Re: Patch to Deluxe 1.95 Available!
I agree for the most part. If it contained something in addition like special setup features or a mod launcher than it would be fine. I understand why he probably put it in, but it's introducing other problems now...

Re: Patch to Deluxe 1.95 Available!
It was an inovation added because too many dumb asses could not figure out how to start the game. I agree, it is an un-needed extra step that only serves to piss people off. No offense Aaron, we all know your just trying to make the low brow folks happy.

Re: Patch to Deluxe 1.95 Available!
Well should we wait to see what Aaron does here, or go ahead and update our mods?

Re: Patch to Deluxe 1.95 Available!
Ummm.... what? You still have to click on the same icon to get to the new menu that you would click on to load it before. It does not make starting the game easier. It does make it easier to see that there is a readme and a manual and such, since you see them just by launching the shortcut in the start menu.

Re: Patch to Deluxe 1.95 Available!
If I were you AT I'd update the STmod at least to try and counter the pending error reports you'll get.
I'd also think the game would revert to the default image is it wasn't present as it would with other picture folders like planets etc.

Re: Patch to Deluxe 1.95 Available!
Thanks CK for the update on how to address this bug. I tell you had my system wigging out pretty damn bad, my Desk top was flickering and what not. It had to kill SEIV via the alt/ctl/del command screen.
After reading your fix, it was easy enough to do. Thanks again. Update posted. And thank you for helping with the players problem in the SE.net forum. You nailed it on the head when you said he just installed the patch without first having installed the full version of the game.
I went over board with my response, I guess the uporic feeling I am currently having as a result of the new meds for the back pain, is effecting my desire to over type my replies to simple problems and questions.
Much like I am doing now.
Thanks again.

Re: Patch to Deluxe 1.95 Available!
The screen will do that flicker thing when you try and close the start menu with a right click from the task bar...

Re: Patch to Deluxe 1.95 Available!
It will also do it if your new image is not the correct size. Oops. So much for using a custom image, for now.

That's not true. You can use a custom size - the min size for correct display is ~392x536. The flicker issue only results when you try and close the start menu using right-click from the taskbar.
It also appears the patch has been taken down from Strategy First - I wonder if MM is making a few fixes... |
