Game opens w patch but can't click to get past opening screen

Post by eagle4now »

Hi.
Love Matrix games, bought many over the years... Was playing armada game, until the latest patch and the GUI updates. but since the updates, no longer can get past the opening screen, once the galaxy loads up and the game is loaded.... ie. it loads, gets to the start of the scenario page, and then no matter how i click, be it left mouse, right mouse, enter key, escape key, return, etc, won't close the opening menu button. in short, i can no longer get past this screen, where before the update i had no problems with this..... i notice no one else seems to have this problem... so wondering, if there is a simple fix i am missing somewhere???
Oh, big fan of Pz cmd series from here, as well as gary grisbys world at war, and forge of freedom too....

Gday
frustrating when updates kill your instalation
I would sugest that maybe one of the update files is corrupt
have you tried re downloading the patch and installing ?

Hi.... Thanks for replying so quickly! yeah, I've downloaded the patch twice.... I was thinking of removing the game, then doing a complete reinstall, then do the patch again and see if that works....
thanks for the quick reply!!!

Did a quick search
one person fixed his problem by updating direct x 9 ?

I had a problem with another game from matrix, it was the launcher screen ...when i started the game from the game icon within the instalation folder it worked

A couple of people have reported similar problems over the months, but I've really no idea what the problem is. If you find a solution let me know.
If not, I'll put something in the next update to stop this dialog coming up.
