bug in windowed mode...

Hi there is a graphics error when the game is played in windowed mode. When ever there is Air Combat, the planes show up over the sea grid, and the text in black just keeps over writing it self. It doesn't have the sky backgrounds like the non windows version does.

Thank you.

I have something similar : on air combat no top sides planes are shown in windowed mode in air combat. but only if I swap windows while running. sometimes this happend in witp as well but not so often. on AE it seems to come more often.

Tip for preventing this : Do not swap between other programs so ofen when playing in windowed mode. I think if you use another big task like the editor while running AE always triggers this while swapping to a browser doesnt.

honestly, maybe abug, maybe not but I certainly dont care at all.

Ok, yeah swapping while in Windowed mode could cause issues. That's why Full Screen is the default mode. With that said, I've played on my dual monitor system with Windowed Mode up in one screen and other apps in another for hours without an issue (nVidia GeForce 7600, latest drivers).
