The planes I am using for the recon missions are not part of any squadrons transferred ( the transferred Squadron aircraft show as "0" available anyway once the transfer has been completed ).

Re: 1.06.59 "unofficial" update

simovitch ,

Ran EDBTR version 1.06.59 on my desktop PC with and without using DXwnd.

With compatability set to Win 7 and "run as administrator" set , using the game exe direct from the game file still gave the graphical glitch.

Using DXwnd with the same settings the graphical was still in ...

simovitch ,

Thanks for replying. I note your comments . I have tried with Roundals "ON" and the result is the same - when a movement occurs there is a trail left behind the icon which takes a moment to catch up with the the leader. This makes watching the action next to impossible. I don't know why ...

Mark ,

Thanks for your input. As you say there are so many tweaks to dxwnd I don't know which to use to try and solve my graphical problem. I will wait to see if simovitch sees my post and can help in any way.

EG. Size shown as 289/375 ( i have 86 spare hull spaces left to use if necessary )

However Crew Size is shown as 90/62 ( showing I can have a further 28 crew on board ...

Re: [1.0.2.1] CTD when zooming in or out

Same with me , CTD's when zooming in and out when using the mousewheel.

I have never had CTD's using the mousewheel before the current version.

Re: Resource percentages disagree

zgrssd,

Ok , thanks , I get it now - the new Mining location figures take into account the total of all resources within the MS radius , not just the single individual rock where the MS is built.
