Attack odds not showing

Post by Davidt »

HI,

My mainform display seems to be cut off so that I cannot see the attack odds.
It is not possible to drag the main form so that the bottom of the form is shown.

Anyone know how to tweak this so the main form can display attack odds?

The screenshot shows an example where the attack odds for the german attack on the polish units is not shown.

You have the wrong font size for the Windows fonts (> 100%). MWiF is designed to use the standard Windows font size. To quote from the MWiF readme:
Windows font size needs to be set to 100%. When it is set to larger sizes, MWIF displays many of the forms incorrectly and the game is unplayable.

On Windows 7 right click on your desktop. Pick "Display" in the left column. You will get a window that says "Make it easier to read what's on your screen". There will be three radio buttons. Pick "Smaller - 100% (default)", and then "Apply". MWiF will then work.
I thought I knew how to play this game....
