Taking Chemkid's map I was playing around with making an old fashioned crumbled map look. It's a work in progress, but if there is interest I will finish it. Will add roads and other details, but keep it looking like something old.

I'm playing around with taking Chemkid's map a step further to look like an old map. Anyone interested? It's currently a work in progress. Will make available if there's interest.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: sPzAbt653<br/> <br/> I think it has to do with all the different screen resolutions. I use 1024 x 1280 and often I must hit the bottom of a button to get it to work. It might help is you guys report what resolutions you are using. <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> <br/> <br/...

<t> Is there a way in the Editor (I'm making a new scenario) that lets the players select their starting positions/deployment of units on a map?<br/> <br/> Ideally I would want Player 1 to select their starting positions based on unit list, and then allow Player 2 to setup. <br/> <br/> OR, should I ...

Yep it's been that way since release. No fixes yet.

Not seeing that happen on say a town or woods graphics. It doesn't fill up the entire hex. You have to do that manually. I could have sworn auto contouring off used to do that, sadly I don't have TOAW 3 loaded anymore.

In editor, the idea behind turning off auto contouring was to paint the entire hex the terrain.

Sadly, turning off auto contouring in a new scenario map I am designing does nothing.

<t> A fire team is typically 4 soldiers.<br/> <br/> 2-3 Fire teams + squad leader for SQUAD (9-13 soldiers)<br/> <br/> 2-3 (sometimes more) SQUADS per PLATOON (18-39 soldiers + platoon leader + possible support - you can have about 20-50 men)<br/> <br/> 2 or more platoons per COMPANY (about 100-250 ...

<t> Terrific. <br/> <br/> With every attempt to play or create a scenario or read a thread I learn more and more about this unfinished game which I paid $65 for the CD and shipping (bad idea). <br/> <br/> How does none of this get tested? Years and years in the making and testing, and per response h...

Amazing.

Editor broken??

Please patch. $65 for an unfinished game is not funny. Not anymore.

Another miss in testing.

I just saw that too. Another "glitch".

I smell a patch coming.

Why wasn't any of this caught in the 5+ years of development and testing?

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: ralphtrick<br/> <br/> There's an option for tooltip delay, set it to a very large number. Can you also post your dxdiag and someone will take a look at it.<br/> <br/> It's probably a video driver issue. The tooltips are the only thing that uses something called GDI...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Lobster<br/> <br/> For the time just do as Meyer says. Start a scenario, not in the editor. Click on Play in the menu bar at top. Then click on Player Options. Set tool tip to 100000 for the Tool Tip Show and 1 for Tool Tip Hide. <br/> <br/> Personally I'd like a w...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Meyer1<br/> <br/> Sounds like is related to the "tooltip". I guess you could set it to never show up, but shouldn`t be doing this to your game. It´s only on the editor?<br/> <br/> When installed IV the game make me to install Dx, and I already had III installed and...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: sPzAbt653<br/> <br/> I have also reported this as a glitch. Hopefully it makes it into a patch soon.

To the designers of the new and improved interface and graphics. KUDOS for a well done achievement.

If only more terrains could have been added...

<r> If I leave the mouse cursor idle for a few seconds on the map it creates a black box that is approx 5x12 hexes in size. If I move the mouse to another map location it draws yet again another black box. They seem to only go away when I move the mouse cursor over to the right side panel. <br/> <br...

<t> I deleted the intro music. Go to the folder where the game files are. You can right click the game icon and select the "open file location" and look for the theme music (I think that is what it was called) - it has a file extension of .ogg, and just delete that. Then like stated above lower the ...

There isn't a way to deselect all units that I know of, it's never come up.

Then it wasn't tested properly.
