Missing factory & rail icons

Gary Grigsby’s World at War is back with a whole new set of features. World at War: A World Divided still gives complete control over the production, research and military strategy for your side, but in this new updated version you’ll also be able to bring spies into the mix as well as neutral country diplomacy, variable political events and much more. Perhaps the largest item is the ability to play a special Soviet vs. Allies scenario that occurs after the end of World War II.

Missing factory & rail icons

Post by Garoad »

I the original WaW when hovering over a province it'd always show industry & rail "units", but I'm not seeing them in AWD at all. Am I missing something? How can you tell how much damage there is on rail or factories now?

My event videos aren't working either, so I'm wondering if there's some kind of install issue.

With Win 7 if I run the game in full screen mode I hear the video sound but don't get the images, if I play in window mod I get the videos correctly.
I do get the rails, factories and resource icons, unless hovering the mouse over an hidden because fow rules and not displayed by spies.

Hmm, I just re-installed the entire game to the DEFAULT directory, and now the icons work. Before I had it in a custom directory. Did you install to the default /Matrix Games directory? Maybe that's your issue. I also applied the latest patch after I installed this time. (Before the patch made no difference w/icons.)

Ok, the reinstall fixed the factory/rail/resource problem, but not the video. :( Also on Win 7, seems like a popular trend.

It's not a real problem after few games a lot of gamers disable videos. [;)]
