BETA Version

Post by jhilliardp61 »

Okay, like many I had the slow scroll problem with Windows 8. Thanks for all the suggestions and I fixed the problem after many attempts.

However, now that I am playing a new game, I have noticed a major problem. There is a little sliver of the desktop at the bottom of the screen. This happens to hide the manufacturing line when I pull up a city and I cannot access the buttons!

If I try to mouse over the bottom border and "drag it"down a grey title line pops out at the top which states "War in the Pacific - Admiral Edition (1.7.11.23r)". Then I cannot get rid of the top title bar.

My properties settings are: "C:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\Beta2\War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe" -w -pxf1366 -pyf768

I cannot use "f" in the settings because I get an error. Taskbar is on autohide. Smaller screen resolutions still have the same problem.

Anyone have an idea how to fix this problem?

[&o] Thanks a lot! It worked for me to. Now I am basically up to speed again, though I lost my prior game. Made it to March '44.... but now it is Dec 11, 1941. C'est la vie. Or should I say deja vouz?

i had the same problem (same os, screensize and error when using -f)...
my workaround is to click the WitP-AE icon in the taskbar, after launching the game. the game will minimize - i'll click the icon again and the game is in it's fullscreen glory (including the manufacturing line)! please try.

cheers!
chem!


I'm confused. How is he going to get "full screen glory" in windowed mode which he is forcing with the -w switch?
