Install & use
Copy your game's folder contents next to its EXE, then double-click a Display - *.cmd (or run the .ps1). -Status shows the current state; -Revert undoes everything.
X-Men Legends II — copy XML2/ next to XMen2.exe
Requires dgVoodoo2 already in the game folder (the usual modern-PC fix; most community builds include it).
Shortcut Result
Display - Windowed.cmd Titled, centered, movable 1280×720 window
Display - Borderless Fullscreen.cmd Fills the monitor, no border, Alt-Tab friendly
Display - Exclusive Fullscreen.cmd True exclusive fullscreen
.\XML2_Display_Mode.ps1 -Status
.\XML2_Display_Mode.ps1 -Mode windowed -Width 1600 -Height 900
.\XML2_Display_Mode.ps1 -Mode borderless
.\XML2_Display_Mode.ps1 -AddMenuResolutions 1920x1080,2560x1440 # add modes to the in-game menu
.\XML2_Display_Mode.ps1 -Revert
Marvel Ultimate Alliance — copy MUA/ next to Game.exe
Native D3D9, no dgVoodoo. Use -Launch (the shortcuts already do) so the script can size/center the window after the game opens:
Shortcut Result
Display - Borderless Fullscreen.cmd Desktop-res borderless, fills the screen, Alt-Tab friendly
Display - Windowed.cmd Titled, centered 1280×720 window (recommended for the steadiest behavior)
Display - Exclusive Fullscreen.cmd Stock exclusive fullscreen
.\MUA_Display_Mode.ps1 -Status
.\MUA_Display_Mode.ps1 -Mode windowed -Launch
.\MUA_Display_Mode.ps1 -Mode borderless -Launch
.\MUA_Display_Mode.ps1 -Revert
If PowerShell blocks a script, the .cmd shortcuts already bypass that; or run powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\<script>.ps1 ....
