Window Size - Public Beta - Build 1108r6e

Post by CPOCMAN »

I just uploaded and installed the public beta. However, when I run it, it creates it into a window that I cannot expand to maximize its size to my screensize. How can I go about getting it to expand or is there a switch that I need to do? Right now I have the program under my "D:\Matrix Games\Admirals Edition\Beta2\War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe" -w -px1900 -py1280?

I attached a screenshot to better explain what I am stating above.

Switch -f for -w and set px/py to your native monitor resolution.

Look at the last part of your command line. The "-" characters might not be actual dashes. What I mean is that the PDF manual that came with the game auto-substituted a different character for aesthetic purposes, one that looks almost identical to a dash. When a player uses cut and paste to put in the parameters this causes a problem.

If that is the problem the fix is simple: just edit those parameters, deleting the "-" and retyping it. Save your changes then try to run the shortcut again.

It worked! Really appreciate the help. Making changes to "f" vice "w" and the dashes changed the screen size. Thanks again!
