press CTRL + alt + delete, and close the process there.
I was just thinking about this... Like you said, the sro_client.exe process is still running at that point, even though the actual game screen is gone. I wonder if it would be possible to issue some command on the commandline or something to spawn another in-game screen to get yourself back up and running.
Similarly, you could develop an application, write some code to completely hide the main window, and have some function available to bring that window back. With Windows applications, there is an ID for each window in the application, and you can often send messages to those windows programatically (to minimize them, resize them, hide them, etc). I don't know if full-screen applications have a similar thing or not.
Just food for thought.
