Matrix Games Forums

I've just purchased Campaigns on the Danube, installed it and patched 2.1 and 2.2.

The screen is too big. Consequently its cut off on the right and the bottom. I cannot see the options bar on the right or the info sections on the bottom.

How do I fix this problem?

Thanks for your help.

You need to change the Resolution of your screen to 1024 by 768 pixels,
( it's proberly at 800 by 600 pixels ).

IE :- Start, Settings, Control Panel, Display, Settings, and move pointer @
bottom right towards more ( until 1024 by 768 is shown ). Click on Apply then OK then OK again in the smaller window ( new resolution ). Then load the game.

NB: Use the ESC key to exit the game.

Thanks. That fixed the problem. Is there a way to edit one of the game files so I don't need to change the display settings to run the game and then change the settings back when I'm finished with the game?

You also anticipated another question -- how to exit the game. Thanks for that answer.

Hi WP.

Glad you're sorted now. I'm afraid I don't have any idea how to do as you suggusted. I set up a shortcut direct to the "Display" area to speed things up a little. Just in case you get any further problems, see below from one of my earlier answers to a question re "Lockups". [8D]


Switch off the sound effects & music. I know it seems strange but it worked on mine ( where the lock up's occurred when clicking the next /end turn icon or during battle resolution ).

You can have the music etc. on whilst giving your orders etc. if you wish.
Just remember to disable/turn off before hitting that next/end turn button.
( I leave it off which is a shame because it's quite good. )
