HELP MENU NOT DISPLAYING

Post by javanabal »

Hello

I just started playing the game under windows 7 with no problems BUT:

When I press F1 to F5 keys (or clicking on the commands in the help menu) in-game, I don't access (units help, parameters and so on).
Can someone help me fixing that?

Thank you

You can find all the unit information by utilizing the JTCS Unit View. You can find it under Start --> Program Files --> Matrix Games --> John Tillers Campaign Series --> JTCS Unit Viewer.

Assuming you have the 1.04 UPDATE installed.

Press M to access the Menu along the top
Press U for the Unit Display bar

'In Vista™ if you experience an issue with the scrolling refresh during the game please go to the Properties of each shortcut and put a check in the box next to “Disable desktop composition” to resolve this issue'.

Hope that helps
