Windows 7 issue - Iwo Jim - 06-21-2010 I just upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 now the colors in WW2 and MBT are jumbled this happened occaionally with Vista but using Alt+Esc then restoring the game window would correct this but not so with Windows 7, anyone know how to correct this? RE: Windows 7 issue - Weasel - 06-22-2010 Run the game in windowed mode and it will be ok, that is what I had to do. RE: Windows 7 issue - Gila - 06-30-2010 There are some supposed fixes on the shrapnel site,no idea if they work or not(still on XP),but many are haveing the same problem. Good luck. RE: Windows 7 issue - Weasel - 06-30-2010 It runs fine if you run it as windowed, no need to use XP mode or anything else, just go into the SP game options and switch to windowed. RE: Windows 7 issue - Imp - 06-30-2010 Try this link but as Weasel said windowed mode should cure it. Also gives an unstretched view if you are on a widescreen monitor till the support for them comes out. https://www.theblitz.club/message_boards/showthread.php?tid=55541 RE: Windows 7 issue - Iwo Jim - 07-01-2010 (06-30-2010, 12:13 PM)Weasel Wrote: It runs fine if you run it as windowed, no need to use XP mode or anything else, just go into the SP game options and switch to windowed. Yeah I know but I hate playing it in windowed mode (06-30-2010, 08:29 PM)Imp Wrote: Try this link but as Weasel said windowed mode should cure it. Ok the fixed worked for MBT I can play full screen with normal colors but its not working for WW2 should the fix work for WW2 also? Sweeeet.......got it working with both MBT and WW2 you have to edit the fix with notepad replace WinSPMBT.exe with WinSPWW2.exe then it works fine.........thanks for the help.....:bow:.......... 
RE: Windows 7 issue - Weasel - 07-02-2010 I prefer not playing windowed either, so I will go with the fix too. Although after playing for a month I am use to the poorer performance (mainly scrolling).

Although after playing for a month I am use to the poorer performance (mainly scrolling). I'm still experiencing a little bit of a lag in game play but it's tolerable RE: Windows 7 issue - Imp - 07-02-2010 I did not like windowed mode either but if you adjust the prefs slightly it works fine. Main problem I was having was scrolling to but works fine now & can keep an eye on other stuff without alt tabing all the time. RE: Windows 7 issue - Iwo Jim - 07-04-2010 One issue in using this fix is if you use Alt+Esc to minimize the game like before it completely crashes your system, I've also had a couple of instances where game freezes up but not sure if that is related to the fix or not |
