PureSim requires IE6 or later to run correctly. All you need to do is install it, you don't have to use it as your Web browser or anything.

Actually I was wrong. That message should only come up if you have a version of IE less than 6. My guess is you at least have IE6 on your machine. I fixed it for the final release.

Sorry about that

RC4 fixes the "display cutoff" issue from before. I use a default 1024*768 screen setup, and the game now looks perfect. [:D]

Understood, KG, but I'm referring to the "forcing" of the screen res to 1024 x 768 from my default, which is 1152 x 864. When I fired PS up, screen res would go to 1024 x 768 automatically. When I would quit the game, screen res automatically went back to my default. With this, I could play a full screen game without having to manually tweak my display settings. Now, if I stay at 1152 x 864, PS shows up in a window that can't be sized, and I lose a fair amount of on-screen real estate. V1.72 offered a choice of forced 1024 x 768 or "Windowed" mode, and this option is no longer available in the freeware.

I'm having this issue, as well. My standard resolution is 1366x768 widescreen. I'm losing the bottom of the display. Is the option to set graphics settings no longer available? I would like to force it into full screen mode but I don't see that option any more. I am in the middle of downloading 1.75 so maybe that will fix it.

Is it safe yet to upgrade to IE 8? In prior versions of Puresim you would lose the onscreen ball graphics after upgrading to IE8.

Wraithchild ...

On my pc, I have IE 8, I didn't see or experience the problem with on screen ball graphic ... It may be that I used the Game Booster 1.00 ... other than that ... the 1.75 seems to be running smoothly including the crop off ...

O boy ... O boy ... Aren't we having fun!! ... by the way, that is an excellent idea about having a save spot in the middle of the game - one never know if your boss may walk in [:D]

That's why I run it in windowed mode in my office. ;

[Wrathchild]

Well, even the current release doesn't let me run the game in where I can see the bottom of the screen. It looks like Puresim is off the table for me now at the moment. [:(]

Can you try running in 1024x768?

I did try that, but this is a widescreen display, so when I set the desktop resolution to 1024x768 it makes it completely distorted. I think if I actually increase my screen resolution I will be able to fit the Puresim window in the display area. Let me give that a try.

Ugh. 768 is my maximum vertical display resolution, so I can't make any more room. So what happens is when Puresim itself has a 1024x768 resolution and runs in a window, the extra space taken up by the Windows title bar pushes it too far off the bottom of the screen. I'm going to keep experimenting, though.

[Wrathchild]

Actually, there is not Windows title bar. I found an easy solution, though. Since Puresim's horizontal real estate is only 1024, I simply dragged my Windows task bar to the side instead of the bottom. Now Puresim fits in perfectly vertically.

... Funny, My Window Task bar is on the right side of the screen as well ... Never thought about the task bar creating a problem for you and others ... You could also click Task bar menu and click "auto-hide the task bar" as well ... anyway, it's good to hear you found the solution to cont to enjoy the game

Can you try running in 1024x768?

Shaun, the point is that it runs fine in 1024 x 768, but I use a higher screen res, 1152 x 864. This never used to be a problem, because PS would force the 1024 x 768 setting for me. Now the option for that setting has been removed. I'd sure like to see it back again. I know I can can change screen res myself, but I really don't want to have to do that every time I start the game. Call me spoiled...

The other issue for me is that the scoreboard cannot be moved from the top of the screen. I go into "Configure PSPNcast," move it to the bottom of the screen where I want it, save the change, and when I sim a game it's still at the top. How can I get it to move?

Because of the screen res and the scoreboard issue, I'm going to roll back to the previous version, at least for now.

Just installing PureSim Baseball 2007 again, and have installed RC4. Am running MS Vista 64-bit. Keep on getting the dialog box / error message:

Unexpected error; quitting.

Is PSB 2007 supposed to work with Vista 64-bit edition?

Should run fine, make sure you set the shortcut to "Run As Administrator"

That did the trick - thank you!
