Re: new update and GUI

After a bit of messing around I find a value of 1000 is great for the pop ups, which appear a good size and with a clear font, but it's no good because the writing/font in the unit details box becomes smudgy and messy. Don't know why that happens. It's like that with changes right up to the default ...

Thanks Alessandro. I'll mess around a bit and try it.

Thanks Alessandro. With your suggestion on my 2560x1440 screen I get this....

I post so people can see what it looks like.

I feel the font is a little too small to be comfortable. There's no setting to change to increase it just a tiny bit?

Re: new update and GUI

So via the use of the developer interface switch in the ini file I managed to reduce the bottom bar. But in the shot below the pop ups are set to zero. No way to reduce the pop up size? Or even just disable them? Thanks.

Re: new update and GUI

bump

Anyone else see this, I wonder? That changing, for example, the pop up size setting in advanced prefs makes no difference at all now? Or forcing lo res graphics?

Re: new update and GUI

Obviously, each time I changed the prefs I closed the game then restarted it. Yep. The prefs changes make no diff.

This is without lo res art enforced and pop up size 2. Exactly the same, no?

Re: new update and GUI

I did a clean install. Uninstalled from windows, wiped the directory and installed from fresh. On a 2560x1440 screen with windows selected, the correct resolution selected, force lo res graphics and then the pop ups at 0, it looks like this. So the bottom bar, in particular, is taking up a ...

Re: new update and GUI

The one before the last beta, I think. Should I just do a clean install? I'll try that. That would be the set up exe followed ONLY by the very latest update, right?

new update and GUI

So with the update that's in there in the member's area dated today (53.01) I seem to have lost all the GUI resizing options. No messing around with any of the preferences changes the GUI. Used to be that by selecting 0 pop size and windowed plus force low res graphics I could reduce the size of the ...

Re: Graphic issues

Yes, but - on my machines, at least, niether settings 1 or 2 do any reductionat all, only setting 0 works to make these areas smaller, and - as I posted above - using this causes a ship art graphic glitch. But thanks.

Re: Graphic issues

Well, after a lot of messing around I've found that the switch that is responsible for messing up the ship graphics as posted above is the '2xpopup size' switch. Setting it to zero produces the graphics glitch with the ship pictures. The graphics are ok if it's set to 1 or 2. Unfortunately, setting ...

Re: Graphic issues



I'm having a lot of graphics problems with the game. First, it froze on the start menu, so I uninstalled and reinstalled it.

Now, when I look at a ship's profile, the image is static, and there's a line underneath it that moves. And when I try to view an aircraft's profile, a completely black ...

Graphics issues again

Is a fix being worked on for this? I have seen that others have posted about it. I get it no matter what I do, whether I force low resolution graphics, set up the ini file and use that, change resolution, whatever, the images are static, unanimated, beneath them this animated little strip of lost ...

Re: How many of you like me?

Very odd that Matrix have released it this way with virtually no tutorial material available at release and everyone who hasn't a clue about the system now waiting for that material to be drip fed out.

Separately, the price point seems curiously low, lol, given how much WitE2 and WitPAE cost. I ...

Re: Hexes

It's a beautiful map, by the way. And it's simply incredible to try playing something that looks a little like WitP at 2560x1440 and be actually able to see everything!
