I actually resolved mine by manually editing the user.setting file. Thanks!
I have a Westinghouse L2410NM 24" widescreen monitor that I've been playing Entrenchment on at 1920x1200. After reinstalling SoaSE and Entrenchment upon the official release, 1920x1200 is no longer an option on the resolutions screen. 1440x900 is now the largest resolution I can select. Any thoughts on why this would have changed upon moving from beta to release?
I can add Messenger to the exclusion list, and it correctly doesn't do the WindowsFX effects on the window, but the problem stays. The problem stays even if I unload WindowBlinds completely. The only way to get rid of it appears to be to uninstall WindowFX.
This is a little tough to explain, so I'll include pictures. Windows Live Messenger 8.0 (Build 8.0.0812.00) has a feature that allows you to hide the menu bar. When I have that enabled, my Messenger windows, seemingly randomly, develop an extended top bar where the menu bar used to be. If I move my mouse anywhere on that area, the cursor becomes the vertical double-arrow for stretching the window size. It's as if WindowFX only partially recognizes that the window isn't as big as it thinks it
I'm also on WB5 and since I started with WB3 Remote Desktop windows have always behaved this way for me.
Thanks Yarlen...you are the man. But you know this, you wily former EiC.
I have 2 copies of GC2. One is a Preorder CD (w/ Serial #) and one is just a download Serial # that I got for some help with some TG testing I did awhile back. Is there any way to transfer that second serial # to a friend's Stardock account? I searched the forums, but didn't see anything. I also have a ticket in, but I know these guys are exceptionally busy right now so I don't expect a quick answer. I was hoping someone else might know if there's
My biggest complaints with the game are that it's completely unfun and ugly as sin. Beyond that, someone wake up the parents!
What the heck! Everyone came over here and didn't bother to tell me.
ooo..misspelling "compliment" threw me :( ~SDC~
Sorry, no. I realize this was a known issue that was *reportedly* fixed, but I'm here to say that it wasn't (hence the "this bug hasn't gone away" comment). This was not a saved game from pre-1.03. This was a brand new game, begun under 1.03A.057. ~SDC~
As much fun as this is, I'm sure it's not supposed to happen. ~SDC~
Well, this bug still hasn't gone away. While in the heat of battle (ok, in the heat of getting my ass kicked), a turn will end and suddenly I'll be on the planet screen of one of my enemies colonies. From there I can go to Details and Destroy Colony. Then I'm automatically taken to one of his other colonies. Wash, rinse, repeat through at least 5 of his colonies. And I'm not even using destabilize or espionage. ;) ~SDC~
On the flip side: I had a system defect from my empire, and suddenly I went from ~0 bc to 10,000 bc! I'm sure there's a reason for it, but I sure don't get it. :)
Forgot to list it? Like you have anything better to think about! :) :) :) As always, a big thanks.
Hmm...I was under the mistaken impression that duplicate wonders was going to be fixed in this revision.
I'm in the U.S. I just got mine last week; ordered on day 1. ~SDC~

Bleh...GalCiv *IS* crack
Isn't it standard behavior for an app (a game, anyway) to stop running when you've relegated it to the background?
Why not? Colleges do. :) ~SDC~
If you right-click on GalCiv and select Archive, you should have the option to archive the game at its current state (1.02.042 if you did it right now) or archive it with all extra files (multimedia, bonus pack, manual). Doing it this way shouldn't make it download again. ~SDC~
Woohoo...for anyone else who wondered (or was I the only ignorant one?): http://www.nvr.navy.mil/class.htm ~SDC~
Working on that...so far I've discovered that they also use "CC" for battlecruiser. ~SDC~
Me counts # of "b"s in "battleship" and asks again...what's a "bb"? ~SDC~
