i changed my settings from 1920*1080 to 1680*1050 and it works. But I have to change everytime I play. Is it possible to make a program edit that only change when I play the game.

At one point back with v1.21.02 I changed the default resolution from 1024x768 to the more popular 1366x768. While it worked fine on wide-screen monitors, we noted some problems on older laptop displays. Once I get done with this version and release, I'd like to swing back to this issue and implement at least a check between those two resolutions and to use the wide-screen if available.

However, I note that I'm also using 1920x1080 for my screen resolution and the game runs fine. So in your case I suspect another issue, and whatever you had checked in your properties may be causing problems? You should be able to run the game fine in 1920x1080.

Time for a quick update.  Except for some PBEM issues, the public beta appears stable.  So I am going to proceed with preparing the package for making v1.21.04 an official update.  I should get that to Matrix next week and hopefully it we'll get it released in early April sometime.
 
I want to get on with migrating the code to the new compiler so that hopefully the game runs better under Windows 10 and I can resolve those PBEM issues and other data issues.  And get on with more bug fixes and game enhancements.
